I have them on my GLI and they're great.
I use the Bridgestone Blizzak dm-v2 tires in the winter. They’re amazingly grippy and gives me a lot of driving confidence on snow
I’m not convinced that Chinese tires are terrible, it depends on the brand. ZC tires, who make Westlake and Arisun, I think makes a good product, and have arguably the most advanced automated tire manufacturing for any consumer tires. If you handed me that list and said, you need tires today, these are the brands we have in stock, I’d go with Westlake.
I've always mounted/balanced westlake winter tires onto used cars at my dealer. They're cheap and readily available.
Had great results with blizzaks last year. We got 250 inches of snow
Bridgestone turranza quietrack tires are like riding on rails in foul weather. They are so good I wanted to see what it would take to make them slip- in a parking lot I was jerking the steering wheel lady and right and mashing the gas a brakes - nothing I did could make the car slip.
My current set is Bridgestone Potenza Sport — they’ve been on my car for 3 years now, and honestly, they’ve been really good with no noticeable noise issues.
Bridgestone Alenza Ultra’s for me. Michelin defenders wear out too fast for some reason and I don’t have a heavy foot. While the Crossclimate tires are awesome, they impact MPG too much.
Westlakes are garbage.
They are not good tires and will be the bottom of any performance metric.
