Vredestein Wintrac Pro

Wintrac Pro is a winter option from a dutch manufacturer that is getting a bit outdated, but on wet and dry roads it still holds up with the premium segment. It has some minor weaknesses on snow, but for a lower than premium price it could be a good deal.

Falken Eurowinter HS02 Pro

EuroWinter HS02 is very good and quite sporty on dry and wet, but lacks some performance on the snow which is the reason for the not so good test results. Weaknesses in aquaplaning and rolling resistance doesn't help either.

    Short braking distance on dry roads
    • aquaplaning-longitudinal
      Below average aquaplaning resistance
    • rolling-resistance
      High rolling resistance/high fuel consumption
    • snow-traction
      Worse traction on snow
    • snow-braking
      Longer braking distance on snow
    • snow-circle-cornering
      Inferior handling on snow
