Tires Vredestein or WEST LAKE
A very solid tire for the money. Just behind Michelin, Conti, Pirelli.
Last set I got was Verdenstein. I've been very happy with them. Reasonable price, great grip and surprisingly quiet on the highway.
Been running these on my Q7 the last few winters. I’m in MA and it seems like we rarely get snow anymore, and the dry performance feels pretty on par with my all seasons. Just got back from a trip to VT where it was insanely cold, icy, and snowy and did a fair bit of driving on unpaved unplowed roads with no issue. I even intentionally tried to break traction or get the ABS to trigger and it just refused.
Got some for the SQ5. Great performance in the snow, while still pretty good on dry pavement. A bit prone to aqua planning on heavy rain days. I do find them a bit noisy on dry pavement after a couple seasons though, but that could be a snow tire thing.
I have them on my SQ5. Agree with all the other comments, they’re excellent winter tires.
I’ve got those on my Miata. They’re insanely good, feels great on dry pavement unlike a lot of snow tires, and still performs well in the snow.
I posted something similar today, is this a tyre brand specific issue or a coincidence Context I'm using same verdestein centuro.
Ran the Vredestein Wintrac Pro on my S3 last winter. They did fine. About the same as Michelin x-ice snows I had before. A little squirmy if you do any fun driving but that’s to be expected with a winter tire. They did surprisingly well on a frozen lake auto cross for a studless winter tire.
Și a luat fratele meu westlake acu 3 ani. Le a echipat pe un Mondeo mk4 și la prima zăpadă a ajuns în șanț..
I’m barely getting 10k out of my Vredestein tires that TireRack said would be as good as the name brand. They aren’t.
