Tires Toyo or Continental
I dirve a 2008 Subaru Impreza WRX and when I moved to Colorado 2 years ago, I put on Continental ExtremeContact DWS tires. I love them! They are so much better than the OEM tires were. I've driven the car on mountain roads during heavy snow.
The Continental ExtremeContact DWS are fantastic tires, WAY better than any other AS I have run in the snow and the only AS tire that has allowed my to traverse my steep driveway in the snow, excellent in the wet and quite good in the dry while being pretty quiet.
Mine are at ~28 to 30psi on 205/40/16 Toyo Proxes4 16x9 RH wheels
I love continental extreme winter contacts... had them on my old car. I had michelins in the past as well, and prefer the continentals
I have a B7 V6 Passat Wagon here in Australia and they come with Continental ContiSportContact 5 and they are amazingly quiet, much better than the Pirelli P Zero's I had on my R36 Wagon.
+ get the continental DW, it has soft walls
By far the best tire I've ever ridden on. Just excellent all around.
Tires - I almost forgot! The Toyo tires were fine. Like any street tire, they got a bit greasy near the end of a 20 minute track session. Otherwise, no issues.
The tires I had on my 20th were recalled because of some side wall crakcing that caused them to leak air and les schwab sold me a set of 225/40/18 Toyo somehting or other for $312 out the door because of the hassle I went through with the recalled set I bought from them.
they stretch like doody. the lip protector is huge on them
