Vredestein

Vredestein is the European tire brand most GTA drivers have never heard of — and that's honestly a shame. The Dutch company has been building tires for over a century and today sits inside Apollo Tyres Ltd, with 15 current car, SUV, van, and light-truck models on sale in Canada. If you've ever wished a winter tire could handle like a performance tire, Vredestein's whole identity is built around exactly that idea.

The winter lineup: Wintrac Pro+ leads

Winter is where Vredestein makes its case. The flagship is the Wintrac Pro+, a performance winter tire offered in a massive 124 sizes for cars and SUVs — everything from compact sedans to high-powered crossovers. Below it sit the Wintrac Pro (2 sizes, aimed at the most powerful cars), the Wintrac (23 sizes for cars and SUVs), and the Snowtrac 5 (5 sizes, comfort-oriented for smaller cars). All four are dedicated winter tires; none carry a mileage treadwear warranty, which is normal for the winter category — coverage is trial-period based instead.

If you're shopping for winter tires in the GTA, the Wintrac Pro+ deserves a look alongside the usual suspects. It's the kind of tire built for drivers who refuse to slow down just because it's January.

The all-weather answer: the Quatrac family

Not ready to commit to a dedicated winter set? Vredestein's Quatrac line is one of the longest-running all-weather families in the business. The current Canadian range has four: the Quatrac (41 sizes), Quatrac 5 (23 sizes, with a 75,000 km treadwear warranty — rare in all-weather), Quatrac Pro (3 sizes, focused on the UHP segment), and Quatrac Pro+ (100 sizes, the volume player). For a lot of GTA commuters, a Quatrac Pro+ set splits the difference between seasons without the twice-a-year swap.

All-season, all-terrain, and summer

The all-season bench runs five deep: the Hitrac (52 sizes, 115,000 km warranty — the comfort pick for family vehicles), Hypertrac (49 sizes, 80,000 km, wet-performance focused), Pinza AT (71 sizes, the all-terrain option for SUVs and light trucks, 115,000 km on P-metric / 80,000 km on LT sizes), Pinza HT (52 sizes, highway-terrain for light trucks, same warranty split), and the Comtrac Cargo A/S (4 sizes, built for vans and cargo trucks). Summer is covered by the Ultrac (6 sizes) and Ultrac Pro (104 sizes).

Warranty and the current rebate

Here's the straight story on coverage: only five models carry a mileage treadwear warranty — Hitrac (115,000 km), Hypertrac (80,000 km), Pinza AT and Pinza HT (115,000 km P-metric / 80,000 km LT), and Quatrac 5 (75,000 km). Everything else is covered by a 30- or 100-day trial period plus road hazard on most patterns, per Vredestein's 2026 warranty document. Winter tires get no mileage coverage anywhere in the industry, so that's not a Vredestein quirk.

On rebates: Vredestein's Canadian site was showing an up-to-$80 rebate banner on select tires as of September 30, 2026, with no published terms on the banner itself. Check the current tire rebates before you buy — if it's live, we'll make sure you get it.
