Vredestein Ultrac Vorti Owner Reviews

What owners say summarised from 108 reviews

Most drivers rate the Vredestein Ultrac Vorti very highly, praising its strong dry grip, confident handling/steering feedback, and an overall “premium” feel for the money. Many also report good comfort and reduced road noise versus rival performance tires, with several noting respectable tread life for normal road use. A smaller but recurring set of reviews report weaker wet confidence (especially in standing water) and faster or inconsistent wear, with some also noticing the tire's weight/rolling resistance impacting acceleration or fuel economy.

I have done 40,000 miles on One set of Vortis in the last 2 years on an Audi A5! With spirited driving! I cannot begin to thank Vredestein for making this tire. They still have more than nearly 4 mm available and are still quiet and grippy. Until a super tire is provided to the market these will be my tires of choice. IMHO there is no better value on the market today.

WOW! That's all I have to say really. Will not buy a different make of tire again unless these are ever discontinued, which in my opinion would be unthinkable as these will surely become a favorite soon. Riding on a Audi A4 B5 2.6 V6 1997. Black(LY9B)225/40/18. RS4 alloys. Purchased mine from camskill for Â£87 a corner. Rock on!! Well done Vredestein.

Excellent all round tire, best available for the money and a lot better than some of the other tires that cost 50% more.

I changed from Continental Sport Contact 5's to these after reading the reviews on here. It's probably the best tire move I've made yet.
I paid Â£85.80 per corner for each of these and am amazed how good they are. They are far better than the Contis in all aspects.
The car feels absolutely planted through fast sweepers as well as hairpins, I really cannot fault them at all and would buy again without hessitation.
Another huge point for me is road noise. I always found the Contis quite noisy for my car but these are excellent. To be honest I cannot find anything bad to write about them.

Great tire with stacks of grip. Nice soft wall so gives you more cabin comfort and reduces road noise. These will give you track day grip on normal every day roads. Very happy at Â£99 a corner you can not go wrong. So far ran on these for 8500 miles with approx 25% wear.

these tires are just ridiculously good!
300+hp up front and gripping is fantastic! even in wet, you wouldnt notice the difference!
cornering! like on rails makes for so much confidence bending it around!
imo there is no better tire!

Going from Conti SC3s to these all round its like Night and Day tbh... Have no doubt in my mind i wish i used these around the Nurburgring when i visited a couple of months back... really compliments the Quaife LSD...

I wouldnt hesitate to recommend these tires, having just visited the Evo Triangle in north wales, I have gained far more confidence over the Conti's...

Premium Assymetric tire for a midrange price... independant tire reviews agree

Having changed to these tires from Yokohamas following reading several positive reviews, I couldn't be more pleased. The Yohohamas were DREADFUL in the wet and these Vreds are excellent. Due to the low profile they are very firm but most others at this profile would be the same. Never let me down even when pushed hard. Prefer them to Continentals and Pirellis. Would purchase again.

Due to all reviews and feedback from fellows I changed my bridgestone S001 with the vorti; I was 100% happy with the S001 because of their stiff sidewall mostly. The Vreds looks more or less the same and they are cheaper, so far so good. Maybe not as stiff as Bridgestone. Personally I don't like the Giugiaro logo on sidewall. Anyway good tires

Had the Bridgstone run flats removed and the Veld Vortis fitted and the difference is like night and day. The first things you notice is the ride and the noise or to be more specific the lack of noise.First the ride . Gone is the tooth shaking effect experienced every time you went over a patch in the road or a change in surface, now the car just rides over them , the reduction in tire noise is incredible its now possible have a conversation with the passenger. Tram-lining is a thing of the past you can actually drive the car now. The grip is fantastic and the rears respond instantly when you put your foot down. Overall I am impressed.

No doubt this could be achieved with other tire makes and specs but for me the Vredstein Ultrac Vorti is the way to go.

Tire pressure as the car recommended pressures are based on run flats I stuck with my gut feeling of 34 psi on fronts 225x40x18 and 36 on rears 255x35x18. and the balance seem's fine, will keep an eye on tire wear and adjust if needed.

Would I choose Vorti's ,in a heart beat
