Vredestein Quatrac Pro+ vs Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015 — Compared

“I just put the Vrederstein Quatrac Pro+ on my 24 Mini Countryman S All4, replacing the Pirelli runflats that were good tires, but kinda loud and you could feel every imperfection in the road. I don't have a lot of miles on em yet, but they are definitely quieter and more comfortable. I've noticed that they do like to lose a little bit of air, don't know if it's the tires or the valve stems, or the installer didn't seal the bead on em good enough. Will monitor it and if it keeps up, I'll take em back and have em checked. So far I like them.”

“Just over 2k miles into using the Quatrac Pro+ in moderate to freezing temps and so far everything I noticed before stands, better ride and less noise. They definitely handle snow better, and that was to be expected from the winter rating on these tires , but also they seem to be getting better range. But because I haven't driven in hotter weather yet I'll have to report in in a couple months after Summer is over. So far I'm super impressed and happy with this upgrade. 100% recommending these tires as long as the Summer driving doesn't tank the range.”

“I got the Vredestein Quatrac Pro+ and am very happy with them. Had them also on the car before. Good dry and wet grip, snow grip is not the best. They are more on the summer tire side instead of winter tire side. They have an asymmetric pattern, so sawtooth formation is not happening. And they are quiet. That's what I wanted, good performance on dry and wet roads and acceptable performance on snow for the 3-4 days a year of snow on the road. My experience with other tires : Continental summer tires are too soft, first year they are great but year after year they become slippery on wet ground and wear and tear is too much when driving fast around corners. Goodyear all season tires are also on the comfortable side, good in winter, slow in summer. And they produce sawtooth after a while. Bridgestone get slippery on wet ground, but great on dry ground, tend to be loud. But all that depends on the car and how fast you drive ;-)”

“Changing tires (General Grabber AT3 vs Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015) Halloo I am about to pick my RR next month from the dealer and I am thinking if it is a good idea to change tires. Here is the context: I am buying the RR because I always wanted to drive a truck and I love American cars in general (I also have Mustang s197 V8). In fact I want to switch from Wrangler Sahara, which is a great car BTW, however after 4 years and only 20.000 miles I know I miss more comfort. The rest of my family even more ;-) 95% of my trips is on reagular roads, city cruising. Sometimes some rural paths (no heavy offroading). My Wrangler came with Duelers, which I replaced with Yokohama A/T G015. The difference was night and day as far as wet and cold. Here in POLAND we have two seasons: it is either hot and wet or cold and wet. Winter in my area is pretty light, however I go to the mountains once a year. So the question is: As I do not know how General Grabber AT3 works, but I trust Yokohoma G015, is the change the tires worth it?”

“I just put the G015 's on 2018 Outback . The harsh ride hurts my wife's back. I will trade them in for something that is mostly for a smooth ride. It's funny, I put the LT version on my Expedition and it's great. I suppose the shock valving is way different between the 2 vehicles. I just hope Yokohama 's 30 day trial is for real.”

“Tires RFID Tags I’ve been looking for a set of Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015 tires and contacted several shops while also checking prices online. I was surprised by how much the prices varied between sellers. I then contacted Juma Al Majid, which I think is the official dealer in the UAE. Their price was one of the highest I found. When I mentioned that I had found significantly cheaper options elsewhere, they asked me what prices I have found. After I shared the price range, they seemed surprised and advised me to make sure the tires had RFID tags. After looking into it, I understood that these tags are related to tire identification and compliance with UAE requirements. So, Are tires without RFID tags potentially less suitable for UAE conditions or more prone to damage? Or could they be essentially the same tires, with the price difference simply reflecting different sourcing, importation, or compliance costs? Read more”
