Vredestein are a fairly long established budget brand in the UK.

I had two, then four, of them on a Scirocco, replacing P6s, in the '80s
and they were entirely unremarkable - nothing especially good, nothing
noticably bad.

The /60 P6000s on 14" wheels that replaced them were better, but only
when going for it...

I had some on my E36 a few years ago. Not bad, but Goodyear Ultragrips
are better in every regard except noise.
