Vredestein Tires

[bsprtsgrp]

I have the Winter Tires and you could climb a tree with them

only downside to vredestein is the asymmetrico pattern which cannot be fully rotated. I am opting for the bridgestone dueler hp sport. The cost is around 975 installed and I will give some reviews soon.

True! but I just rotated front to back vs side to side

I guess you don't have the oem 20" staggered setup. Thats the problem with these rims. When they are staggered the fronts are a different size than the rears. That makes it impossible to do front to rear and that won't even solve the innner tire wear problem. You have to dismount and remount the rears so you get a longer life of the tire

read my 1st post (4 identical tires) - I run 19" staggered with my X5 4.4i Sport. Fortunately, given all the interstate driving I do, my wear has been very even. I'm due for a complete new set this summer(~35K) as I'm nearing the wear nubs in the grooves. Uneven wear is something you really have to check often with a staggered setup. The real downside of wanting staggered wheel performance

If anyone wants these tires goto http://www.bonesenterprises.com/, talk to Rhonda, she will take care of you. She gave me a wicked deal on wheels & Vredestein's for my 4.6is..definetly A++. Love the tires (not ONLY for the looks) but for handling as well. I have 10x20 all around with 275 f & 315 r. PICS to follow..

I felt the same way as you, but did some research, and they are presently undergoing a significant marketing push in the USA. I got a set of the Vredesteins for my E70, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

Cheap, great looking, amazing grip. I couldn't be happier.

Do the vredestein tires come in a right and left version? I've only ever seen one side.
