Tires SUMITOMO or GISLAVED
Had them on the Jetta for 2 years now. Great summer tire for general use. Don't expect it to handle sporty or go anywhere in the snow. But they do have a very low rolling resistance and will reward you with better mileage.
another winter tire i was (am probably gonna get this week) is the Gislaved Nordfrost 5 (Part of the Continental Tire group). All ive been reading are great reviews and best bang for the buck.
I've got them on my Miata. I'm happy with them.
The Gislaved snow tires and AWD came in very handy as rain turned to freezing rain and then snow along our route.
I have directional Sumitomo HTR-Z II tires and I don't have a single complaint after almost 6 months. Very quiet, great grip, great wear rating, and very good wet traction.
I got a set of Sumitomo HTZII's and those are the shizzit, very responsive, good traction, and best of all super quiet.
New tires (Sumitomo HTR-4, 195/50/15) All parts replaced have been done in the last 10 miles.
