Tires Continental or GOODRIDGE
I had the previous generation Extreme Contact DWS tires on my previous car and liked them very much. I thought they were pretty good in the snow, especially for a high performance tire. The OEM Conti's on my Passat (it turns out) were good too...handled ok, wore well, but were getting a little noisy.
35 front and rear has always felt good. MPSS and Conti DW and DWS both love 35 PSI as to not roll the sidewall.
the grip is unreal compared to my old tires. Tires - $611 shipped (Continental Extremecontact DW 235-40-18, TireBuyer.com)
I personally love it and it works very well. Tires are Continental Extreme Contact DWS 06 225/40ZR18
I've been running continental contiprocontact, decently priced and great grip. They do me wonders in the rain.
I'm running Continental PureContacts which are an all season touring tire on the mk4. In rain they grip like a bitch. In icy conditions they grip like a bitch. In loose dirt, decomposed granite etc etc they grip like a bitch. They are phenomenal
I just installed the P7 Cinturato on mine a few days ago (235 45 18). They ride nice and handled the rain well. I had Continental PureContact w/Eco Plus for the last 40k. Those were excellent and still had 4/32 - 5/32.
I run the continental DW on my RC's and all I gotta say is I love them. It has a nice ride and they stick like no other!
My 2010 Golf TDI came from Germany with Continental tires and they were great in the rain.
