Excellent tyre to use in dry conditions. They don't slip on turns. Behaves appropriately on wet. The car doesn't lose control when turning and you don't have to worry about aquaplanning too soon. When it comes to winter conditions, on a slightly iced road (after a night frost, for instance, I'm not talking about total ice), the Vredestein Wintrac Xtreme S behaves very well and grips wherever it can. Directs slush from beneath tyres efficiently. My concerns are about driving on snow, on a road covered with snow, not salted, in subzero temperatures. It's okay when I drive mildly, but any tighter maneouvres, even in slow, urban speeds ends up with digging snow. Still, details aside, I really recommend the Vredestein Wintrac Xtreme S.

Satisfied with the tyre, good brand, used on any type of road and season. Only drawback, it makes a little noise on dry and temperature above 10 ° / 15 °.

For a few cars and many winter tyres I would classify this somewhere in the middle. Reading the opinions of other users quoting the names of "technology" used in these tyres, I felt a desire to share my feelings. So nothing special, the premium class is far away, but if someone is looking for tires at a reasonable price which works well in our road conditions, I can recommend it.
