Summer tyres Vredestein Ultrac Satin are a very good choice for drivers looking for the perfect price-performance ratio. The model was designed for high-end cars and SUVs . These types of cars require very good tyres, due to higher power and heavier weight.
Vredestein Ultrac Satin meets these requirements. It is the successor to the well-known Ultrac Cento model , which is still very popular. The new model has improved performance in each area. During the designing and production process, very innovative methods and materials were used. The tyres feature an asymmetric tread and are made of extremely advanced rubber compound. The appearance of the tyre is the work of the Italian studio, Giugiaro.
The model offers excellent grip in varied summer conditions, reduced fuel consumption and driving comfort . The rubber compound contains a special resin, which improves traction on wet roads. The Z-shaped tread grooves increase steering precision and handling.
Compared to the previous model (Ultrac Cento), Vredestein Ultrac Satin provides:
-
3.3 meters shorter braking distance from 80 mph,
-
12% better grip in dry conditions,
-
10% better grip on wet surfaces,
-
increased driving comfort,
-
reduced rolling resistance.
Vredestein is now part of the Apollo Group, and is referred to as an upper middle class brand. The company delivers very good performance, yet an affordable purchase price . The tyres were designed with the demanding European drivers’ needs in mind.
