vs
Tires LANDSAIL or OEM Volkswagen
Reviews
I did get new wheels and tires and couldn\u2019t be happier. The 205/55s are a better choice for general use, being much quieter overall and considerably less harsh on city streets, while keeping very solid highway performance.
Pros: quieter, less harsh
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
I test drove all 3 tire size when shopping the Arteon, don't be fooled, size does matter. As expected, 18 inch has the best ride and the 20 the worst. It was quite noticeable even on the short drive.
Pros: 18 inch best ride
Cons: 20 inch worst ride
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Apart from the stock all-season tires being abysmally horrid in the winter (I have another set of wheels with summer-only tires for warm weather), I haven't had any issues with my car and using the go-pedal.
Pros: no issues using go-pedal
Cons: horrid in the winter
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Just drove my mk5 through a winter storm. (quite literally) It performed very well! It has identical handling characteristics to the mk6 Golf. As others have said, it strongly depends on the tires.
Pros: performed very well
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
I get 37mpg city in my tdi, and the best mileage I ever got on my rabbit (2.5 mkv) was 32mpg with 15's and ultra low rolling resistance tires.
Pros: stellar mileage

I've had several cars of the $150 variety. The best was a 1990 VW Fox that I bought for $150 from the original owner. I then proceeded to drive it about 150K before I spent another cent on it besides oil tires and gas.
Pros: drove 150K miles
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Fox
Mileage: 150000 km
My last vw, jetta, the rears always got scalloped eventually, even with rotations...now on the CC, just had the tires again rotated with the 30k service and the noise from the front is annoying as hell...that droning reverbish kind of sound.
Cons: noise from the front
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
Mileage: 30000 km
I got my car from a dealership with Landsail tires on it. Complete garbage
Cons: complete garbage
Landsail tires are cheap Chinese tires... I'd replace them as soon as is financially reasonable and possible, as I wouldn't trust my life to Chinese tires.
Cons: cheap, untrustworthy
My R32 came with 4 matching 'new' tyres. They were made by 'Landsail' which apparently is a premium chinese brand... yeah ok... but anyway took it for first MOT a few weeks later and they phoned me up soon after saying I was lucky to still be on the road. The inner walls of the two rear tyres had almost completely perished, held on by threads almost.
Cons: inner walls perished
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
