Tires OEM BMW or LANDSAIL
Before I switched I had 4 sidewall tears, one bent wheel, and one cracked wheel. $3000 in damage. After I switched, zero issues a year and a half later. Smoother ride and less road noise too.
Pros: smoother ride, less noise
Cons: sidewall tears, bent wheel
Vehicle:
BMW
I’ve been using them for a few years now and we’ve currently got them on a Mazda 6 and a Saab 9-3 and they’re fine. Mine are rated B in the wet and I’ve had zero problems with them.
Pros: rated B in wet, performs well
Cons: longer stopping distances
Vehicle:
Mazda 6
For better handling and winter traction, I would consider getting wider tires.
Pros: better handling
Cons: winter traction
Vehicle:
Toyota
HD thrust arms are an improvement without too much sacrifice. Better shocks as well. I’ve found tires make a huge difference with the E39.
Pros: huge difference with tires
Vehicle:
BMW
Narrow, low-profile tires aren't as forgiving over potholes, especially when riding on the 20" wheels.
Cons: not forgiving over potholes

+1 used those on my e90 BMW last year during the 'record' snowfall and the were great.
Pros: were great

Landsail tires are cheap Chinese tires... I'd replace them as soon as is financially reasonable and possible, as I wouldn't trust my life to Chinese tires.
Cons: cheap, untrustworthy
My R32 came with 4 matching 'new' tyres. They were made by 'Landsail' which apparently is a premium chinese brand... yeah ok... but anyway took it for first MOT a few weeks later and they phoned me up soon after saying I was lucky to still be on the road. The inner walls of the two rear tyres had almost completely perished, held on by threads almost.
Cons: inner walls perished

Volkswagen Golf
