I have Sailun Terra Max tires on my chevy 2500 and they're great!
I bought the Vredestein Quatrac Pro based on that Tire Rack review.
They are the most comfortable, satisfying feeling tires I have ever driven in my life. The ride quality, quietness, and general polished feel are unmatched. They have damn near Michelin A/S 3+ and Conti DWS06 dry and wet traction despite being about 4 performance classes down. They are actually very good in snow/ice as well. Been ripping through the Canadian winter on them with no complaints.
I have Vredestein on my 2008 Infiniti G35X and they’re an excellent all around tire. Highly recommend.
Have Vredestein winter tires on. Drove up the steepest hill in the neighborhood - very very good!
also, no comparo w/the Firestones, but I'm on the Wintrac Pros right now, driving in California, and they're fine in warm/dry conditions. I put them on since I'm going back and forth over the passes back to WA, where I am full time. For a winter/snowbird tire that's not terrible in the dry and good in the wet, I can definitely recommend these.
I have the 225/40-18 Vredesteins on my 7.5R. I can't compare to the Firestones directly, but I'm very happy with the Vredesteins. After breaking them in I'm quite happy with how well they stick in the dry, and their performance in ~8" of snow was outstanding.
They are good, but the tests are misleading here. A Y-rated UHP tire is being compared to V-rated Touring tires. You’ll see those Vredesteins have only a 400 UTQG so don’t expect mileage here as compared to other tires in the test.
I am running the Quatrac Pros on my R (225/45 18), and have been really happy with them. I ended up running them year round. They are a really impressive tire.
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
Sailuns are cheap Chinese crap.
