Good all season tyre. Coped well with recent snow. I made it to work, whilst my wife, driving Vauxhall Mokka with summer tyres, didn't.

Vredestein Quatrac 5 is much quieter than its predecessor, this is an excellent all-season tyre on dry and wet surfaces.

I hope to get another winter out of them if I'm careful in the next few months. They didn't see too much heavy snow last winter (skiing in France) so can't be too definitive on that. ~They did get worn over the summer (rather hot at times) and seemed to cope well, although wear was probably a little higher than if Id changed to summer tyres. Oversteer could be a problem for some, but possibly it also depends on the car. My advice would be to get two on the front and if not happy just switch them to the back.

For normal use, the tyre is more than good. Quiet and comfortable. I was thinking of using it even on the bigger car

Fuel consumption appears to be no different to the previous Michelin Primacy tyres though, road noise is very slightly higher. It's too early to say about longevity, but so far wear looks acceptable for the mileage. Good grip on forestry roads, but as we have had such a mild winter, there has been no opportunity to test performance on snow or ice.

Very good tyre. The only minus is the raised volume.

They have a good grip on all the surfaces even if they will never be as specific tires for the season, but they are a good compromise for those who do not want to have two sets of tires, are very quiet and do not increase the fuel consumption, for duration for now I cannot yet evaluate them
