First impressions of Vredestein Wintrac Pro+ tires on my Tesla
I have just purchased Vredestein Wintrac Pro+ winter tires for my Tesla Model 3 Performance. In this video I want to show you how much tire profile tread depth you get when you buy these Wintrac Pro Plus new tires from Vredestein. Also after the first miles/kilometers driving I will share with you my overall impressions of the noise that these Vredestein winter tires produce. I hope this short video is helpful and please follow me for more updates on my Vredestein Wintrac Pro+ winter tires in different winter conditions on my Tesla and how they will perform over time.
How much profile depth for new winter tires is normal?
New winter tires typically have a tread depth of 10/32 to 11/32 inches (8 to 9 mm), which is deeper than all-season or summer tires to better grip snow and ice.This depth allows the aggressive tread patterns to compress snow and channel water/slush effectively. For context:
- Legal minimum for any tire: 2/32 inch (1.6 mm).
- Recommended minimum for winter tires: 5/32 to 6/32 inch (4 to 4.8 mm), as performance drops sharply below this.
Always check your specific tire model’s specs, as slight variations exist by brand. Use a tread depth gauge for precision.
