Wins count every measurement the shared tests recorded for both tires; a tick marks the tire ahead on that line. Subjective driver scores count as wins but are never averaged, because each test uses its own scale.

Head to head in 7 tests, 2024 to 2025

Each row is one published test in which both tires ran on the same car, in the same size, on the same day. The line is the whole field, winner on the left.

Point at or tap any spoke for both tires' figures.

In each test the better of the two figures counts as 100% and the other as its share of it, so a 118 ft stop against 112 ft is 95%; each spoke averages the shared tests that recorded it. The scale stops at 92%: a point further in sits on the hub's edge, hollow. 11 measurements recorded in only one shared test are left off; every measurement is in the table further down.

Averages of the figures both tires posted in the same tests. The gap is the average of each test's own gap, so figures from different cars and years are never mixed. Open a discipline for its measurements, and a measurement for every test's figure.

Braking distances and lap times are better when lower; speeds, wear and grip figures when higher. A test's figures are its own: sizes, cars, surfaces and temperatures differ from one to the next, which is why the averages here are only ever of tests the two tires shared. "Scored" rows are subjective driver ratings: each test uses its own scale, so only the wins are counted.

Scores beyond the shared tests

On the Tire Reviews Score, which weighs every test and review we hold, the AllSeasonContact 2 scores 9.5 and the Quatrac Pro+ 8.1 out of 10.

Continental AllSeasonContact 2

  • 667,287 milesdriven by reviewers

Owners rate the Continental AllSeasonContact 2 highly overall (81% average), most often praising its smooth, comfortable ride and low noise levels, alongside very strong wet grip that inspires confidence. Dry grip is also widely viewed as secure and predictable, and around one in five owners report it coping well in snow for an all-season. The main recurring drawback is steering feel: around one in four owners describe softer, less immediate response, and tread life feedback is mixed, with a noticeable minority reporting faster-than-expected wear.

  • Noticeably smoother, more comfortable ride
  • Low cabin noise and a refined drive
  • Excellent wet grip and confidence in the rain
  • Strong dry grip and traction under acceleration
  • Steering feels soft or delayed, with a dead spot for some drivers
  • Tread life reports are inconsistent, with some seeing faster wear
  • Handling can feel less sharp than expected in the dry

Summarised by AI from 61 vetted reviews; the reviews themselves are on the tire page.

I chose XL-rated tires because I tend to drive a bit faster, and they provide better stability with less sidewall flex. I use them only during the winter, and they've been excellent. They are no noisier than winter tires, and in my experience they perform better in about 90% of winter conditions. The only exception is deep snow, where proper winter tires still have an advantage, although these tires handle it quite well too.

  • 98,850 milesdriven by reviewers

Owners are broadly pleased with the Vredestein Quatrac Pro Plus, with 12 of 14 reviews scoring it positively and an average owner rating of 80.9%. The most consistent strengths are strong wet grip and reassuring all-round traction, with many also highlighting confident dry grip and capable performance in snow. A meaningful minority (around one in five) report a softer, less precise steering feel and a tire that needs a longer bedding-in period, and a similar share raise concerns over tread life or durability.

  • Excellent wet grip, even in cold and wet conditions
  • Strong dry grip with confidence for spirited driving
  • Surprisingly capable snow traction
  • Predictable dry handling
  • Softer, less precise steering feel/feedback
  • Noticeable bedding-in period before it feels at its best
  • Reduced margin at the limit or a slight delay finding grip under load

"I purchased these all-season premium tires for my 4WD Subaru Outback, and I am extremely satisfied with them. As soon as they were installed, the car felt remarkably smooth and pleasant to drive.
The tires are wearing perfectly evenly, and I’ve already rotated them once. I used to be hesitant about all-season tires, but this brand completely convinced me that I made the right choice. While tire selection always depends on the specific car, driving style, and usage, these have worked out incredibly well for my Outback. Highly recommended!

Reading the results

Written from the test results and owner reviews above. It is analysis, not a measurement: where it and the tables disagree, the tables are right.

This head-to-head pits Continental's premium AllSeasonContact 2 against Vredestein's value-focused Quatrac Pro Plus across seven shared professional tests spanning hatchback, SUV and camper-van fitments. The data paints a consistent picture: Continental targets balanced, safety-first performance with efficiency; Vredestein leans on comfort and wet grip value at a lower price point.

Across dry, wet, snow and efficiency metrics, the Continental repeatedly finishes near the top, with standout aquaplaning resistance and notably lower rolling resistance. Vredestein counters with quieter operation and flashes of strong wet braking, but shows weaker precision on dry roads and average winter capability compared with the class leaders.

Conclusion

Continental's AllSeasonContact 2 is the more complete tire: safer in the dry and on snow, very competitive in the wet, and consistently superior for aquaplaning resistance and rolling resistance. It converts that breadth into higher overall rankings in every shared test, plus better predicted mileage and lower abrasion in ADAC.

Vredestein's Quatrac Pro Plus offers credible wet performance, high ride comfort and the quieter cabin many commuters value, typically at a lower purchase price. However, its longer dry stops, softer steering precision and average winter metrics make it less confidence-inspiring in mixed or severe weather. If you prioritize all-round safety and efficiency, choose the Continental; if budget and cabin quiet take precedence in a milder climate, the Vredestein remains a sensible, comfortable option.

Where this data comes from

Finishing positions and measurements are transcribed from each published test. A test only counts here when both tires ran in it, so every figure was recorded on the same car, size and day as the one it is compared to.

About the TR Score

The Tire Reviews Score rates each tire out of 10 from every independent test result and vetted owner review we hold, so two tires can be compared even before a test has run them together.

Who does the testing

Every test published as a Tire Reviews test is run by Jonathan Benson, who has been testing tires independently since 2007.
