Vredestein Ultrac Satin
The Vredestein Ultrac Satin is a summer tyre featuring a brand-new construction and compound. The focus during development was on safety and comfort. Superior handling and short braking distances are achieved through the use of a unique, traction-enhancing resin in the tread and Z-shaped sipes in the profile. The asymmetric profile and optimized footprint ensure excellent control when driving and a reliable steering response. Five highly energy-efficient compound improvements in the tread, tread base, sidewall, carcass and rim strip, as well as the optimised tyre geometry, reduce energy loss by 16%, providing a low rolling resistance (and therefore lower fuel consumption) without compromising the grip on a wet road.

THE ULTRAC SATIN IS A VERY GOOD MEDIUM CLASS TYRE WITH GOOD ALL ROUND GRIP, MAYBE A BIT SPONGY COMPARED TO THE CONTINENTALS I AM USED TO BUT ABSORBS THE UNEVEN ROADS OF TODAY BETTER THAN SOME OF THE MORE EXPENSIVE BRANDS AND A LOT MORE FORGIVING IF LIKE ME YOU ARE NO LONGER IN THE HAMILTON CLASS.

Much better than pirellis I bought the car with they are sharp in the wet great in the dry don't seem to be scrubbing off too quickly a real gem of a tyre saving money on premium tyres of which I don't think offer much more

These tyres do not instill the same confidence as the Bridgestones replaced. Slightly better comfort wise, but definitely generate more lateral shift and distortion than the old tyres on dry and wet roads. Too early to definitively comment on wear.
