To me they are number 1! The only drawback is that the Vredestein Xtreme Wintrac smells of burnt rubber when driving when it is dry. I have them on the BMW E60 LCI 2007 270PS (600nm).

When the snow came, it was like driving a 4x4. 1-10 hill no problem.

very good tires, a little "hollow" on a dry, warm asphalt; great exercise in such Skoda superb 4x4; nice look

I don't think you could call Vredestein Xtreme Wintrac a cheap tyre, unless you find some bargain. It is definitely no worse than the big brands. It is rather quiet as well, except for slush. Outstanding handling in corners and it is really hard to lose grip, even on purpose. It is a liitle bit worse when pulling off in deep snow and when you brake too hard it will start sliding as well.

I found myself very well with these tires (it is the second time that I take), I am versatile enough: highway, dirt, snow, ice ... a little noisy. The only weak spot: they lose a bit of wet grip when temperatures rise ... Anyway no doubt recommend them.

These tyres are ok, don't think they give as much grip as Dunlop SP winter tyres I had on a previus vehicle, but for price these do the trick.

I was pleasantly surprised by how this tyre behaves in various conditions. In corners Vredestein Xtreme Wintrac is way better than most sumer tyres! The rear ones lasted for one season only, but then again the car has like 400 nm of torque. It is a great tyre no matter what the surface. Even Michlins pilot alpins were not as good as this Vredestein is.

Not driven much on snow, but as an all round tyre for the winter wet/ice etc. These are as good as any I've had before
