I've enjoyed them on my RS3 last winter. Much better than ice & snow Blizzaks, but this is my first experience with a performance winter tire.
I bought a set of these for the wifes EOS maybe 2 years ago from tirerack and they made a huge improvement compared to what she had, i think kumho's. Less road noise, more grip all around.
Just bought kumho ecsta pa51s for a really good price from Quattro tires based in Quebec. Have dealt with them before on kumhos and have good customer support and shipping times. The pa51s are high performance all seasons with really good tread wear but not a lot of recognition they’re really nice so far.
I put a set of Vredestein Quatracs on my wife's MB E350 4matic. They absolutely transformed the car for the better. I'd like to find some for my GTI. I highly recommend them.
I bought these tires based on Tire Rack's review and it is spot on. The one word in the review that stuck with me and I'd have to agree with is luxurious. They feel that way. They are clear to me the best tires I've ever owned. And, I have been driving for more than 45 years. They are quiet, handle really well in both dry and wet.
The next tires i plan on getting are Kuhmos. I had some on a '16 GLI that were very quiet and rode great.
Go with the Vredestein; significantly underappreciated tires and an incredible value
If you want something more laid back like tires that should have come from the factory except actually good, it's the Vredestein. More of a cruising tire, really.
The Kumho's aren't that bad in noise, until you get to the halfway point, then it starts to get noisy.
The kuhmo solus are the worst tires I've ever seen cost way to much for what they actually do for mileage. I've seen brand new kia's with <20k miles need brand new tires after being factory equipped with Solus's.
