DWS06+ is a great choice for A/S IMO. I think I prefer them over actual summers as a daily tire for summer as well: better tread life, better ride, nicely communicative, & plenty of grip for open road endeavors IME.
For me, the Golf is one of the best all-around vehicles on the market today, offering a very reasonable price point for its capabilities. I have taken my Rs to the track one day and then embarked on a 4,000 km road trip the next. I put over 100,000km on my first R (Mk7) in under a year. It saw the drag strip every Tuesday, AutoX events every Wednesday and Saturday, and HPDEs once a month. The only maintenance issues I had were a water pump replacement at 110,000km and a faulty driver's side window switch at 40,000km. Outside of that, the car didn\u2019t miss a beat.
I love all the things that set it apart from the standard GTI - suspension changes, VAQ improvements, power and brakes.
Der Zahnriemen in unseren Golf 4 hat 21 Jahre gehalten :D
Beim Alfa auch so...Soll wohl alle 4 Jahre gewechselt werden, war über 10 Jahre drin.
IME/FWIW front to back & side to side is fine w/ the DWS06+ although never really had too much of a difference in wear side to side over many sets of them on several vehicles. Front to back has been the biggest difference in wear on my Mk 6, 8.5V S3, Alltrack, & Mk 7.5.
I've run Zimmerman Z coat rotors on my GTI the whole time I've owned it and they're great.
Hankooks- don’t mind them.
If VW made the EA888 engine without a waterpump made of soft cheese.
I still bought one. But it would be good not to treat a waterpump as a regular service item.
Ich habe beim Golf 4 in der Familie Stark Stoßdämpfer verbaut und gammeln nach zwei Jahren.
I don’t use peak anything. it’s actually not great coolant.
