Questions and Answers for the Vredestein Wintrac xtreme S

2016-10-30 - Can Vredestein Wintrac Extreme S tyres be used in Summer. I drive to Portugal every Summer, the distance from home is approximately 1000 miles one way with suitcases etc. Thanks for your advice.

All winter tyres can be used in summer, however you may notice increased wear, and you will have a dry braking penalty of around 20% when compared to a summer tyre. We always recommend summer tyres for the summer months.

Given 76% (breakdown) while driving a BMW E90 325i (225/45 R17) on mostly country roads for 10,000 spirited miles
A good all round winter tyre. Not as good as my Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta in the dry or wet when it's warmer, but the Wintrac extreme S comes into its own when it get near freezing!!

Given 50% (breakdown) while driving a Mitsubishi Outlander (215/70 R16 H) on a combination of roads for 300 average miles
Initial impressions were good, unfortunately one of the tyres was defective, and made the car unsafe to use. A big chunk or rubber came off it. I have sent it back to the company I bought them from, and now waiting for decision. Unacceptable for this to happen on a brand new tyre, from a reputable company. That is why I didn't buy Chinese tyres..but maybe that was a mistake.

Chevrolet camaro (275/40 R20) on a combination of roads for 2,000 spirited miles
I drive my car in 30cm snow and icy/wet conditions. All what I can say it is a perfect tyre. My car is a 400HP RWD but still it drives like in summer.
