Tires Continental or Goodyear
Had a DWS06, which I wore off.
Bought DWS06+, still riding those.
Excellent snow, ice and wet weather traction. Never had issues!
I'm very happy with mine too. Many years with Blizzaks and I think these are better for road nose, just as good in the snow.
I just got my 2022 Golf R and the dealership put those exact tires on for me and they are great!
I'm running VikingContact7 on the wife's Passat, and I have Hakkapeliitta R3 on my Alltrack. I figure when the R3 get replaced next fall VikingContact7 will replace them. They are excellent on snow and ice and very quiet. I've driven thru stuff on them that after I get thru I realize I probably should have been more careful, but didn't notice a thing a the time. I don't do that with the Hakkapeliittas.
I'm running the Conti VIkingContact7s. I had them on my 2019 and the dealership transferred them over to the new car for me since they're the same size. I've been very happy with them over the past two winters. They will definitely give up some dry weather handling to something like a PA4, but they're excellent on snow and ice. They're also reasonably quiet for a winter tire as well.
I have the extreme contacts dws 06 plus in a 225 45 17 and i love them, super grippy even in the rain and ive put almost 3000 miles on the set and they look like new still
If you hop on TireRack.com and don’t mind getting a Goodyear credit card on the spot, you can get a killer deal on the Goodyear Assurance Weatherready which I think would fit your needs well
Great choice! I did the same and we traveled 27k miles with them so far without issue!
Oh, and I guess I did have a set of some Continental Wintercontact of some flavor last winter, and they were fine. Nothing really good to say, nothing bad either.
Mine only made it about 20k. They aren't very good off-road tires either.
