R Wagon, studded 17" Good Year Ultra Grip Ice Arctic. I'll say no more..
Pros: Good grip on ice
Stock bridgstones suck in the snow, the best systems can't help wrong tires for the conditions. 18" X-ice3's, have PP and Jb1 power and the traction systems are very impressive in my opinion. The car limits the power aggressively to maintain traction and control even in very slick conditions (good thing).
Pros: traction systems impressive
Cons: stock bridgstones suck
It is pretty good with snow tires. Sometimes I disable ASR AND ESC so the car under steers less. But it is a huge improvement over my MK VI with snows.
Pros: huge improvement over MK VI
Cons: car under steers less
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
I recently changed wheels and tires on my jetta and I really enjoy the new look as well as the grip from the new tires. I went with a set of hankook v2 and they feel pretty solid so far.
Pros: good grip, feel solid
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Nitto 555s on my Shelby were the best tire I've ever had on a car.they were super sticky and quiet.
Pros: super sticky, quiet
Vehicle:
Ford
The new Hankook V12 Evo2 is supposed to be better in terms of quietness and driveability. That may be a good buy on a budget.
Pros: quietness, driveability
Vehicle:
BMW
The X-Ices are the best on your list, especially with the discount.
Pros: best on your list
I can't input on the stretch, I am running the proxes 4 , I'm running a 19x8.5 with a 215-35 so my stretch is not close to what yours will be but I can tell you these tires are super loud with tons of road noise.
Cons: super loud, tons of noise
I drove a set of Triangle Talon tires for a year on my SVT. Dry traction was surprisingly not terrible but they were AWFUL in the slightest hint of wet weather. Forget cold weather.
Pros: decent dry traction
Cons: awful in wet weather
