Tires FEDERAL or Vredestein

We put all-weather Vredestein tires on my wife’s car, and she was pleased with how they handled last winter.

They said that their customers have really good experiences with the Vredestein Quatrac Pros. I’ve been running them a year. No complaints.

I have used the 595-RSR tires for 8 years now, several sets. yes they are noisy, get worse with miles but I noticed the newest ones were even louder! These tires are the ultimate in grip/handling, one of the few that can put FWD power to the ground. Make my cars handle like its on rails and they don't squeal when pushing to the limit around corners. They are so sticky they pick up all the rocks/debris and throw it up in your wheel wells/rockers. I think they are easily one the best handling tire out there. Very stiff sidewalls, but extremely loud (like louder than winter tires). If you can handle the sound and dont expect a lot of miles out of them, go for it.

Loving my Vredestein Hitracs. Feel great, super quiet and cushy, but still really grippy and confidence-inducing in the rain or in corners.

Vredenstein. Have Quatrac Pros on my V60 PE and they’re better than Michelin all seasons I’ve used.

I have Vredestein QUATRAC PRO XL 98Y on my V60, really like them so far

I've gone through at least 5 sets of 651's over the past 4-5 years of daily driving and autox (07 scion tC & now a 17 BRZ). as a budget tire, really can't complain for learning without breaking the bank.

I really like the federal command tires, they were an amazing price (around 60$ for 2). They also have a very pronounced grind protection lip on the side wall. On a super hot supper day they have amazing grip and wonderful feedback.

My only complaint is because they are a slick tire, you get amazing rolling, but the second there is a dusting of sand on a hard surface you can slip out pretty easy.

Full tread they were good in the rain but definitely left something to be desired once they got below half tread.

Routine maintenance at VW dealer alerted me to tire cracks. Cracks would be an understatement. The tires had 14,000 miles on them. They are meant to be under warrantee. The local tire store and I phoned each Vredestein and left messages. I wrote the company three times. No response.
