Tires Nexen or Vredestein
Been running Nexen Tires on my last '18 MQB and my current '21 MQB. These hold up great in the rain and in fast driving conditions. When it's raining regularly in Miami, I have never lost traction as these tires really grip the road.
I just in installed 4 of the Vredestein Quatrac Pro from TireRack. They've been on for 2 weeks and initial impressions are much improved over the Giti's. They also have the 3PMSF symbol as well.
Replaced stock Bridgestones with Vredestein Hypertrack [awesome grip]
My private car is equipped with all season Vredestein Quatrac 5, and the company car has 2 sets, the winter being Continental TS860.
Vredstein is a great tire. I ran them in quite a few audis. the best winter tires I ever ran
I have a set of Quatrac Pros on my Audi. I like them. TireRack reviews of them are great. And the sidewall is cool.
A friend uses a set for snow tires on his Lexus LS. He had Blizzaks prior. His only complaint is that they are getting pretty noisy as they wear down. Otherwise he likes them.
I've enjoyed them on my RS3 last winter. Much better than ice & snow Blizzaks, but this is my first experience with a performance winter tire.
despite what people say, the n3000's are that bad. i've had a set for a while now on my could, 195-45-15 on a 15x8, and i've driven the piss out of it, and they've got pretty impressive dry traction and cornering for as cheap as they are... traction goes way down in the rain though, not horrible, but not good either, haha.
Those tires are Nexen N7000's. A few of my cheap clients ran those and N3000's on their cars, years ago, I'd say late 2000 early 2010's. Cracked sidewalls, deformed tires, bubbles in the sidewall, and ridiculous amounts of road noise after a season of use, poor grip in pretty much anything except hot dry asphalt. I hope you have better luck with them than some of my clients.
