Vredestein Quatrac review

“You won't find a true performance type tyre at 185/70 as it's just not a profile which is normally associated with performance cars. But as has been said elsewhere it is still the best profile for a fast road set up on a 105. I'd also support vredestein too, I use quatracs which are hybrid tyre designed as a compromise between a snow and a winter, they work well all year round. Vred also do a more summer biased tyre now which wasn't available at 185/70 until fairly recently I expect they would be my choice now. Edit, just checked they are called spotrtrac5 Not sure about vred classics being used in classic rallying, most people I know use either snowtrac3 or quatracs tout of a vreds range, though the rules changed at the start of last year which allowed 65 profiles to be used which had opened up more choice.”

“I just put on a set of Vredestein Quatrac 205/50 R16 from Tire Rack. I am in central Iowa and plan on driving with them all winter.”

“Well the wheels are worth roughly $400-500 by themselves in "drive home and remove" condition. Could be a little higher or lower depending on the weather and the tides. Those particular tires look like about $232 each if it's 215/40/18 so half that for all 4 roughly is $500. I sold my 18" premium set off the new car for $1100 but wheels and tires were separated. Would have been $1200 but the doofus who separated the wheels and tires scratched them a little bit so I lowered it some. $372 is much too low on Ebay but $1200 is a good start point in here. They are slightly used but I still wouldn't settle for less than $800 and instead just sit on them until that happens. Don't let people tell you their worthless:”

“How much life left? Vredestein Quatrac all-season tire with over 30.000miles Hi, I have been driving on these Vredestein Quatrac all-season for over 2 years and accumulated over 30.000miles/50.000kms. I read that these tires typically lasts until these milage, however, looking at the tires there seems to be still quite a bit of life left. I measered and got around of 5mm of tread left at the lowest point. Is this normal for an all-season tire to last this long? And how much life do you think these tires have left? Thanks!”

“I had Vredestein Quatracs on my Escape. Best tire I’ve ever had across any vehicle. Got them from tire rack. Edit: I was on track to get at least the rated lifespan out of them if not more despite the fact I never rotate tires and I'm sometimes quite hard on my vehicles (driving fast, assertively, to put it nicely). But I sold the vehicle while they still had lots of life left. When it comes time for tires on the Volt I’ve pretty much already decided on Vredestein as well!”

“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”
