vs
Tires ADVAN or OEM Volkswagen
Reviews
Yes, they are good for the price. They last a while, but aren’t as grippy as other 200tw tires.
They do give great driver feedback due to stiff sidewalls, but this comes at the addition of road noise.
On track they come up to temp nice, and are gentle as they reach the edge of traction. They also don’t turn to ice when overheating, they just slowly start getting slippery.
Overall for the price, if you can only afford 1 set of tires, I’d recommend.
Pros: good for the price
Cons: road noise, less grippy
Vehicle:
BMW M2

These tires were just taken off a two-week old 2022 Volkswagen GTI. The tires were driven lightly during break-in period before dismounting with only 315 miles on them. They are in as-new condition.
Pros: as-new condition
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 507 km
Overall the I found the GTI was very impressive at a track that doesn't cater to FWD and with terrible 560tw all seasons.
Pros: very impressive
Cons: terrible all seasons

I think the single largest shortcoming is the tires. After that, probably the suspension. After I owned it for about 6 months I noticed that driving over potholes and speedbumps was not nearly as good as I was expecting out of a lifted car.
Cons: driving over potholes not good
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
The ride on 20" are quite harsh when compared to all other smaller wheels sizes with the same tires. I got 20" for both summer and winter, rosario ones, obviously with different tires and the winter tires with have a softer widewall and generally more rubber not being a low profile tires rides much better than the summer tires.
Pros: winter tires ride better
Cons: 20" ride quite harsh
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
