When comparing two tyres, the Viking Fourtech and the Vredestein Quatrac Pro, a number of factors come into play. By looking at the data of previous tests, we can gain insight into the strengths and weaknesses of both tyres and see how they stack up against each other in different conditions.
The Viking Fourtech, produced by Viking, is an allround tyre that has not been replaced by a newer model as of yet. Our tests provide this model with a 32% rating. In the Autobild test where 31 tyres were tested overall, it took the 25th position. Its best features are noted to be Aquaplaning - cross and Rolling resistance, which help maintain good grip and control in wet conditions, and offer a resistance to rolling that can contribute to fuel efficiency.
On the other hand, we have the Vredestein Quatrac Pro, made by Vredestein, which is also an allround tyre. According to our ratings, this model scored a considerably higher at 61%. In the Autobild test, it fared incredibly well by securing the 3rd position out of 31 tested tyres. The Quatrac Pro shines particularly in the sphere of exterior noise production and comfort, making it a quiet and comfortable ride. Additionally, this tyre performs exceptionally well in wet conditions, observed in excellent wet braking, wet circle cornering, and wet handling. This tyre also displayed good snow traction, further establishing its versatility.
Comparing both tyres, it is apparent that the Vredestein Quatrac Pro seems to be the better choice overall. With its superior test results in multiple categories and a better overall rating, this tyre comes out ahead. Although the Viking Fourtech has its own strengths such as Aquaplaning - cross and Rolling resistance, it falls behind the Quatrac Pro's range of top-rated features.
Overall, the Vredestein Quatrac Pro offers more benefits to the driver, including lower exterior noise, better comfort, superior wet conditions handling, and great snow traction. However, the Viking Fourtech could still be a good choice for those specifically seeking a tyre that offers great aquaplaning resistance and rolling efficiency.
