Swapped the 21’s and summer tires off my summit reserve for 18” XDs and Kumho Venture with a 3 peak mountain snowflake rating. Had 10” of snow and didn’t bat an eye in snow mode.
Kumho - superior value and great handling.
Great tires in all conditions with amazing grip. I've had them since 2023.
I have a 2025 RS6 and for winter I am running 21" aftermarket wheels with Vredestein Wintrac Pro+ tires. Been really happy so far and here in Minnesota we've had a whopping of snow this year.
Kumho ecsta sport S. Huge improvement
It’s been about 5,000 miles and I wanted to write a quick review of the Quatrac Pro tired because I couldn’t really find anything. So these were advertised as "all weather" at Les Schwab… not "all season". I will say these are fantastic. I live in PNW and these had done exceptionally well in the rain and puddles. The first 1,000 miles or so was a trip to Montana. It was extremely cold and icy, but the tires still did amazing for non winter tires. That being said, the range did take a hit. Also I am not one to notice the road noise, I don’t really pay attention to that, but these seem quieter than the stock tires. Anyway 10/10 would buy again.
On my last car Michelin Pilot Sport 4S lasted ~20k but that's kind of expected due to how soft they are. On my current I have Kumho Ecsta Sport and they have lasted about the same but instead of wear being the issue they're cracking/tearing.
On my current car I drove kumho tires in the summer and they are pretty decent. Not the best I had but still pretty good.
They're crap. Had them new in '21 and was ready to ditch them first winter. We run Vredestein Quatrac Pro+ all seasons and they are phenomenal.
This looks like a Vredestein Wintrac Pro. I’ve had two sets of them and both times I’ve developed a side bubble on one of the tires at around the second time I put them on for winter. In any case, from my experience it seems like they have a weak side wall construction and won’t be buying them again.
