Tires MRF or OEM Volkswagen

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
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
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

Pros: tires, brakes replaced
Cons: electrical problems
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
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
Need to replace the front soon, I hate the Zappers the longevity is very good it lasts ages but the grip and breaking is pathetic.
Pros: very good longevity
Cons: pathetic grip, breaking
I have beef with MRF, their compound is so hard it makes it seem like I am on roller skates in a wet skating ring when it’s raining.
Cons: hard compound, slippery when wet
Won’t buy MRFs though because they will absolutely get you killed if you push the bike a little bit more than average.
Cons: dangerous at high speed
