Tires Giti or Barum
To your comment about the GITI tires...my 2019 SE came with them. I've put about 2k miles on the car so far. I have always been a bit of a tire snob, changing OE tires for higher grade ones rather quickly. But I have to admit that these OE tires have really surprised me. They're quiet, smooth, and do the job a small SUV needs. Now, I'll still probably go with a different company when these wear out, but for now I'm satisfied.
Pros: quiet, smooth, do the job
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
Mileage: 3218 km
We've had significant amounts of rain here in the Denver area with lots of standing water. So far, so good with the Gitis resistance to hydroplaning. No major complaints on these tires having logged about 7K miles in 3 months.
Pros: good hydroplaning resistance
Cons: no major complaints
Mileage: 7000 km
I had minor concerns about these "Giti" tires but they remind me of the Continental Pro Contacts on previous VW's. Handling, noise, traction are all decent for an OEM tire.
Pros: decent handling, decent traction
Cons: funny name
Ive noticed that my new 2019 SE has Giti brand tires. So far, they seem fairly quiet and have an acceptable ride and handling. Running recommended 41psi.
Pros: fairly quiet, acceptable ride
I just bought a used VW and i had to put new tires on it already, someone at a dealer told me to go with the BARIUM Bravuris 2 (All Season tire) on mine 215/40/17" and with 10k+miles so far so good, very quiet, they seem to work better then most brands i know.
Pros: very quiet, good handling
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 10000 km
I got about 23,000 miles out of this set of Barums. They have been a great tire.
Pros: great tire
Vehicle:
Nissan Sentra
Mileage: 23000 km
Cons: **** tires from factory. Giti.
Cons: bad tires from factory
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
