Vredestein Quatrac 5

Vredestein Quatrac 5 are my first all-season tyres. I’ve decided for this alternative with the hope that the current technological progress will provide me with a few years of safe use, and I will finally avoid queuing for the fitting statin twice a year. I drive a small Fiesta MK6, covering about 12k km a year - mainly urban driving. After a half a year of use (including winter) Ima positively surprised. Asymmetric winter and summer tread. In the "dry" conditions, there are no problems. It is quiet, it sticks well to the road, so far resistant to abrasion. The situation is similar in the case of wet conditions, where in the case of smooth, less aggressive driving, I did not feel any slips, no control. I feel very confident in the car. Last winter I was a little disappointed, because the nature was really kind. It is true that snow appeared several times, but in quantities "below average" and I cannot consider it as a testing ground for tyres. Nevertheless, I did not feel any difference to previous cold-weather (Dębica Frigo 2). The Vredestein Quatrac 5 has not let me down yet and I hope it will stay that way. I recommend with a clear conscience. Read more Collapse

Very good tyres for the money. Brilliant for the wet and windy conditions of the UK and good in the extreme winter too. Have done over 10.000 miles on them since January and still good for another 10 so great on the long performance and value for money. No more carrying 2 sets of tyres for winter and summer anymore for me. I live 400 metres up in the valleys of Wales and drive all over the southwest. Tyres get the extremes of all conditions. As good as the best winter tyres and 80 per cent as good as the best brand of summer tyres. Will slide very slightly in very hot dry dusty roads but then again what tyres don't. In the rain these are unbeatable which is 50 per cent of the U.K. a climate Read more Collapse

I hope to get another winter out of them if I'm careful in the next few months. They didn't see too much heavy snow last winter (skiing in France) so can't be too definitive on that. ~They did get worn over the summer (rather hot at times) and seemed to cope well, although wear was probably a little higher than if Id changed to summer tyres. Oversteer could be a problem for some, but possibly it also depends on the car. My advice would be to get two on the front and if not happy just switch them to the back. Read more Collapse

I live in a very rural location where the roads are poorly maintained with frequent potholes caused by continual heavy rain. The tyres have performed very well with no sign of slippage or any feeling of losing control. Road noise seems to have only marginally increased over my previous standard tyres but this is hard to judge as the tyre treads were wearing thin when they were replaced. Overall I have been satisfied with the cost/performance of these tyres and will certainly look at buying them again. Read more Collapse

A search of four seasons certified mountain and 18 inches, there is almost nothing on the market, I opted for this tire which was voted No. 1 by AutoBild in 2015, an international benchmark motor journal. In the wet I no longer recognize my vehicle as it gained security / adhesion compared to the old. I tested it in the Massif Central on dubious road this winter, and the snow parks no complaints. too bad for national Bibendum who will not release his climate in 18 inch. Read more Collapse

Lately I’ve always bought four-seasons set of tyres of this manufacturer and I have always had a great time. I am sure that this also, recently bought and not yet tried on the snow, do not disappoint me I have no problem to declare, after more than a million kilometres travelled by various means, that these are the best of the brands in absolute.

Fuel consumption appears to be no different to the previous Michelin Primacy tyres though, road noise is very slightly higher. It's too early to say about longevity, but so far wear looks acceptable for the mileage. Good grip on forestry roads, but as we have had such a mild winter, there has been no opportunity to test performance on snow or ice. Read more Collapse

I have already had occasion to try them during a snowfall. Excellent grip thanks to all-wheel drive and the fact that they are new. The main advantage of having eliminated the second set of tyres with their problems related to disassembly and reassembly at the beginning and end of the season and spending notably due to the circles. Read more Collapse

Tyres very well stick to the road no matter if the surface is dry, wet or during snowfall. Of course in the winter when driving steady, uses tyres in the summer and winter and I'm happy to recommend others if someone does not do too many kilometres in the season I can say that all season tyres are a good choice. Read more Collapse

They have a good grip on all the surfaces even if they will never be as specific tires for the season, but they are a good compromise for those who do not want to have two sets of tires, are very quiet and do not increase the fuel consumption, for duration for now I cannot yet evaluate them Read more Collapse

Brought these for my daugher so safety was important. She has 60 mile round trip to work and a bust social life. Not sure how long these would last tramping up and down motorways all day but they are great for A road and county roads. Really pleased and pleasantly suprised with them Read more Collapse

I think that these are high quality tyres. They have greatly influenced driving comfort as well as the quietness of the car interior, they do not create any noise or other unpleasant sounds during use, even at higher speeds. I rate them very good. Read more Collapse

Perfectly drains water and mud. Runs smoothly in the sand and snow (of course, if not desert and not Alps :)) Tyres stick to the road like glued. For our roads, a perfect purchase, we forget about changing tyres every winter and summer. Read more Collapse

I purchased and exchanged Vredestein Quatrac 5 tyres in August 2017. After driving about 4k km from August to the end of March, I'm happy with them. The side profile of the tyre is very interesting and extraordinary. I would recommend. Read more Collapse

I needed a lot of time to break this mental barrier which concerned switching summer to all-season tyres. After driving about 10,000 km from July to March and testing them in different situations, I know that I made the right choice. Read more Collapse

I have always found Vredestien tyres to be excellent in all weathers. I have used quatrac or snowtrac tyres for approx 14 years and can't find better. I changed brands once to my cost and have remained with Vredestien since. Read more Collapse

4000 miles on these tyres, mostly on dry roads with several days driving on moderate snow covered roads. I find the tyres performed well in all conditions. Too early yet to comment on wear.i would buy these tyres again. Read more Collapse

Quiet tyres, which meet my expectations . On icy surfaces they are doing ok. No difference in fuel consumption between these and summer tyres. I think that's perfect balance between price and quality. Read more Collapse

I am fully satisfied with that tyres. Those are perfect for the weather like the one in West-North UK, where the summer temperatures are not so high, winter is soft without lots of snow. Perfect. Read more Collapse

Honestly I would give 1 point more for quadrac 3 tyre for the behavior on wet conditions.The rest is already revelation: snow, start and braking on dry, stability of driving and silence inside. Read more Collapse

As in the summary - I chose all-season tyres and it is worth paying a little extra for safety (e.g. on slippery surfaces) and comfort. The appearance is also ok (16''). Read more Collapse

No complaints but still evaluating, up to now they are a massive improvement on the original Pirelli's fitted by Mercedes. Better grip, quieter and smoother ride. Read more Collapse

Have been riding on Vredestein tyres for many years and this tyre has never disappointed me. With normal driving behavior, i rode over 50.000 km on these ones. Read more Collapse

I recommend these tyres just because they are good but also because they are all-season and you do not have the problem of having to change tyres twice a year Read more Collapse

Great tyres with a performance and overall handling better than in budget tyres. I can highly recommend these tyres and will happily buy the again. Read more Collapse
