I got some Sailuns for our Montana 5th wheel and from my load range G goodyears to my load range G Sailuns I was getting 1.9mpg better on average and it pulls alot nicer. Have about 19,000 miles on them since putting them on last spring.
Owner reviews for tires
I just put these on my heavy TT. they were substantially beefier than the ST tires they replaced. My set were made in Germany. They're expensive, but as a victim of a blow out on 2 year old STs, I can tell you that the price difference would have been less than the cost of the collateral damage.
Just moved from Nokian all weather, which are really good, to studded Contis on a small fwd vehicle. Pretty unreal difference. Have Bridgestone all weather on an awd vehicle, which are also good, but the studded Contis beat the crap out of them.
I really like my studdless tires. So much better with them. As long as. The ground isn't slushy lose shit, it feels very much like regular clean road driving
I got her **\*\*Goodyear Winter Commander Studded Tires\*\***. Now I still cringe and cry and ask to get off the ride. And there are finger print marks in the dash from my death grip. But that being said, even in the crazy conditions we have had, come ice or snow or other Winnipeg Drivers, she has yet to find a situation where the tires break loose under hard breaking.
Yes, get 16" Tig OEM steelies and hub covers, and have your VW dealer put on Nokian Hakkapellitas or Rotivas, that you can order on Tire Rack to ship free to the dealer or your local shop. Dont wait too long as these are the best winters you can buy
I got new Michelin all seasons that are just as awesome.
Nokian WR G4's are low rolling resistance, and does well in the snow/packed snow/ice until the snowflake disappears, and doesn't affect gas mpg.
For those looking to run K02's year round- they have sub par wet and slush traction. Fantastic in all other instances. Amazing in deep snow.
Michelin just always crack.
