Fanatical Precision for the Final Thousand Meters. And the Hundreds of Thousands Before That.

When other tire companies were putting paraffin in their tread to increase shelf life (they still do, too—squeeze an unmounted tire at your retailer’s to see for yourself), Vredestein was pioneering high-silica tread compounds to increase tread life without affecting handling or performance. When other companies buy natural rubber for their high-end racing tires to reduce rolling resistance, Vredestein has maintained its own Malaysian rubber plantations since 1946. Finally, consider the high-end racing clincher. And while other companies advertise “tubular-quality ride,” Vredestein delivers. With a casing technology that permits a 145psi recommended pressure for lower rolling resistance and unsurpassed cornering consistency. Tread, rubber, pressure. Just three examples of the difference between precision, and fanatical precision. And between other tire brands, and Vredestein.

Enschede, The Netherlands
Located near the Rhine river on the Dutch/German border and founded in 1325, the city of Enschede is famous for three things. Summer music festivals, Grolsch beer (the company’s headquarters are here and its logo adorns virtually every public building in the center of town), and of course, Vredestein tires.
