Tires NITTO or NANKANG
Just installed Motivo's on wife's 2006 S4. Really like the tires. Tires are quiet, have excellent wet weather grip and seem resistant to hydroplaning. Also the tires do not follow road seams/grooves. Thinking about putting Motivo's on my 2013 GTI.
Neogens are good tires for the money. Exceptionally quiet, sticky & easy to stretch. I had no problem with a 215 on a 9'" wheel.
I can say that the nitto motivo doesn't suck. Tires for my wrx are always listed as 'ultra high performance' and rarely do much more than 30k miles. These are listed as 60K tires, they perform better than both bridgestone potenza (summer) and nitto's neogens
Get Ns1's. Handle heavy load, stretch well, and respond well to over inflation.
After reading some reviews and looking at pictures of stretched tires in different sizes, I purchased four Nitto Neo Gens in 205/45/ZR17.
I threw on my 4th set of Nitto Gens... Ugh, I love these thangs... Ran 25k with -3.5deg camber and had nothing but even wear on the tires. Hence why I bought another set.
on my second set. i love em. they are super quiet, grippy and soft but dont wear too fast and very comfy.
I got a set on some wheels I traded. I think NS7000 is on the sidewall. They are alright, they are round and black. I haven't had a flat and I go into the uber crappy Boston roads all the time, no bubbles no tread defects. They are just run of the mill budget tires. Would I get them again? Probably not. Can I find anything to complain about? Not really.
lol i wanna know too, my nankangs wore way to fast for me.
I had General's in that size on my old GTI. Awesome tires, but they've gone way up in price since then. After that, I had a set of the Nankangs. Crap tires and the road noise drove me insane. Would not recommend.
