My Ride: 2006 BMW 525i Jet Black. Pics will be posted soon!!
i was thinking about picking up these set of tires. I've been asking around but no one seems to have heard of them. Do you (experts) have any reviews or input. I tried to search the forum as well and no luck.

I'm no expert but i've heard a little about these tires.. They're good tires for the price but they wear out kinda quick....

I have the plain Utracs (not Sessanta) I've done 25K km so far on them and I have plenty of tread left to do another 25K, no problems at all, no fast wear, I'd say they lasting like no other tires I've had in the past. Just a bit noicy at low speeds, (below 70km/h) They worth every cent. Great grip, very good dry and wet performance

I'm getting these tires put on my new wheels, can't wait! The design on the tire look dope, looks like they'll push the water to the side.

These tires are great...very sticky, but leggomysakyo is right...they will wear out very quickly.

HEy Kevlar301,
again - great choice!!
check out this pic and see how perfectly straight the tire wall is! i love it...
I have had dunlops, contis and goodyears and compared to these, I am happy with what the vredesteins have to offer...
btw. guys who own the vredesteins - the tires are not unidirectional, or? when I mounted them, i could not believe that the wheel grooves were reversed (ie from back to front, rather than front to back). Is that so?
