255/40 R19 Tyres

This tire is fantastic in the snow. It is acceptable in the cold dry. Does well in the cold wet. And is not great in any warm conditions. Fantastic snow tire. But once winter is over, it’s time to take them off.

Grip and handling have been satisfactory. Tread life is very disappointing. With 2 1/2 years and less than 23,000 miles the tread wear indicators on the front tires hit 3/32nd and the rear 5/32nd. The tires were only driven 22,421 miles over 2 1/2 years. I would not consider purchasing this brand again.

These are the best summer tires I’ve ever had. The grip in both dry and wet conditions is exceptional and they give a great road feedback, whilst not being overly sensitive to smaller steering inputs that could unsettle the car whilst going at higher speeds. Lastly, I’ll add that the comfort and road noise is very good for this type of tire.

These Continentals replaced some truly dangerous Chinese Goodride tyres fitted by a previous owner (which wandered so badly at speed and on the wet I thought I had serious suspension problems) and they were a revelation. Just so comfortable and accurate, their only flaws so far seem to be slightly higher wear than I was expecting, and thin sidewalks like much of the competition that make them susceptible to pothole damage like most brands. I would rate the Michelin CrossClimate 2 higher for performance, but those are much stiffer and less comfortable.

Once again Vredestein proves to be the best performing and longest lasting tire for me, and they're 30% cheaper than Michelin.
Dry grip is insane, very controllable slip on launches despite my 390hp RWD Mustang.
Cornering is great, it's softer compared to summer tires of course but predictable and smooth.
They're a bit noisy, I can hear the tires "dragging" but that means it's gripping hard.
Wet and snow behave surprisingly good, I've went offroad on a hill covered in a couple inches of snow, gravel and mud without ever getting stuck and barely slipping despite the Mustang.
Oversteer and understeer occurs on ice, take extra precautions and drive slow when asphalt is glossy/glittery, it applies to every tire but these ones lose control easier from lateral forces when slippery.
I've mounted these tires on a Dacia Duster 4x4, Audi A3 and now the Mustang, they all behave like this. Compared to Michelin or Continental which cost over 200€ these Vredestein perform the same or better for around 150€ unbelievable. I'm curious how long they'll last on the Mustang but on previous cars they endured lots more than expected. I have Vredestein (best performance and value) as first choice with Bridgestone (less available in my size hard to find) performance wise. Michelin and Continental 2nd (performance on par with Vredestein and a notch below Bridgestone, always available but the pricing is unjustifiable). I won't buy Pirelli anymore, they're super comfortable and good performing but they get shredded, bald and trashed within 15-20tkm,
