Hello,

I have vredestein sessanta ultracs.

There are 3 reasons why:

Premium tyres at normal prices (all 4 on the M fitted for 440 pounds).

Overall review very good in wet and dry and good wear rate.

The tread pattern is sexy, it gives me the horn!

Fulda Carat Exelero :)
My search was for : revues in dry and wet road, noise (while running all the time roof down), production "made in Germany" and price 400 EUR/ 4pcs delivered at home!
The real surprise was in the tire center (workshop) when 2 wheels were balanced 0, without any weights and the other two with just symbolic tiny weight each one!
For me is for the first time I met 2 tires balanced 0!
And after 3 years (25000 km) they are in a very good elasticity and low wear........but of course because I'm driving with love!.......;)

You will get a thousand replies on here, it's a personal choice I'm afraid.

It's like detailing a car there are hundreds of products for one specific job!

Try running Pirelli, good for +/- six months, on an ///M I would think, forget it.
I have, for the last couple of years, run only on winter rubber the whole year round. Good for any situation on the road with very flexible side wall's.

conti contact sport here..got 4 part worns with almost full tread at £70 a corner..lovely grip in wet or dry and not to much road noise, plenty of feedback, you know when they are about to "let go" I would say best tyre I have ever used has also reduced the tramlining.

also had the maxxi victras and thought they were a fantastic tyre as well but a tad more tramlining and a bit noisier..just as grippy though if a bit more "rustic"

Running Goodyear Eagle GTs on my rig. There was a good sale when I got them and they have been good tires so far.
