I bought Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta in size 235/45/18 a month ago. I did ca. 1500 miles so far, but my first impressions are quite good First of all, they are more comfortable than the previous SportContact 2 I had. At first I thought that this was an illusion (because I have NEW tyres), but after a long drive I can confirm it was not. Also, I previously had higher profile tyres. The driving comfort is good. Cornering grip is comparable to the more expensive tyres such as Continental. On wet they are incomparably better. They are just a little bit louder than on dry, where they are almost inaudible. I wonder what will be their life span, because I am not able to rate it at the moment. Previous tyres lasted only three seasons with low mileage, so I hope that Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta will not be worse. Overall, I can recommend them.

Hello. Tires revelation. Those who complain about the cracking certainly did not apply to the table of difference of vredestein. Remember that a tire needs a lot more pressure on average wheel 2.8 bar. And people are not informed about load it to 2.2 bar from what I read on the forums.

Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta is a very good tyre. I did ca. 7500 miles and I didn't notice any signs of wear. I didn't have any problems with it - I'm very pleased. The visual look is very unique. At higher speeds, above 90 MPH on wet it just cuts through water and leaves a big cloud of water droplets behind the car, resulting in a great viusal effect. Personally I think Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta is one of the best tyres in such range, and I guess I will stick with it for some time now.

Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta are not the best tyres that I used, but they are the most beautiful. No noise at all. Brilliant comfort. The most comfortable tyres that I ever had. They behave good in dry conditions. Excellent braking. On wet they slide a bit but not as much to be afraid of them. Braking is a bit worse but they behave very good at aquaplaning. Maybe Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta is not a super sport tyre but in general it's worth buying.

As a Vredestein should be, Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta are high class tyres. I definitely recommend them. Very good traction properties and excellent design. As for me, there's no better tyre than Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta at the moment in such a price range.
