Volkswagen Eos parts reviews

I switched out my Hankook V4's to Michelin Pilot Sport A/S3...eliminated 75% of my wheelspin off the line (I should note that I have APR Stage I on the vehicle)...essentially has made reconsider getting the dogbone mount upgraded on the EOS. I've had the stock Conti's, Pirelli P4's, and the last set of Hankook's on...A/S3's blow them out of the water for grip.

instead of so-so ContiProContacts, my baby is now sporting top-of-the-line treads - Michelin Primacy MXM's.

I went with the Continental ExtremeContact DWS for my 2008 EOS LUX, replacing the OEM Goodyear Eagles. While no snow (yet), I'm very happy with them. The car handling is significantly better and, very importantly, the squeal when accelerating is gone.

I replaced mine with Hankook Ventus HRII's, which have performed quite well for the price (I got 18"s for about 110 each). Definitely more grip off the line than the OEM Michelin's and P6's (I've driven both).

I bought some Yokohama YK520s. As for performance they drive well and don't seem to squeal as much when they spin. The handling is very good and the ride is about the same as the Michelins. They road noise is also similar. They handle wet real well

My 09 Lux only has about 6000 miles but when I bought it I expected to replace the OE tires right away. I had done my homework and came up with the Dunlop SP Sport Signature as the best bet, at a good price too.

There's a really interesting all-season Yokohama tire available (called the Advan S4) in 235/50R17 that is "AA" rated for traction, has a 400 treadwear ratiing, and is one of the least expensive tires in its category and size at $186. Its also rated #1 in the ultra high performance all season category. I'd go with this in a second.

I got Michelin Pilot HX MXM 235R45/17 tires on my Eos with Lux. While this is much better than the Goodyear's, I thought it was supposed to have all season tires, not summer tires?

Confirmed, mine also came with 235/45/R17 Michelin HX MXM4 Pilot tires with an M+S rating, so they are rated for some level of mud and snow service. So far, the little bit we have driven the car it seems to handle ok on the snow and ice, and seems to grip the dry pavement really well.

The Factory 18" tire is the Pirelli P6, not rated so well either but not anything as bad as those Goodyears.
