For those of us that have Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta
 
Man.....

I have stood by these tires from day one. I had these mounted and balanced on the rep 215's last October. A great tire!! Handles well in dry of course, but also both in the rain and believe it or not...in the snow... so I give these a 110% Thumbs up! :thumbup:

Here is my only downfall and i'd like to hear from others here that have these tires.... I kinda knew this going in...

6 months later I would say I have about 2 to 3 k left on the rears and 5 k on the fronts.. I thought that would be the other way around ..but regardless I flew through these.....I'll need new tires this summer for sure.... any input here on your wear on the Sessantas??

Also - There are just too many threads on tires, but for goodness sake..someone recomend me a tire that I could get some miles out of!! :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

Bridgestone dueler h/p sportin twenties. 975 for the set of four. when you get them have an alignment done to correct any over toe.

30k on my stag toyo proxy s/t's. Just ordered the toyo II's, hopefully they will be quieter.

KC - you should be in luck..they were designed specifically with that in mind.....I may look into those...

Not sure on the miles on mine ~15K...mine still look 75%... For the price..... if you like them.. get a new set.

I am very happy with the performance and wear on mine. I know they have a lower tread wear rating than OEM, but ANY good tire will wear quicker.

RR, sup bro,

Are you looking for performance 20s or all-season 20s? What were the Sessantas sold as?

The Sessantas are definitely Performance 20's....

See the funky part Stan is that the 315 wore way quicker than the front 275's.... I just had an alignment done also.....they are wearing rather even..just wearing waaay to quick!

The fronts are where they should be at about 65% 70%........the rears are 35% 40%.................I did notice that the 315's are made in a different factory and country...

I am now more on a scientific quest as to why the 315's wore that much quicker.. any input??

Hows life Bro?? i told you that I was engaged and getting married this Aug...Nicole is coming to the meet...make sure Lana is coming...
