The Vredestein Quatrac tire achieves only a satisfactory rating for safety on dry, wet, and winter roads. On dry surfaces, it shows its weakest performance, offering average steering feedback and lacking precision. The driver needs to make occasional corrections, and the tire could be more stable during dynamic evasive maneuvers. However, its braking distance is slightly above average, earning a good rating.
On wet roads, the Quatrac narrowly misses a good overall rating. It scores well in braking and aquaplaning tests but receives only a satisfactory rating in wet handling due to excessive under- and oversteer, affecting precise control on the handling course.
In winter conditions, the Vredestein also achieves only a satisfactory result. While it secures a good rating in traction tests, it falls short in braking and handling. The test vehicle lacks precision in steering, with grip limits at a satisfactory level. Ice braking performance is slightly below average.
Environmentally, the Hungarian-made Vredestein Quatrac achieves a good result. It scores well in projected mileage and wear. In efficiency, the Quatrac excels with very low fuel consumption and comparatively low weight.

2020-11-26 - Hi, I'm interested the vredestein quatrac tire but when I'm searching for these tires to buy I can only find either 'pro' or '5' written at the end. This review doesn't state which these are? Also I'm after 225/45r18 and 245/40 r18 size, does this tire exist in these sizes?
The 'Quatrac' is a new tire which replaces the Quatrac 5. Vredestein will be releasing new sizes of the Quatrac all the time so hopefully they'll release a tire in your size soon.
2021-11-29 - Hi, looking at the Vredestein Quatrac in 195/65 R15, would these be suitable for a classic car with tubes? I have spoked wire wheels, so need to use tubes, but do less than 2k miles/yr but in all conditions. Also, what speed rating would you recommend? i assume it effects side wall stiffness, my car only weighs 1043kg Kind regards, Mr Collins
Officially, I'd say no as tubeless tires are not meant for tubes due to friction. However, I have heard of people running similar tires with tubes on rally events etc.
2023-10-26 - What is the initial tread depth of the Vredestein Quatrac tires?
Tread depth can vary by size, but for our test of the Quatrac this year, we measured at 7.6mm.
