I’m a winter tire guy. Have been since my MK6 TDI. I’ve never been stuck. With the manual transmission and grabby tires, I just rip through that shit. Vredstein set for me. “Performance” winter set.
I commuted 100 miles a day in my CX5 in snowy Maine. I had a 6speed manual transmission and snow tires and never had a problem.
I did not end up purchasing Vredestein (I was considering the HT), but it was the only tire I felt was worth the money below $250/tire that I was looking at, which was Continentals, Pirellis, and MIchelins. Agree they rate much better than similarly or cheaper-priced tires in most rankings.
Vredstein Quatrac Pro. Great tire for the money, really quiet, a lot cheaper than the equvalent Michelins.
I put a set of Vredestein Hypertrac Pro on my daily driver about 5k miles ago.\n\nI am very impressed with the Vreds. They don't slip at all on wet pavement. They are significantly quieter, ride smoother, and were significantly cheaper than the CrossClimates. They handle AMAZING. This is my first \"sport\" tire though, but they really transformed the character of my car.
255/35-19 vredestein wintrac pro is what i use. looks like they replaced it this year with the pro+ but they're great performance winters.
Eu am Vredestein Wintrac pe a mea, pana acum n-am avut deloc probleme pe zapada/gheata si anul asta fac 5 ani.
ovu godinu je ovo vredestein snowtrac 5. Za moje dimenzije skoro nema boljih.
Anyway, for what it is worth, I tried the 275/35ZR-21 Vredestein Ultrac Vorti+ XL both on and off track earlier this year. It is still a summer performance tire. Off track, I was seeing slightly improved efficiency over the factory P Zero, but the Ultras were slightly noisy on rougher roads (no foam inserts); on the track, for the first couple of laps, they were decent (plenty good enough for spirited driving), but driving to the max lap after lap they got squirrely and very vocal.
We’ve had a HORRIBLE experience with Vredestein tires. We put them on my son’s Acura TSX, and 20,000 miles later all four are shot and need to be replaced. The front two are BALD. And by “bald” I mean BALD all the way across the tire.
