Vredestein Winter Tires

I was wondering if anyone has some experience with Vredestein winter tires? From what I have read they are supposed to be pretty quiet.

Thanks

I have had so many people recommend Nokia winter tires that I've got to believe them. Been using Blizzaks previously (not on the i8, it's stored in winter) but going to switch all winter cars to Nokia.

Thanks. Figured out that the Vredestein do not exist for 215/45/R20 wheels. Nokian seems a good alternative and will probably opt for them.

Nokia R2 works very well. I have driven them in two different wheeltypes (625 and 444), approx 15 000 miles combined. 444 is maybe even a bit more balanced, but just slightly.

Has anyone tried Nokian WR D4 on the front and WR A4 on the rear wheels?
