Tires Nexen or COMFORSER
I had a set of Nexen Winguard Sport 2 on my Golf R and had no issues with them in Vancouver, BC winter.
One tyre brand I highly recommend which is cheap but performs pretty well is NEXEN
I have only used their previous version, Winguard Sports. Can't complain about them. They are a performance winter, so snow and ice won't be as good as a Xice Xi3, blizzak ws-80 or Hakkapeliitta tire
I've only used the original winguard sports. Can't complain for the price and it's purpose. They never let me down in a blizzard...
I had a set of those in 31x10.5x15. I really liked them. I kept the pressures around 25-27 psi had them for almost 30k miles.
Spend the money on a really good set of fronts. Nexen SUR04
I've been quite happy with my Nexens on my E39. They're quiet and smooth. Oh yeah, grip in the snow is quite good too.
The N3000 is ok. Had them on my A4 Avant when I bought it. Dry grip is pretty good, and they do ok in the wet, too. Definitely lacking in grip compared to something like PS2s but not bad. Sidewall is moderately soft and they wear quicker than expected.
And out of all the tires I've ever purchased, Bridgestone/Firestones have been the worst ( only exception were the FR710s on my Aura.) Followed by the garbage Nexens I had on the Optima.
I have some Nexen tires on a Kia Optima and all four are "out of round" with only 17k Miles. Like riding on square block. Crappy tires!
