Question Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta?

Hi,

Anyone running these? Am considering a couple in 255 35 20. Ran their predecessor on a heavily modified Saab 9000, and they were great.

Can't get hold of PS2s anymore, and the Super Sports are a little too expensive

Ta,

I had these in the same size on a 10" wide rim on my last A8 and have nothing negative to say about them. Excellent in wet and a hell of a lot more quiet then all the cheap brands.

Absolutely agree with above - Vredestein are superb, not running them on my S8 yet as I don't need new tyres, but am running them on my X5 and also use their winter variant, Vredestein Wintrac XL and Vredestein Snowtrac, on the X and our other family car. Fabulous in ice and snow. The Sessantas look great and the drive is superb on the X5, so much better than the OEM Michelin Diamaris, and priced a lot better too!!.
