Product description & features

Quatrac 5 by Vredestein is the asymmetrical premium all season tyre with dry and snowy sections. The dry-road cornering outer section has larger and firmer blocks. The inner wet-road section has more open channels with denser fine slits for water and snow removal. Vredestein’s 3D Sipe Technology is responsible for keeping the blocks shape on wet and snowy road surface, while the Full Silica Compound is created for better flexibility at low temperatures.

The Quatrac 5 is the successor of the Quatrac 3 and has the 3PMSF marking on its sidewall. These tyres are proven to comply with the snow traction requirements as they have the appropriate marking. In addition, there was another variant of Quatrac 5 – Quatrac 5 SUV with a reinforced casing to deal with the added weight of an SUV. The tyres can be purchased from Tyres.co.uk.

Highlights

  • Asymmetrical all-season tread
  • Dry and snow traction are separated
  • Open channels move water and snow away
  • Reinforced SUV version available

Compared to some other tyres, the recent heavy snow was handled much better.

The tyres perform well in all seasons. Even though the car is mostly used in the summer, I've experienced unexpected rain showers.

As expected, almost as good as winter tyres when driving in snow and great in damp driving conditions.

Tyre review for Vredestein Quatrac 5 165/70R14 81T
My expectations for these aren't too high. They do feel a bit soft from time to time, and the grip isn't what I expected. I'm looking forward to testing these out in the winter months.

Tyre review for Vredestein Quatrac 5 165/70R14 81T
These tyres are pretty good. I didn't expect these to grip as well as the summer Eagle F1s I used to have, and they don't. The new tyres certainly perform better in colder weather and managed the recent snow well.

Tyre review for Vredestein Quatrac 5 165/70R14 81T
During the summer, I used to work with Michelin, while I worked with Avon during the winter. The new tyres have dealt with the various conditions (Nov-Feb), from freezing roads to slippery wet ones. I'm hoping for the same performance with the tyre in hot conditions. Also, not having to change to summer tyres, I save money, time, and storage space!

In bad winters and hot summers these tyres were tested. They performed particularly well in the rain.

Very effective. They excelled in winters of the German snow and maintained their grip during the spring as well.

Function amazing regardless of the weather, however, it's important to keep the correct PSI/Bar for optimal performance.

We have fitted 'all seasons' tyres on all of our cars except one. This one is rear-wheel drive and I prefer full winter tyres on it during the cold months.

Tyre review for Vredestein Quatrac 5 165/70R14 81T
These tyres are excellent. I was able to drive up some extremely steep untreated roads, both when there was about 3 inches of fresh snow and then again several days later when the snow was compacted ice, and I did so without any issues. I've also been able to drive on some pretty crazy roads with these. I value how well these tyres perform and how quiet they are. They're so much better than the Continentals I had before.

I am very happy with these. I received an incorrect set at first but they ended up being amazing. They've lasted me a long time even with a few accidental pothole hits.
