Tires Nexen or Vredestein

The vredestein hypertrac all season was on sale and ratings was on par with michelin and continental. After testing them out i bought another set for the future. 2 sets of 4 hypertrac tires for $1050. Thinking about stocking up and buying a 3rd set.

Drove our car with Nexens on and it's a surprisingly quiet tire vs the Bridgestones it had on previously.

They are quiet and smooth riding. I think they are a bit softer than your standard all season, so in Florida they will wear fast.

I recently put the Vredstein Quatrac pro+ tires on my Golf R and finally got to test them in snow this past weekend and they too were excellent in the snow. The roads were covered in snow and ice and it dumped over the weekend, great tire and they had the right size for my golf unlike the cross climates. These tires seem to be a bit sportier in dry handling as well, with a Y speed rating, wet traction has also been awesome. I don’t have a ton of mile on the tires but based on my experience so far, including in the weather, I’d recommend them.

I think in my case where my Toyota Sprinter is a 5MT 4WD vehicle (with a center locking diff i might add ????), the Vredesteins are my favorite. In the other 3 seasons of the year where there is no snow, they are excellent in the wet, they are relatively quiet and i enjoy how they perform with more "spirited" driving.

Update: got the Nexens and so far notice 0 road noise on highway or in town, both absolutely quiet.

The Nexens without a second thought... Those N'Fera SU1 tires are excellent tires and Nexen has arguably the best warranty in the tire industry.

I ran two sets of nexen su1 across 80kkm on a 10 yo + Subaru legacy 3.0r a few years ago.

They were fine. Good grip in the wet. Only grumble I had was they were a bit noisy

I've got about 60k km on my OEM Nexen tires. They are definitely on the way out, they slip on wet roads now when accelerating.

the stock OE tires are absolute garbage but they'll work just fine if you live in warmer climate area. I put mine through a single winter in buffalo ny area. it was a bad idea but if you're a good driver, you can manage the LACK of ANY traction.
