Tires DUNLOP or FEDERAL
I never had any trouble with Dunlop M3's
Dunlop SP Winter Sport 3D Have been wonderful so far (about 1 month). I needed good overall tires since the autobahn is cleaned up nicely very quickly and only the smaller roads have snow/ice on them.
I've got a set of Dunlop SP Winter Sport 3D on the STI this year. So far I've been impressed.
I spent this weekend driving my R with the OEM Dunlop A/S M+S tires in light snow, snow that was about 6" deep, ice covered roads and wet roads that were iced over in certain locations (black ice) such as bridges etc.
Well I finally had a chance to road test the new Dunlop SP Winter Sport 3D tires on the R32 on wet ice in freezing rain. Bearing in mind that I have driven VWs on top quality snow tires for many years, I can say I was pleasantly impressed with both the R32 and the Dunlop 3D tires.
I had a set of Dunlop wintersport M3s on my last car and was really happy with them.
IIRC he said it dropped him like two more inches and it's VERY stiff.
Last year it was Dunlop Wintersport M3s, which were ok, but not as good as the Semperits
you dont want them anyway.. They have to be the worst tier ever made, and will only last one season at most
My GTI came with Dunlop Sport 01 A/S. DO NOT get these tires. I have 6000 miles on my car, and have gone through 3 of them so far due to leaks and bubbles. They don't hydroplane much, I give them that, but they do not take well to potholes at all.
