Was originally going for Pilot Alpin 5 SUV, but there were some delays when ordering so got these instead in 275/45/21 and 315/40/21 on a 2850kg car. There has been ice, snow, slush, dry and wet weather since I put these on and I must say I am impressed over how these perform. For a heavy SUV these tyres feel very well, cant really compare it to anything else as this is the first winter with this car, but we have a EV SUV that weighs 2650kg with Nokian R3 and I feel the Vredesteins suit a heavier car better the Nokians. Braking and grip on snow felt pretty much the same, although I had an impression of more control with the Vredesteins when braking and trying to provoke sliding. They aren’t remarkable on ice, but rarely non studded tyres are. Consumption is a bit higher than the sportcontact 6 summer tires and road noise is pretty much the same.
Will probably try the Pilot Alpin 5 due to lower rolling resistance next time.
