Greater stability and improved handling on dry surfaces

The Vredestein Quatrac 5 is characterised by the sleek, asymmetrical design of the tread. The summer side, with reduced air ratio, ensures excellent handling and great steering precision on dry and wet road surfaces, while the winter side, with advanced sipe technology, guarantees good grip on cold or snowy surfaces.
3D Grip Claws arranged between the sipes in the middle of the tyre ensure perfect grip in bends and make it possible to accelerate quickly, even on snowy and icy roads. The innovative Full Silica tread compound mix ensures an even wear pattern and a long life span.
Thanks to its low rolling resistance, short braking distance on wet surfaces and low rolling noise, the Vredestein Quatrac 5 also scores well on all three aspects of the EU tyre label.

Manufacturer information
EU Tyre Label
The Tyre Labelling Regulation determines the information that must be provided with regard to tyres' fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise. Information is also provided on the product's performance in wintery driving conditions.
Regulation EU 1222/2009, which has been in force since 01/11/2012, has been revised and will be replaced from 1 May 2021 by Regulation EU 2020/740, from which point new standards will apply. The assessment categories for fuel efficiency, wet grip and external noise have been changed and the layout of the EU label has been changed accordingly. The manufacturers' product data sheets, stored in the EU database, can be downloaded via a QR code integrated into the label. It also includes information on snow grip and ice grip for tyres that meet these criteria.
The following tyres are exempt from the regulation:
- Tyres designed to be fitted only to vehicles registered for the first time before 1 October 1990
- Remoulded tyres (until Regulation EU 2020/740 has been widened accordingly)
- Professional off-road tyres
- Racing tyres
- Tyres with additional devices to improve traction, e.g. studded tyres
- Temporary-use spare tyres (T-type tyres)
- Tyres with a speed rating below 80 km/h
- Tyres with a nominal rim diameter of 254 mm or less and 635 mm or more
