The two tyres under comparison are Linglong Grip Master 4S, manufactured by Linglong, and Vredestein Quatrac, by Vredestein. These allround tyres are aimed at delivering a balanced performance on both dry and wet roads, with additional attention to comfort and value.
The Linglong Grip Master 4S, however, doesn't have a favourable rating in our tests, scoring 0% from our findings. For a more reliable tyre option, you may prefer Vredestein Quatrac, which has an excellent rating of 88% on our tests. This superior percentage stems from its strengths including remarkable exterior noise control, wet handling capabilities, and wet circle cornering. Note that, though this tyre has been manufactured in Hungary (HU), it still represents a sound choice for optimal performance.
In AutoBild's test, among a total of 37 tyres, the Linglong Grip Master 4S takes the 14th position. Its best features labelled are comfort and price-to-value ratio. This tyre offers safe dry handling performance and good comfort. However, it fails to perform well on snowy and wet roads, offering mediocre aquaplaning reserves. The Vredestein Quatrac surpasses it as it lands the 5th spot in the test. This tyre is notable for its exterior noise and wet handling characteristics. It's an all-rounder with high-end efficiency, good aquaplaning reserves, short braking distances, and sporty safe handling."
Additionally, in the Autobild 2024 test, the Linglong Grip Master 4S takes the 20th position in a test comparing a total of 35 tyres. On the other hand, Vredestein Quatrac remains excellent, grabbing the 4th position, thanks to its best features - wet braking, wet circle cornering, and wet handling.
To summarise, our verdict is the Vredestein Quatrac is the superior tyre overall. Featuring excellent wet handling, cornering, and braking functionalities, it offers a safe, comfortable, and superior ride. However, if you are looking for a budget-friendly tyre for dry roads, consider the Linglong Grip Master 4S.
