    Vredestein tyres

    or I think thats how you spell it .Got new ones on the rear when we bought it but the Fulda's on the front now look like racin' slicks ! Thinking about getting a matching pair of Vredesteins for the front, any good or are they

    Myself, J and Adam have all had Vreddy's - I still do. I think they are a fantastic tyre. I have Ultracs but the Sportrac 2s are also excellent, in all conditions. Pattern is pretty damn sexy too.

    Hi

    I also had them on the front when I bought the T5, was well impressed with the grip. I have now moved changed to Uniroyal Rainsports as they were cheaper - they are just as good if not better.

    Just my humble opinion.

    My trade contacts have run a little dry for Vredestein tyres. Found some mail order from http://www.mytyres.co.uk. Anyone used these guys before?..I mean I don't want to order some and end up with a pair of remoulds with 'Vredestein' spelt wrong, written in crayon on the side !
