The general consensus was that 235/40 should fit just fine with no rubbing on stock wheels and suspension. Do keep in mind, PSS tires are a tad wider than stock Pirelli.
Ended up ordering the last set of Pirelli Sottozero 3s in the country from tire rack. I'm getting them installed today.
I put over 40k on my p zero tires with the mk6, I know people dog then but I was glad to get them again with my mk7.
I also have the Pirelli Cinturato P7 on my wife's MK6 Jetta and I like them very much as well. They are just as quite and smooth as the Michelins on my CC.
I got the same tires on my 2-door mk7 GTI. I think the tires are great but they were vibrating on the freeway so i had the deal check the balance and two of them were slightly out of balance. Rebalanced and so far so good.
I have Pirelli's on our van and am much happier with them than I am with my Michelin's on my Golf. The Pirelli's are much much better in all conditions.
Got supercorsas on my Daytona. Never ever lost grip and I've had knee toe and peg down. Amazingly sticky tyres
I have the same problems with my p zero neros also. Right at 70 mph that steering wheel jitters. It's not bad, but somewhat irritating. I have had the tires balanced and rotated twice, but the jitter remains. It does seem to be getting better with mileage however. I must say though, these are by far the best all season performance tires I have owned.
the stock P-Zero Neros are garbage. I've replaced all 4 of mine. I have two of them with a decent amount of tread sitting outside because I couldn't bring myself to toss them, but they really suck.
From my experience, when the pirellis start to go, they suck quickly. Didn't realize how bad noise / vibration was @ 20k until I got new Hankook v12s.
