No idea about prices and avaliability where you are but as far as winter tyres go I recommend Michelin and Nokian.
I used these tires / steel wheels on my 2008 Jetta for one winter. If you've never used winter tires you need to try it. All wheel drive is nice to get moving but they can't help you turn or stop. Winter tires do everything better - more grip for turning, stopping, and starting. The winter rubber compound and tread gives much better grip in all cold weather conditions - dry, wet, sleet, slush, or snow.
Michelin Pilot Sport all-seasons have been my chosen tire for the last year and a half, and I am really happy with them! Loads of grip, however because I opted for 225s, I hydroplane sometimes on standing water
I have Ventus V12 Evos in 205/40/17 on my MX-5 and I really like them. As as street tire/occasional autocross tire they have not let me down. I've run them to temps as low as the low 40's Fahrenheit and have been pleased with their performance.
I have a set of the Ventus V12 Evos on my R53, and they see auto-x and daily driving. I think they are great tires for the money, they are quiet, precise, and have some pretty incredible grip.
I'm running the V12's and find them pretty good for track/auto x duties. They especially shine in the wet. I find that I need to run them at a higher psi (around 38-40) to compensate for the 'sidewall issue' though.
Very early notice here but just got my VW back from the dealer. They put replacement LS2's on and road/force balanced. Test drove and had the steering wheel shake. Well, after reading it and finding the shakes still there with new LS2’s, they borrowed a set of Latitudes off another Touareg on site. No shakes.
Currently on PSSs. Phenomenal tire. Had PS2s on the 330 and they wore very well. Yes the rears were gone at 30K, but the fronts were still at 5/32s.
I have Michelin PA3 now and used them last winter. Not problems at all, they are definitely great on snow, ice, AND tarmac. They feel very very close to the stock AS and don't eat too much fuel economy.
those look decent I have hancook snow tires myself but a different model. They are loud, ride quality sucks, I can spin the tires without trying (not a good thing) and I can't turn hard with them but they are great in the snow which is all that matters
