I have them on my 2019 Audi A4. We often have clear roads in the winter here in Boston, so I buy performance winter tires. The Wintracs have been excellent. They are fairly quiet and they handle well in all of the winter conditions that I’ve encountered.
My V60PE has Vredstein Wintrac Pros .. have not used them in the snow, but they feel great in the dry. Not summer performance tires, but stable and drive really well.
These are a great tire and maintain the proper OD on a 15x7 wheel
I have a set of these, 6 years. Never a single issue. They are a little harder but nothing like what you would expect from the comments.
I’m replacing them tomorrow with a new set 6 years to the day from when I 1st put them on.
They are amazing tires. Hands down the best I have ever owned in 30 years of driving.
Nitto tires use a lot of the same tech as Toyo (who owns them) so you are just seeing a decent AT truck tire wearing like it should. All the no grip comments are funny this is a truck tire not a sport tire. Nitto has a winter line as well that is great and very inexpensive.
12000 miles on vredestein hitrac as 245/60/18 on my car. Love them so far.
I just in installed 4 of the Vredestein Quatrac Pro from TireRack. They've been on for 2 weeks and initial impressions are much improved over the Giti's. They also have the 3PMSF symbol as well.
Replaced stock Bridgestones with Vredestein Hypertrack [awesome grip]
Good:
Excellent on ice for non studded
God like handling in the snow. Rivals the Michelins. This tire was seriously impressive. If it wasn't for the drawback I experienced below this tire would be a no brainer
VERY good handling on ice
Bad:
Dangerous handling during heavy rains. Aquaplaned very easily. I had a small light car. If you get these tires, remember this post and be cautious the first few rains until you get a feel for them. It may be that my car that was light for the thread design (2512 lbs with short wheelbase)
Tire wear goes fast on dry hot pavement
Noisiest tire I've had on my vehicle to date
I have these on my Jeep. They are downright dangerous on anything but dry pavement.
