Scale of scores: Highest lowest

Vredestein Snowtrac 5 is a premium tyre designed for everyday driving in the winter season. The model guarantees a high level of safety, durability and excellent performance on any type of surface.

Vredestein Snowtrac 5 provides driving comfort thanks to optimized lateral grooves in the tread that improve the stability of the tyre, and thus ensure optimum contact with the road which helps track driving precision when negotiating bends.

This model has a directional tread pattern characterized by grooves in the shape of the letter "V" that help fast water drainage from under the front tyre and effective overall drying of the tyre. This model provides protection against aquaplaning thanks to a circular contact surface area and stepped longitudinal grooves.

Vredestein Snowtrac 5 has a central continuous groove achieved by unique geometric incisions in the central zone of the tread which delivers better driving stability. Increased comfort and better steering wheel to tyre communication is also enhanced by this design. Long blades of unequal size deliver improved grip on typical winter roads. Placing them in different directions ensures short braking distances on wet, icy and snowy roads. Compared with the previous model, Vredestein Snowtrac 3, the total length of the deep sipes has been increased by more than 30%.

Vredestein Snowtrac 5 uses a stealth technology design that provides acoustic comfort and sound absorption by exploiting a large area of longitudinal and lateral grooves.

Vredestein is a Dutch company, which supplies the market with premium tyres. They are characterized by high quality, excellent performance and pleasure of use. The company makes tyres for passenger cars, retro vehicles, trucks, vans, 4x4 vehicles, bicycles and farm machinery. They have factories in The Netherlands, Thailand, India and Indonesia. Currently Vredestein belongs to the group Apollo Tyres Ltd.

    Opinion from outside the UK

    I have summer tyres from this manufacturer, which I'm very pleased with. When it comes to winter I previously used the Pirelli Carving Edge and I have to admit that Vredestains are not able to compete with them, despite the tread of the same type (symmetrical, directional). It is a different class of tyres though. Someone wrote somewhere that these tyres are meant to be for compact cars, relatively light and maybe there is something in it. I would have to try to actually make an opinion on it, however in my case these tyres lose their grip quite fast even in dry conditions so it may be though. It just doesn't go with my car. I'm also not a huge fun of the sound that they make outside of the car while driving in the rain, this is probably caused by the discharge of water from under the wheels. Although I must admit that they very nicely suppress inequality of the road. I recommend to those with light cars. Read more Collapse

    Opinion from outside the UK

    I would definitely recommend. I have been going since the beginning of the winter season 2014-2015 (skoda superb combi) tires excel sensational, mud, snow, rain, dry surface. The most surprised me the noise level, the assumption can not hear the difference between a summer tire (continental was) very quiet. I did not pay too much attention to the label 69dB but today as I rode the same Superb but with Pirelli tires (tires and the car new in February 2015) and Pirelli have checked 72dB but it is terribly tragic howl. Therefore Snowtrac5 recommend for people who drive cars silent, hear me hum of the engine and not the tire howl. Read more Collapse

    Opinion from outside the UK

    Tyre perfectly holds on to the road both in dry and wet conditions, and in addition it is very quiet. I am very positively surprised by this tyre. Although the label says something else I think they are slightly corrupted and make this tyre to be worst than it is in reality. I have not had the opportunity to see this tyre in the snow yet, but when I do I'll share the information how it behaves. Read more Collapse

    Opinion from outside the UK

    After one season and about 8000 miles I've noticed that the tyre is quite loud and I will be able to use it maybe a half of next season. Large tread wear, which should indicate a good grip on snow and ice but no, unfortunately not. I've read many good reviews on it and I was expecting more. I was expecting a cool, affordable tyres, but they disappointed me. Perhaps I had too big expectations. Read more Collapse

    Opinion from outside the UK

    Honestly, I hesitated to buy these tyres because of the label (E, C). But now after driving 9000 miles I recommend this tyre to anyone who is looking for a winter tyre that is quiet and holds on to the road very well in dry and wet conditions. It's sensational on snow and slush. I am very happy with this purchase. For the summer season I'll probably also buy something from this manufacturer. Read more Collapse

    Have had these tyres on my SQ5 for over a year now and put over 15000 miles on them and still have 6mm of tread. They are great confidence givers on wet, icy,slushy and snowy roads but if pushing very hard on dry roads they can loose a bit of grip but that said I would definitely fit another set.

    Opinion from outside the UK

    Very honest tire for the price range with good cornering grip where it enhances dynamic and lively driving, on cold and wet asphalts. Slightly lower performance on snowy roads, where there is a lack of response on traction. In relation to the consumption of the tread, where in 3 months have been traveled about 12,000 km, on mainly mountain roads, can be said very good because the pieces have remained almost unchanged. In short, in a good tire, to which I would rate 8 out of 10. Read more Collapse

    In my opinion Vredestein Snowtrac 5 is very quiet even though it is a winter tire, when driving in the snow the most fundamental factor is safety. Provides an excellent grip in both dry and wet braking is impressive. It looks good and I love that. Read more Collapse
