Tires Achilles or TIGAR
I'm running 235/45/17 on my car and I had to get 5mm spacers up front to clear the coilovers. Car is on stock 04 GLI wheels now.
Pros: clear the coilovers
Cons: needed 5mm spacers
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
I'm running the achilles atr sport 2s. These are a cheap tire and won't compare to a michelin or conti but they're pretty good for the price. I have about 30k miles on them, they got me through utah mountain winters, and I've been running -2.5 degrees of camber all around. So for the money they did their job.
Pros: good for the price
Mileage: 48280 km
I ran them on three cars. They are my favorite Budget tire they stretch well and look good stretched. I have never had them lose air on me. They are a little louder than some tires I think but not by much. I have them on my GTI right now and can't say enough for the price of them.
Pros: stretch well, look good
Cons: a little louder
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Achilles atr are great and stretch very well for the price. Also running federals now but they run a lil wide
Pros: great stretch for price

Cons: could be better in wet

Hitting 30k on my set on my 2015 Mazda6 rotated at every oil change (7k miles). Go ahead and pay less. You aren't cheaping out.
Pros: pay less
Vehicle:
Mazda 6
Mileage: 30000 km
I also plan on installing the Achilles tires in the near future after powder coating my wheels, am anxious to see how they wear and handle
Pros: anxious to see handling
Cons: anxious to see wear
Achilles Atr sport 2 front
I don't trust them and they are noisy. If you have any issues with them, it can take a week or two to get a new one.
Cons: noisy, not trusted
Mileage: 14000 km
Horrible tires. Super loud road noise
Cons: Super loud road noise
