Vredestein Tires

Since no one answered the question on the Tire forum, I am posting it here again. So....

Has anyone ever heard of the following tires?

Vredestein Tires

Does anyone know anything about them? Specifically the ULTRAC Series. I am looking for a decent tire with more than 10k treadlife in the front! I am going to post the pics of my S-03's after 7800 miles!

I've never heard of that company before... and i checked their site, they don't have any information about treadware ratings....

so, if you are thinking about switching from S-03s to these because of poor treadwear, make sure these are rated higher then the S-03s...

What size tires do you need? There are quite a few options available for 17 & 18 tires....

and Please do post pics of the S-03s

Talked to a dealer here on the east, Euro Tire, they claim they get 25k miles as compared to the 8 with the S-03. They are also rated up to 168 mph. I believe that is a little higher than the S-03, or comparable.
