Tires Goodyear or WEST LAKE
I mostly can't get 200tw track tires that fit my car, but the Supercar 3R is a wonder compared to its main competitors in the category of OEM performance car fitments (Cup 2, Trofeo R). Substantially faster, more consistent, and cheaper.
I'm happy to report that after several months of driving I've enjoyed the Reliant a lot. They've been good performers in the wet and are wearing quite nicely.
The Goodyear reliant from Walmart are affordable and unlike other cheapo tires the side walls aren’t paper thin
I work at Goodyear and they look like normal new snows to me, the softer rubber can pick dirt and other shit up faster than other tire models if not driven in winter conditions if you’re referring to the faded coloration
My local tire store didn’t have the Hankook in stock so I went went Goodyear Electric Drive and I like them quite a bit. There was a YouTube video about EV tires and the Electric Drive also got good ratings across many categories. So they were well balanced. The Hankook have quite a bit less grip than some other brands but that’s paid off in less rolling resistance and better range.
When I had my Mk7 R, I put on Westlake winter tires and they were dirt cheap yet surprisingly very good.
I had Maxlife on my 1.5T and was satisfied
Goodyear exhilarates are the quietest ones I've had, also the only ones I had to replace because of a wall bubble.
Back in the early 2000's I had a set of these on my old K5 blazer (94 model)... They didn't drive like they were made of rubber so much as a hard plastic. I felt the traction was very poor with them. After that I've been running KO2's since. Won't purchase goodyear again.
When they were new, they were great. As soon as they started losing tread my traction in the rain was terrible. Certainly won't be buying these again. Be warned.
