Approaching 15.000 km with them, (225 50 r15), thought that may be interesting to refer my impressions. They are perfect off road and on road at 200km/h +, never detecting slippage under rain or in sharp turns. EDL and ABS rarely engaged, (both working perfectly). There are no signs of premature wear, neither they are loosing pressure.
Pros: perfect off road, no slippage
Cons: Nankang does not recommend
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
Mileage: 15000 km
Stage 2 EQT E85 and NGK 91006 here, but I only order from NGK directly.

Cons: chance of knock-off
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Part number: 91006
I use only LM 6200 0-20w and change oil every 5k or 6 months without fail on my 21 GLI. VG oil, keeping good clean oil in these engines best thing you can do to avoid issues. 55k and still runs like new no mods
Pros: VG oil, runs like new
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 5000 km
Part number: 6200

Getting back to reliability, the one thing that all the forums agree on is that the OEM Continental ProContact TX 245/35R20 on the SEL-P R-Line is vulnerable to just about anything.
Cons: vulnerable to just about anything
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Part number: 245/35R20
Next job to tackle is the weak brakes. Going to start with a brake master cylinder replacement because when I'm sitting at a red light, the pedal goes from hard for about 20-30 seconds to softening up and going to the floor with no clamp force anymore until I pump the pedal again.
Pros: pedal hard initially
Cons: pedal softens, no clamp

my brakes started to vibrate a bit when braking at or above 70mph, and it's only progressively gotten worse. From the first inspection (always at the same dealer I bought it from), I've asked the techs to double check the rotors, as it just didn't seem right to me, but they always brushed it off as normal and no big deal. I just took it in for an inspection (now at 22,700~ miles), and they tell me that yes, my rotors are warped, and that I'll need to replace the rotors and pads to alleviate the issue.
Pros: no issues with pads
Cons: rotors warped, vibration when braking
