In this comparison, we are looking at two highly-rated summer tyres, the Vredestein ULTRAC and the Bridgestone Turanza 6. Both tyres have been put through numerous tests, which helps in understanding their strengths and weaknesses.


The Vredestein ULTRAC, rated at 26%, is a summer tyre manufactured in Hungary. It was the first equipment tyre for the BMW 2-series Active Tourer. The Vredestein ULTRAC performed excellently in tests, achieving second and third positions in the ACE and Automotorsport tests respectively. Testers noted its very good adhesion and easy control in wet conditions and good handling characteristics on dry asphalt. The tyre was however, criticised for being slightly unstable when quickly changing lanes.


In comparison, the Bridgestone Turanza 6 rated at 83%, performed even better in tests. It held the sixth position in the ACE test and fourth in the Automotorsport test. Best features for this tyre were dry handling and rolling resistance. Testers appreciated its good aquaplaning prevention and decent wet braking features, making it a good choice for dry road conditions. However, it was criticised for restrictions in traction and curve grip on wet roads and was said to be slightly bumpy over cross joints.


When put head-to-head, the Turanza 6 from Bridgestone generally outperformed the ULTRAC model from Vredestein in test results. However, both tyres displayed unique strengths, with the Vredestein ULTRAC showing remarkable handling on dry asphalt, and the Bridgestone Turanza 6 showcasing excellent dry handling and rolling resistance.


To summarise, while the Vredestein ULTRAC provides excellent performance on wet and dry roads, it has been surpassed in performance by the Bridgestone Turanza 6, which demonstrates better overall handling, especially on dry road conditions.


Remember, when choosing tyres, it is essential to consider your personal driving conditions and preferences. Whether it's the Vredestein ULTRAC or the Bridgestone Turanza 6, both offer great features and performance for their respective markets.


To decide which one is best for you, consider your vehicle, typical driving conditions and personal driving style. Always use complete test data to compare tyres and choose the one that best fits your needs.
