Tires GISLAVED or WANLI
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.
Pros: amazing on ice, hard snow
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
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.
Pros: unstoppable in snow storms
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.
Pros: deep snow grip, low noise
Cons: ice grip second best
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).
Pros: liked the Nordfrosts better
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
another winter tire i was (am probably gonna get this week) is the Gislaved Nordfrost 5 (Part of the Continental Tire group). All ive been reading are great reviews and best bang for the buck.
Pros: best bang for buck, great reviews
The Gislaved snow tires and AWD came in very handy as rain turned to freezing rain and then snow along our route.
Pros: handy in rain and snow
Vehicle:
Volvo XC70
i luv cheap tires... im on my 3rd season on my wanli's
Pros: cheap, long lasting
i just bought a set of these this past fall. havent had a chance to drive them yet though. real cheap and they seem to be very beefy and the sidewalls are super sturdy. low tread wear also. Wanli s-1099 215/40/17
Pros: very beefy, super sturdy sidewalls, low tread wear
Part number: S-1099
