In this comparison, we are comparing a tyre from a manufacturer from Taiwan (
Maxxis) against a tyre from a manufacturer from Holland (
Vredestein). Generally,
Vredestein allround tyres are slightly better rated (69%) than
Maxxis (65%). In this particular case, the Maxxis Premitra AS AP3 has a better rating of 65% compared to 60% of the Vredestein Quatrac Pro+. The first tyre test of Maxxis Premitra AS AP3 was done in 2019, compared to 2023 when was the Vredestein Quatrac Pro+ first tested. Important for this comparison is also the
ACE 2024 215/50 R18 test, where both the
Premitra AS AP3 and the
Quatrac Pro+ were tested. If you wonder where the tyres in question are made, the
Premitra AS AP3 is made in China and
Quatrac Pro+ is made in Hungary.
