Tires Firestone or Vredestein
I got about 5k miles on my Firestone X/Ts and love them. Live in northern New England and they crush the snow. Smooth on the highway minimal sound. Very light weight for an E load rating. Highly recommend
I have Firestone indy500s on my GT,700 rwhp. Hard to beat the price
Been running these on my Q7 the last few winters. I’m in MA and it seems like we rarely get snow anymore, and the dry performance feels pretty on par with my all seasons. Just got back from a trip to VT where it was insanely cold, icy, and snowy and did a fair bit of driving on unpaved unplowed roads with no issue. I even intentionally tried to break traction or get the ABS to trigger and it just refused.
Got some for the SQ5. Great performance in the snow, while still pretty good on dry pavement. A bit prone to aqua planning on heavy rain days. I do find them a bit noisy on dry pavement after a couple seasons though, but that could be a snow tire thing.
I have them on my SQ5. Agree with all the other comments, they’re excellent winter tires.
I’ve got those on my Miata. They’re insanely good, feels great on dry pavement unlike a lot of snow tires, and still performs well in the snow.
Best Winter tire I've had for sure. It's the perfect tire if snow isnt consistant but the cold temps are. Performs wonderfully on pavement while still maintaining excellent snow performance.
I have just purchased Vredestein Wintrac Pro+ winter tires for my Tesla Model 3 Performance. In this video I want to show you how much tire profile tread depth you get when you buy these Wintrac Pro Plus new tires from Vredestein. Also after the first miles/kilometers driving I will share with you my overall impressions of the noise that these Vredestein winter tires produce.
1990s Ford Explorer were pretty solid except for the pesky factory installed Firestone tires that would blow out at speed.
I’m barely getting 10k out of my Vredestein tires that TireRack said would be as good as the name brand. They aren’t.
