Vredestein Quatrac 5 175/70 R14 88 T XL

Vredestein Quatrac 5 are my first all-season tyres. I decided to use this alternative with the belief that the current technological progress will give me a few years of safe use, and I will probably avoid queuing for the vulcanizer twice a year. I drive on the Fiesta MK6, traveling about 12,000 km a year, mostly around the city. After a little more than half a year of use (including winter), I have the most positive feelings. Asymmetric tyre (winter and summer tread). In the dry season, there are no problems. It is quiet, it adheres well to the road, so far resistant to abrasion. The situation is similar in the case of wet conditions, where in the case of a soft and less aggressive driving, I did not feel any slips, or lose of control. I feel very confident in the car. Last winter I was a little disappointed, because the weather was really nice. It is true that the snow has appeared several times, but in small quantities and I can not consider it as a test site for tyres. Nevertheless, I did not feel any difference from the previous cold weather (Dębica Frigo 2). The Vredestein Quatrac 5 has not let me down yet and I hope it stays that way. I recommend with a clear conscience. Read more Collapse

Very good tyres for this price. Brilliant for wet and windy conditions in the UK and good in the extreme winter. Have more than 10,000 miles on them since January and still good for another 10. Great on long performance and value for money. No more carrying two sets of tyres for winter and summer for me. I live 400 meters in the valleys of Wales and driving in the southwest. Tyres get the extremes of all conditions. As good as the best winter tyres and 80 percent as good as the best brand of summer tires. In the rain Vredestein Quatrac 5 is unbeatable which is 50 percent of the UK climate. Read more Collapse

Silence, silence and once again silence. That was the main thing which I expected from these tyres and I am not disappointed at all! Additionally driving comfort is really good. Traction is excellent as well. I can drive quite fast with same comfort level like on some lower speed. Sidewalls are strong enough if tyres are not used in difficult terrain. Perfect for normal city driving. Vredestein Quatrac 5 even looks nice. I did not test these tyres on snow only. Generally worth to recommend especially for drivers who value driving comfort.

In recent years I used to change tyres for sumer and winter season. This year I decided to try all season tyres for a first time. Vredestein Quatrac 5 was recommended to me in my garage. When I was driving my first kilometers on snow and wet ice I felt quite safe. I am not sure if I will use all year tyres in the future yet but it looks really promising. Price is reasonable if compared with two set of tyres in my opinion. So, I recommend without any doubt. If you never used all season tyres it is worth to check it at least. Read more Collapse

Most probably I will drive through another winter on Vredestein Quatrac 5. I just have to pay attention and control how I drive my car in upcoming months now. Unfortunately I had no opportunity to try them on heavy snow weather last year even when I was in French mountains so I can not really make any opinion aboout this model if it comes to difficult conditions. I am happy with them especially becouse I do not have to change whole set after one season and I was afraid about that. Nice product - recommended! Read more Collapse
