Vredestein, best tyre you've never heard of! I'm running the wintrac pros rn and I will recommend them to everyone for winters. Perfect balance between performance and snow use!!
Just got the Vredestein Quatrac Pro tires. Amazing grip and handling. They are an XL tire and they are also rated for extreme winter conditions.
we just installed a set of Vredestein Quatrac Pro tires on my sons 2005 Pontiac Vibe. He absolutely LOVES the tires!! I have ALWAYS been a strong believer in a good set of dedicated snow tire, however these tires seem to be the best of both worlds. I am seriously considering purchasing a set for my 2003 Passat W8!
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.
Unfortunately I’ve learned my own lesson that the ratings aren’t entirely accurate.
I got the Quadtracs based on the ratings and they are neither quieter nor offer more traction than the stock primacys
