Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta (for the 370)

[ioneabee]

Once I get the damn locking nuts off - am thinking of these - anyone tried them ?

[glrnet]

Got them on the 350 and really pleased with them but I thought they had been discontinued

PM Ebized, he has them on the 370 and rates them highly

Not sure of prices or if you are a member, but Costco have there 6 monthly 20% off 4 tyres starting tomorrow. Michelin PSS might be worth a go.

Good call

For the price (around £760 for a set in Sept 2011), I have found them excellent and very predictable with the TC off, noting the other thread currently running

 

Like glrnet, I had understood they were being discontinued. Seeing a set MPSS for the 370 can be had for under a grand now that is likely to be my next choice.

ah, yes - so add 555 miles round trip and 10.5 hours driving time (in a straight dash up the M4, round london and back again) at say £150 for fuel + time

 

I'll also need a new set of tyres by the time I get back home again

I've had 2 sets on my 350, great tyre all round IMHO. Down side is I've never manged more than 9k out of a set, there's always going to be trade off...

[Will370z]

Timely post this, i'm after new tyres for rosie. Going for the pilot super sports

[ioneabee]

Having hunted around a little and giving the local garages the choice between PSS and the Vreds - the vreds being very difficult to get hold of, but some are managing it - spoke a 2nd time to one garage, who gave a great price on the vreds, just to confirm it - i then had a phone call the next day saying they were in and ready for me (don't recall actually saying "yup - get them ordered" ???)

However, at just over £800 for the 4 I think thats pretty good - so will be getting them fitted in about a fortnight or so - told them hang on as I felt I still had about a thousand miles left in the Bridgestones (just)

Got a full set of these on mine & very impressed, also had them on previous 3.0 gtv, your lucky still available, as mentioned above thou, not that long lasting

[ioneabee]

How does that song go..........."slip sliding away............"

 

4 new boots now fitted

 

as others have said amazed at the difference - tyre noise virtually gone and no tramlining either

[sipar69]

I'm due new tyres in a few months - reckon I'll go for the PSSs as well.

[ioneabee]

these are vredsteins Sipar

cost = £780 for the 4

PSS were coming in at over £900

[Will370z]

So the zeds all sorted now then andy, just got to sort the driver skills out now lol

[ioneabee]

 

not gonna happen anytime soon

[philb1965]

£780 is a good price, but £900ish for the PSS is good as well! Are these fitted prices and where from? Ta.

[ioneabee]

MPSS price I had was actually £920 - but there was an offer on from Michelin knocking £40 off, bringing actual down to £880

Are the Ultrac Vortis the successor to the Sessenatas? They seem to get good reviews.
