I have Conti Viking Contacts on at the moment. The contis are very quiet.
Owner reviews for tires
The past couple of sets I've had were Michelin X-Ice and they've been excellent. The X-Ices last for 40k or something.
More sidewall rubber gives a softer ride and absorbs winter roughness better, so a good idea. I went 29 inch 235/60R18 x-Ice for even more rubber and they are great.
Replacement rear tyres wearing incredibly well (Kumho) and will likely do another 15,000 miles
For my current car, I got the Falken Wildpeak A/T Trail tires. They have the 3 mountain peak emblem so they're rated for snow. Have had them for close to 2 weeks and so far, so good.
Want a real out there suggestion. The 2017 Chevy Bolt EV. Kind of a rare car. But my dad had one and it was an absolute blast. 200 hp and 266 ft/lb torque that was *instantly* available made the car way faster than you would have ever guessed. Once you ditched the terrible economy tires on it, it handled incredibly well because all the weight was way down low. It was also really well balanced because, while front wheel drive, most of the weight was in the middle - so it didn't really act like a typical front wheel drive car.
I’ve been driving a Honda CRV with Bridgestone Blizzaks and haven’t had any issues.
I just had these put on my ‘23 R1S. The ride home was smooth. I didn’t notice any difference between the stock Pirelli’s as far as noise and quality go.
I spin the stock Hankooks on the Mk8 constantly. Which is crazy for a 235 summer tire on a 240hp car.
Mine started getting noisy after like 20k miles. I replaced them with some crappy laufen tires lol
