Tires Hankook or Tesla
On my MK VI R I run Hanhook Icept Evo's in the winter, they are a "snow" tire winter rated and all but they are also geared towards high performance. I feel very confident in conrnrs and such when its dry unlike some snow tires that are mush and don't handle well. In a car like the R it would be a shae to use a tire that doesn't allow the car to handle well when roads are dry or just slightly wet. the Icepts are a great snow tire. I have had zero issues wit their performance on snowy surfaces especially with the AWD you can basically go WOT from a stop in the snow and have no traction issues.
I am running 17x8 +45 Neuspeed RSe05 with 245/40R17 Hankook RS-3's with no problems
I get lucky out of the blue one day and luck into a set of virtually free new take off Hankooks from another new Jetta. I ditch the Contis and put on the Hankooks. HOLY COW. Drives like the car should have from day one.
The Ventus V12 EVO K110 is Hankook's Max Performance Summer tire developed for the drivers of sports cars, sporty coupes, and high performance vehicles. A PROVEN street-tire known to deliver superb control and braking.

I've got the same brand tires on my car, 10,000 miles on them and they are still good. Taken them on a 300 mile roadtrip, 90+ mph speeds, dirt roads.
I have 17x8 RPF1's with 245/40 R17 Hankook V12's and I have no problems with rubbing. Final et is 35 in the front and 30 in the rear on my car. I'm also lowered on ST Coils to about a 2 finger gap all around.
The V12s were fine in the wet on my GTI, but pretty iffy on the M3. Some of that may have also been related to the way I drove either car and each car's respective power. The M3 basically spun the rear tires in the wet on anything but Michelin Pilot Super Sports (which were absolutely phenomenal in the dry & wet).
I had the 18" Hankook tires on my 2012 Highline and managed to get almost 50,000 KMs out of them before I traded the car. They were always quite noisy, and they wore terribly.
