Let's dive into the comparison of two summer tyres: the Vredestein Ultrac Pro and the Pirelli P ZERO PZ4.
Starting with the Dutch-manufactured Vredestein Ultrac Pro, it earned a solid rating of 71% in our review. Its strengths lie in aquaplaning resistance and comfort, while reliable performance on wet and dry tarmac contributed to its positive reputation. This tyre placed 18th in the Autobild test among a total of 52 tested tyres and scored 6th position in the Autozeitung test, which included 10 tyres.
The second one, the Pirelli P ZERO PZ4, received an impressive 89% from our review. It's known as a multi-talented tyre that impresses with its handling characteristics, both on dry and wet surfaces, and garners particular praise for its precise steering behavior and short braking distances, emerging victorious in the dry braking criteria. In mutual tests, this tyre came a little behind the Ultrac Pro in the Autobild test, securing 20th position, but surpassed it by placing 5th in the Autozeitung test.
Though not specified, it's assumed the Pirelli tyre is a sub-type UUHP (Ultra-Ultra High Performance), hinting at its superior capabilities. Neither of the tyres have been replaced by a newer model yet, thereby validating their ongoing competence in providing satisfactory performance.
Let's come down to the verdict as per the comparative data. If you are after exceptional longrolled comfort and superior resistance to aquaplaning, you will appreciate the features of the Vredestein Ultrac Pro. On the other hand, those looking for excellent braking performance on dry surfaces should direct their attention towards the Pirelli P ZERO PZ4.
In terms of overall performance though, weighing the scores, ranks, and features, the Pirelli P ZERO PZ4 appears slightly high around the mark. At the end of the day, the key lies in identifying one that best aligns with your expectations and requirements.
