Commute was great. These tires are amazing. They're called "Gislaved Nordfrost 200's" if you're wondering, I believe they run for around $1,400cdn for the 18" size I have, but would be cheaper for smaller sizes.
I almost bought a set of those federals last summer, until I heard multiple stories of tread separation. Ended up going with Falken 950 ziex. Fairly cheap, and I have no complaints about them.
I like Gislaved Nord Frost tires
Similar van (VW Routan) and I went with Falken Pro G4 A/S @ $108 each at Discount Tire. Nice, quiet and surprisingly better than the OEM Michelin tires that were on there.
Had gislavid nordfrost's on my golf wagon tdi. Would highly recommend these tires. Northern Ontario highway driving, these tires were amazing on ice and hard packed snow, made the wagon feel like it was all wheel drive.
i personally loved my falken eurowinters tires...... incredible grip , very quiet and believe speed rating was up there as well
I ran Falkens on my old A4. They did everything I asked of them (wet, dry, power slides ), for not much money
So the deal surprised me. I got 5 wheels and 2 with bent lip and 3 brand new 245 40 17 falken azenis pt722. So as I drove back stopped by Passaic county tire in psrerson Nj and got the tires dismounted and sold them the tires for $50.
i put yokohama ice guards on this year. we'll see how it goes. before that i had Gislaved Nordfrost tires that were unstoppable in snow storms.
Had Falken Ziex Ze-912... won't buy them again.
