<\/p>\nThe Vredestein Ultrac summer tyre has been chosen as original equipment (OE) by the BMW Group for its X2 and 5 Series models.<\/p>\n
It is also extending an existing supply agreement for the BMW X1 to encompass an additional Ultrac size option.<\/p>\n
The agreement with Apollo Tyres, which owns the Vredestein product brand, means that the supplied Ultrac tyres, in size 225\/55 R18 102 Y XL specification, will be fitted to vehicles on the manufacturing line at the Group\u2019s German facilities.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This is the latest agreement between the BMW Group and Apollo Tyres, following the OE fitment of the Vredestein Ultrac for the X1 (205\/65 R17 100Y XL), and in three sizes (205\/65R16 95W, 205\/60R17 97W XL and 225\/50R18 99W XL) for the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer.<\/p>\n
To further support BMW customers throughout ownership, Ultrac tyres will be available on the replacement market as well as via franchised dealers of the BMW Group.<\/p>\n
Produced at Apollo Tyres\u2019 Gy\u00f6ngy\u00f6shal\u00e1sz plant in Hungary, the Vredestein Ultrac offers impressive levels of grip and rolling resistance and has been developed to facilitate safe and enjoyable driving in both the wet and dry.<\/p>\n
The tyre achieves an \u2018A\u2019 rating in the wet grip tyre label category, satisfying the BMW Group\u2019s focus on safety and performance, and it is suitable for a wide selection of family and compact cars.<\/p>\n
In its latest summer tyre test results, Auto Express commended the Ultrac for its \u2018excellent wet weather performance, particularly in severe conditions\u2019.<\/p>\n
