I liked Continental DWS06s on my G37 for the street.... they were quiet and had squishy sidewalls for comfort but were grippy AF.
My regular DWS06’s were amazing in the snow last winter.
I normally use Nokian Hakkapeliittas on my Golf and while they still have more than enough legal tread, I don't believe they're optimum for hardpacked snow. Unfortunately, there's a waitlist for new Nokians, so I'm going with Continental Wintercontacts, which have a sterling rating.
I have the Conti, corners well, good traction, pretty loud.
I like General tires for the most part and dislike Goodyear.
I've run about 6 sets of General Grabber ATX - good tires
Continental DSW06, might be able to find older model (not the + I think) for cheaper.
I just did the same switch about 2 weeks ago now. I agree with wet performance, they are fantastic. My two biggest differences I've noticed are the Gmax have a tendency to feel a bit floaty on very specific pavement patterns at highway speed.
I got my RX-7 a set of General Altimax RT43. For the past few thousand miles, no complaints.
My MKVI came with the Continental Procontact tires. I have 37k miles on them and found that after 30k miles, the noise, especially on concrete got pretty loud. The ride was relatively good and not too stiff though.
