Vredestein Ultrac Vorti
255/35/18 rear 38psi
225/40/18 front 34psi
£550.00 fully fitted.
Really very happy with them. I put the psi after the tyre sizes because the tyre fitters filled them too much and people on here who run Ultrac Sessantas tend to go for lower pressures which didn't work with this tyre. Also there is no information on the Vredestein website as to which pressure to run the tyres at.
Very progressive and amazing in the wet. If I get reasonable mileage from them I'll definitely be getting them again!

Re: The Big Tyres Thread
Of anyone still running on RFTs, do you have a preference?
I'm looking at the stock Potenza RE050s and Conti Sport 5s. Been quoted £770 fitted for the Potenzas.
I'm on 225/40/18 and 255/35/18.
