Thanks for the reply Torque. Really helps. How's the grip when compared to GY Assurance triple max? And has there been any difference in handling at high speeds?

Trying to decide between the ultra vortis 1 and the continentals. Which one do you suggest? 225/45/17.

Got new shoes for my Rapid today. For 185/60/R15 profile, Vredestein seemed the only premium offering.
Feels good to have a V rated tyre which matches the Max odo speed of the vehicle

Side profile looks good, at least better than continental CC6.

Do share the feedback after driving with them.

I changed the 4 tyres of my Honda WRV Diesel, from the original Michelin Primacy 195x60x16 to Vredestein Ultrac ITL (same size), on 19 Sep, at Global Tyres Kochi. I had checked with 3 dealers before that.
The Michelin tyres lasted till 53000 kms, by which time some cracks on the side wall and tread wear limit had happened. New Michelin tyres available were of Nov 2020 make only. The other alternatives I considered were Continental UC 6 and Yokohama Blue earth. Blue Earth was available only as 205x60x16. I did not want to change the size and on price comparison and dealer opinion, I went for the Vredestein, which I got for Rs 7000 each.

I have run around 2600 kms on the new Vredestein tyres and I can say the rides on the good roads have been as good as the Michelin and on the bad roads have been smoother. I have a doubt if mileage is slightly lower but can confirm only after I take a Cochin Banaglore trip next month. Grip has been good on rainy days too,

Hello Friends

The Michelin PSP4 tyres on my Škoda Octavia 1.8 TSI are showing age by now in the 2.5 yrs of use.

They have done almost 40k kms by now and still have some life left. However I usually change the entire set irrespective of the wear and tear approximately around 35-40k kms.

This time I am looking for the Vredestein Vorti tyres as a replacement in stock size 205 55 R16.
So expecting some info/ advice on pricing, availability on these tyres from fellow members.

Thanks in advance
