π‘ Is the Vredestein Wintrac Pro+ 255/55R18 a Good Tire?
The Vredestein Wintrac Pro+ 255/55R18 is a winter tire designed for mid-size SUVs and crossovers. It delivers strong snow and ice traction with reliable wet performance thanks to its directional tread pattern and specialized winter compound. Ride comfort is good with moderate road noise, though tread life is shorter than all-season alternatives due to the softer winter rubber compound. Rated 3.5/5 by TirePath editors, it provides excellent cold-weather safety but requires seasonal changeover and storage during warmer months. Currently priced from $210.22, it is available through major online tire retailers.
