Tires Goodyear or Vredestein

Bought a set of Vredestein Wintrac Pro for my RS3. Reviews seemed good from what I found on UK sites.

You can still buy "PNEUMANT" Tires in Germany and Austria.

Went with Goodyear WinterCommands in 215/65/17 on VW steel rims. Worked them into the deal when we purchased the Tig. Definitely didnt want to run 19s in the winter.

When I bought my car it had a mix of winter tires and odd budget tires all round. I got all 4 replaced for some decent Goodyear eagle F1's with balancing and tracking and had no regrets.

Have them on my TJ in 32.5” been very happy with them especially in snow.

I have 17s and I am on my second set. I got over 60k rotating 5 on the first set. Great grip in wet weather and excellent in snow too. Not too loud either.

Have had 3 sets, best at tire around. Much better than the KO2s I’ve had. 10/10 recommend

I have the Wrangler duratracs on 17"s and love them. They are great in all types of weather and performed really well off roading.

Have about ~25k miles on them and they seem to be at the halfway point in their lifespan.

I have these on my JKU and they are OK. They do well on snow, but on wet roads they can break free pretty easily .

My experience with Goodyear is as an SA with BMW and VW. For a "high-quality" tire, they seemed to wear out fast and give unwanted vibrations sooner.
