Tires MICHELIN or Nokia
Nokian Hakapelita q's My vw dealership here in wpg was able to source them for $122 a tyre The fin's have lot's of ice roads. Nokain's are great ice tyres. In wpg there is alot of ice.
205/55R16. outstanding winter performance.
I use Nokian Hakkapeliitta 1's on my Jetta.
i use pilot alpins! arctic alpins were not too sporty...... especially when wet, so i went with pilots. pretty good tyres in my opinion but not the cheapest.
I have Michelin Arctic Alpines on the 2002 Jetta aswell as the Rabbit. Really good tires in my opinion.
I pulled a 2.19 on the stock 195/65-15 Micheline MXV4s.... and I don't I can do better with a few more practice runs.
I don't know about the Dunlops, but my fiance's Protege had a set of Pilot Alpins last winter, and they worked nicely. Dry handling was also very very good. I'm sure they don't give as much grip as a lower-speed rated tire, but they were still very safe and very stable in the snow.
Just put some nokian hakka q's on the gf's golf.
A friend of mine who lives outside of Chelsea, MI has a Saturn SC2 that rides on Pilot Alpins in the winter. He says those tires are pretty darned good and perfect for the kind of snow that falls around Ann Arbor
I've got Michelin Pilot XGT H4s on my 'roc... They're holding up reqally well, they're three years old now and still have lots of tread left on them, they're awesome in the rain too which is a good thing 'cos I live in Raincouver
