Nevegal is a much better choice for cornering than ardent. I've done nevegal front/ardent rear before, but I really would be reluctant to push cornering speed on an ardent up front.
I have them on my 250l and they work great, they get the job done off road while still providing a lot of grip on road. The tire compound is quite soft which helps on road.
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.
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 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.
- Quiet when new - Reasonable grip dry/wet - Cheap to buy http://****************.com/smile/emthdown.gif - Lack of serious siping = don't bother in the snow - Gets noisy starting about halfway worn - If you have any autocrossing aspirations... don't.
I'd avoid falkens One car I bought had them installed 5k before I bought the car. I had the receipt of everything and they were already below 50% worn. (they were 512's) I then bought another car with Falken 912's that were put on 15k a go and they only have about 3-5k tread left.
