Tires NITTO or TIGAR
I have these on my MKV R32 and love them. They are the best tires I have had on this car (previously Sumitomo HTR P01 A/S which were the LEAST durable tire ever and OEM stock dunlops) These are the most quiet, grippiest, most comfortable tires I have used.
Damn those stretch incredibly well compared to my Nitto's These are my 205/40/18 on an 8.5
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
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.
My Fox had 185/60/14's when I bought it new. I've ran this size for may years mostly in Pirelli and Yokohama's. They seem to be about just right. I did try 195/60/14 but I got a wheel rub in the rear when I hit hard bumps. Now I had some NITTO - NT01 Ultra HP that were 205/55/14. I really like the way these tires looked on the Fox , they are only + 0.07 difference in Side Wall height compared to the 185/60/14. What I liked was the width of the tire is 8.07" wide -vs- 7.28" wide. The only Cons about these tires is that they are very soft. So you are lucky if you get 30,000 miles out of them.
They slip like crazy in my g in the rain. NT05s in 285 width. Good dry performance. Scares me a little on raining freeway rides.
Wrote my car off into an enbankment on NT05's in the rain while driving normally.
