They're sort of expensive I think, but the Bridgestone Battlax S20 is really nice in the wet. I had Pirelli Diablo Corsas and moved away from them specifically because of their poor performance in the wet.
Saab with Potenza RE970AS Pole Position tires. Best 3 season tire IMO.
Myself I am on stock breaks with upgraded components. I am running 18x8.5 235/40/18 Bridgestone(RE71R) VMR v810 One thing is when or if you lower the car the 8.5 at ET45 wheel might rub.
Stock bridgstones suck in the snow, the best systems can't help wrong tires for the conditions. 18" X-ice3's, have PP and Jb1 power and the traction systems are very impressive in my opinion. The car limits the power aggressively to maintain traction and control even in very slick conditions (good thing).
I have blizzak WS80 215 55 R16. I love them. Just waiting for some snow here in the Midwest .But they handled very nicely in a downpour earlier this week.
Found a guy on graigslist selling barely used bridgstone blizzaks, I mounted them on my 17" stock wheels. Went through last winter here in the northeast and I def recommend these!
I got a set of Bridgestone Blizzak WS-80 P195/65/r15 tires from costco and I am very happy with them.
I ran them on my 850 volvo for a while. Seemed to wear well and I had no issues.
I have cheap Chinese I think, Nexan tires on my GTI because thats what the dealer put on the car. The ride real smooth, very quite and after 2 years and 20k miles they just wont' wear out. Probably have another 20k miles left to them. The wet grip is awful though. Dry grip is good.
I have the Bridgestone Potenza's that came with my car. I complained about road noise at 5000 miles and VW said "all the GTI's are like that". Then it got louder. So now the car has 16,000 miles on it. It sounds like a 747 is approaching the runway. I will NEVER purchase a Bridgestone product in the future. Anyone else have issues with the Bridgestone Potenza
