Best test result: #1 of 14 in 2020 Auto Bild All Season Tyre Test (wear)
“Swapping shoes Well I cooked my summer tires (Michelin PS4's) a little earlier than planned. They were down to the belts... Instead of buying new tires for only a month or two, Im putting my snow tires on early. Probably gonna get roasted for doing so but oh well. Snow tires are Vredestein Quatrac Pro's. They were absolutely amazing in the snow last year. I had to turn traction control to sport just to get them to break loose and have any fun. They are also very good in the rain, tho they feel kinda "loose" on dry pavement when pushing them hard.”

Tire A
Vredestein Quatrac
Positive
Community opinion on the Vredestein Quatrac (including Pro and Pro+ models) is largely positive, with drivers frequently praising them as a comfortable, quieter, and more budget-friendly alternative to premium tires like the Michelin CrossClimate 2. Users highlight excellent wet and dry traction along with a smooth ride, though opinions are mixed regarding their long-term treadwear and performance in deep snow.
Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements), each result compared with every other tire in the same test and newer tests counting more. 40% comes from owner reviews found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates. Both use one scale: the average tested tire gets 70, the best 100. When a tire has only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from the other and the score stays closer to average; with no road test and fewer than five owner reviews it gets no score yet.
