Tires Continental or GT Radial
Just put on four new 18" Conti Extreme Contact DWS tires on it and the ride is smooth and so very quiet.
I had a set of 4 matching Continental tires with about 90% tread left.
The DWS seems to work fine in everything.
I use conti motions :) get 6/7k miles before I change them.
Confidence inspiring in the wet due to the big recesses in the tyres that help to displace water, cheap enough and also no chicken strips :)
This is my first set of dsw and I like them. I had them when I lived in NJ and they were good. I recommend
I am on my 3rd set of Conti DWS tires. I got 60K out of the first two sets.
I'm on my second set of Conti DWS. I love them for the snow and are nice the rest of the yesr too.
I bought a set of GT radial Champiro with the expectation that it will be just a crap daily driver set. They actually have really good grip for non race tires. Seriously, so much so that when I put the front set on and went to autocross, it caused my car to spin out because the front had more grip than the rear.
I have the Michelin A/S 3s on my MKVI and am very happy with them, they replaced the OEM Contis that came with the car at around 40K.
Conti ExtremeContacts are noisy. I have them on my Mazda5. The tires are especially loud when they are cold and moving at low speed. They feel like good tires and seem to wear well, but the noise factor alone makes me want to not keep them for too long.
