I've enjoyed them on my RS3 last winter. Much better than ice & snow Blizzaks, but this is my first experience with a performance winter tire.
I bought a set of these for the wifes EOS maybe 2 years ago from tirerack and they made a huge improvement compared to what she had, i think kumho's. Less road noise, more grip all around.
I put a set of Vredestein Quatracs on my wife's MB E350 4matic. They absolutely transformed the car for the better. I'd like to find some for my GTI. I highly recommend them.
I bought these tires based on Tire Rack's review and it is spot on. The one word in the review that stuck with me and I'd have to agree with is luxurious. They feel that way. They are clear to me the best tires I've ever owned. And, I have been driving for more than 45 years. They are quiet, handle really well in both dry and wet.
Go with the Vredestein; significantly underappreciated tires and an incredible value
If you want something more laid back like tires that should have come from the factory except actually good, it's the Vredestein. More of a cruising tire, really.
I went with 245/45R18 Vredestein Wintrac Pro -- been very happy with two winters so far!
Have about 5k on the Vredestein quatrac pro xl, on the 17" oem wheels (alltrack s), so far I am pretty happy with them. I have driven them through some serious snow and I would say they perform noticeably better than the oem falkens. They handle the dry pretty well too. They don't squeal as much as the falkens did which is nice, I feel like overall just much better traction. These are the nicest tires I have purchased for one of my vehicles so far.
I decided to get the Vredestein Quatrac Pro tires for my 2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia. Great tires so far. Will consider them when I need new tires on my 2018 VW Tiguan.
I think you should skip the Vredstreins, they are kinda soft sidewalls and got lackluster results here in Stowe from the local tire dealers.
