I'm based in Toronto, Canada, and I have two sets of wheels for my 2024 GTI. The summer set consists of 17 inch wheels with Conti Extreme Contact II tires. These are pure summer tires, very quiet and excellent traction.

17 inch borbets and 215/50R17 Firestone Winterforce 2 good solid winter tire had them on my veloster as well.
I have 265k on my 2002 Weekender purchased new. Run Mobil-1 0W-40. No problems with engine but transmission needs TLC.
Sticking with my Pirelli PZero AS Plus 3's on my stock 19" Scottsdales. More than enough for the bit of snow we get here, perfect for the winter temperature range we get and (trigger warning for those who claim snow tires or no tires), they're M+S rated so they are legal on mountain passes here if I decide to drive through them
Going with Pirelli P Zero AS Plus 3 XL. Haven't had much snow last few years but do get temps cold enough to need at least all-season tires.
I like the Altimax on my Passat.
I have seen some test results on ID3 after 100000 km and still everything is quite good on the car. Battery is not damaged like on a cellphone if that is your worry.
Definitely upgrade the headlights to HID's, stock they are marginal at best.
I've had Uniroyals for a bit more than a year now, and honestly I'm not so impressed. I find it they lack grip in heavy cornerring, and also the 1st gear spins like mad if you try to step on it.
The Atlas oem pads sound like dying squealing pigs well after break in, only fix is to install aftermarket pads
