The Vredestein Hypertrac All Season 235/40R18 is an ultra high performance all-season tire, designed for sports car, coupe, and powerful sedan drivers who prioritize high-speed capability and predictable handling in everyday driving. Its asymmetric tread design and year-round compound focus on balancing dry performance with wet traction and light snow capability.
The tire features wider outboard tread elements for enhanced steering response and dry handling, while a high void pattern with optimized groove design helps evacuate water from the contact patch. The specially-tuned polymer blend compound works alongside zigzag sipes and biting edges to maintain traction in wet conditions and light snow. Vredestein updated the compound starting in 2021 to further improve wet and snow performance. Driver feedback points to exceptional wet and dry handling with strong comfort levels, making it well-suited for performance-oriented daily driving.
Compared to summer-only performance tires, it adds year-round usability including light snow capability while maintaining high-speed handling characteristics. Overall, it's a solid choice for performance vehicles used primarily for spirited daily driving in varying weather conditions.
