Vredestein Sessanta - what's up with these?

[Big Jim]

I'm finally in need of new summer tires for my 2006 330i and likely not going to get the run flat bridgestones I currently have. My local mechanic sells vredestein and is pushing the ultrac sessanta tires.

I've looked around the web for reviews and I have to say, the reviews are so good and seem to address my every concern, that I believe vredestein is writting them. This is not new, many companies hire people to pose as customers and blog about how good their products are.

So if anyone here actually has these tires and does not work for vredestein, please let me know what you think of them. They are not any cheaper than some of the well known brands sold by tire rack, were I've bought all my tires and wheels for the past 15 years or so.

Thanks in advance...
