I’ve run Vredestein Quatrac Pros and Pro+ on two different cars and loved them. They are fine in snow, obviously not a snow tire but better than stock all seasons. Where they really shine is in the rain. One of the best rain tires out.
I ended up getting a set of 19" CX70 wheels from a lower trim level for my Turbo S, and bought a set of Vredestein Pinza H/T tires for those rims. Plus, these 19" tires ride so much better than the 21's!!
Do some research if you haven't heard of Vredestein tires. These things are incredible in the snow and routinely get excellent reviews.
I did the same after a set of Vredsteins (which were still good tires). Much quieter.
My mini cooper (FWD like your Prius) is a beast in the snow with winter tires. WINTER tires, not just all seasons.
Stick with your Vredesteins. I live in the Great White North and swear by the quatrac's. You're not going to find a better value tire.
if you just need tires for street use and not break the bank, vredestein quatrac are the best all season tires i've ever ran (94'). and they worked great when i lived in Oregon and handled snow pretty well for what it was.
Very quiet, good wearing (I never expect much more than 40K of all weather usefulness no matter what the warranty says), and very good snow traction.
I've got these on my Tesla (Vredstein Wintrac Pro XL 235/40R-19) and I've been pretty underwhelmed by their performance in snow. Many of the reviews I read said they're more like halfway between an all-season tire and a true winter tire, and that feels about right to me, as they drive just fine in mild conditions but slide around a lot in the snow.
My rebate was denied as my invoice failed audit, currently in a battle with Vredestein...also 2 put of 4 tires I got were defective, stay away and get Michelins...
