Pirelli Cinturato All Season+ vs Vredestein Quatrac — Compared

“I would actually disagree with that. All OEM tires are bad. But those Japanese Turanza EL450 are one of the better ones out there. They were super harsh in the beginning, got better over time. Still quite stiff and all that. However there are two things to point out: You got a slightly wider tire. If you know what you are doing, then good for you. For others, I'd generally suggest to stay with OEM sizing (yes there are barely any tires available in that size). Pointless to compare soft All Weather tires with Eco-specific All-Season tires. Those eco all seasons always will be stiffer. For others, may I suggest Vredestein Quatrac Pro, they are available in the factory size and I run them on my other car - they are amazing and IMO much better than CrossClimate2”

“23 Model Y LR....just did my first tire change at 41k miles from stock Contis to Vredestein Quatrac Pro+. Better all the way around, no foam. There is not much of a road noise difference, maybe a bit louder going over concrete sections on some highways. I don't buy into the foam theory. Noise comes from tire composition and tread hitting varying surfaces. Every tire will give a different sound and sound level, foam or not.”

“I had been looking at summer tires due to the fact the Toyo are too. Was looking at these: They get decent reviews The rolling restistance and grip are good too. It is rated as having better grip in the wet than the Vredestein Quatrac: Would have thought the all weather would have better wet grip? Will make a decision tomorrow. I'm in on west of Ireland coast. It's wet rarely icy here, snow would be extreme -only once got proper snow in the last 15 years - the beast from east! Cheers”
