Tires Falken or Vredestein
I've got the Vredestein Hypertracs on my S60 T5, put about 1500 miles on them, so far so good. They came well reviewed to me from other enthusiasts. Car still breaks traction, but that's the nature of the car.
I use all-seasons, and I've had Vredestein, Michelin and now GoodYear on a V50. Michelin was the nicest, Vredestein was good too (and very local to me :-)) but bad for mileage.
I purchased the Vredestein Tires a few months ago from Tire Rack. They seem to be a good tire from what I can tell so far. They have performed well in the wet and dry and were sure-footed at high speeds. Compared to the other sets of tires I’ve had over the years, they seem to be one of the quieter ones.
The worlds best tire I have ever driven on. I have been buying tires for over 40 years and many times cruise control is set at 85mph, wet road, dry road, local road at 30mph or at 85 mph No other tire compares to Vredestein tires, plus almost NO road noise.
I do have a set of Falken Azenis RT615K+ tires on my Cabriolet, and they are nice tires. Sticky enough(200TW), but people are reporting lots of usage before they need replacement(16 people with 15-50K miles on these tires).
I have Vredestein wintrac pros on my P3. They are a good winter tire, albeit a bit loud.
We have run Falken Wildpeaks for many years now..we're on our fifth set. They have given us hundreds of thousands of miles on all kinds of roads, and all kinds of weather.
We put all-weather Vredestein tires on my wife’s car, and she was pleased with how they handled last winter.
The brand is positioned in the middle tier in its home market, and the Quatrac Pro is its most popular all-season tire. In Dutch tire tests it tends to end up at the bottom of the rankings, but it’s a popular choice regardless because of its cost and the fact that it’s a comfortable tire that wears pretty well.
Had a set of Falken AT3W's for a bit and I hated them in snow. Same with the KO2's.
