Vredestein are brilliant tyres and are at a very competitive price. At some point this year Ill need some new ones on the front and am still struggling to decide weather to get the Vredestein or stick with the Goodyear Eagle F1s at I have on atm.

I have a sneaky feeling my wallet at the time will dictate which ones I go for :(
.........i had the Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta on my ED 30 but just chaged all 4 for Conti sport 3. Much better than the Vreds,better ride quality & not as much road noise. :cool:

Well ordered my 18" vreds of fleabay last night, £202 inc delivery which I don't think is too bad at all. I actually heard mixed things re these and the contacts, some people said the contacts were actually more noisy then the vreds and I see someone else on this post said the other way round??

Oh well, will report my findings...
