I have a MK6 and it handles great on snow with winter tires.
Michelin X-Ice. Haven't found anything better. No amount of Canadian snow or ice has been able to stop my SUV and when those are on, and I live in a hilly area.\n\nI have General Artimaax on my other car, they are ok, but road noise is insane. Won't buy those again.
Been using General Altimax Arctics and love them vs non-studded tires.
I have General Altimax Artics. Because they are seasonal they last a long time.
The original tires were getting slippery so put in new General all season the fall of 2024. Now handles top notch.
I've been happy with General G Max on a few cars and going to continental extreme contact dws 06 plus next set of shoes on whatever car needs them first.
I've had good luck with a set of General tires on my A4. The General tires cost less and perform better in every way so far.
My go to budget tire are the General Altimax RT45s. I’ve had them and Michelin cross climate 2s and Nokian tires. The generals are a great value and wear nicely. They aren’t CC2s but do the job fine as an all around tire and the reviews and tests back that up and they handle snow pretty well.
I do have good experience with true winter tires (General Tire ArctiMax) and I will say that they will still slide even at slower speeds if it's ice and hard packed snow and you're aggressive enough with the controls.
I’ve got the generals and they are absolute shit in the snow up here in the north. Swapping them out this week. For the 6 months I had them without snow they felt great for a highway tire
