I got falken tires made in Thailand on my tahoe and some tires mad in Czech Republic on my mini cooper.
Just put a set of 329s on my A4 and already feel a huge improvement in the ride quality.
I run Falken 512 in 205/45/16 on 16x7 wheels. I wouldn't run 40 sidewall, particularly if stretched onto an 8.
This was my second year on the Gislaved Nord Frost 5. I've had Blizzaks in the past and have used X-Ice, Nokian Hakepellita R, and Toyo (can't remember the model). The Gislaved is by far the best tire. The deep snow grip is by far the best of the bunch, the ice grip is second only to the X-Ice (which had the worst snow traction). Road noise is very low as well.
I HIGHLY suggest Falken Azenis PT722. My local Audi Indy shop is practically getting all of their customers on these after they had it on their performance Audis.... And they loved them. I put them on my Passat.... Best tire I have had on that car.
I have the azenzias on my GLI and they're still on in this winter, and have been really impressed.
Obviously wish falken was still making 512's but overall very happy so far.
I got some Falken winter tires (Northeast Ohio), they worked great for me last year, but the snow we get here in Ohio is laughable by Minnesota standards.
Nordfrost 5 (no studs) for the Tig (4motion), Marangoni 4ice on the Passat. I like the Nordfrosts better (had the Nordfrost 3 on the Jetta and loved them there too).
Mine is super annoying between 20-30mph. Running Falken ze-512, for now. They have always been loud but now that they are cupped a bit, it is bad.
