If you're thinking of a grand touring tire, I switched from separate summer/winter performance sets to Vredestein Quatrac Pro 2 years ago and I've been very happy with it. Good performance all year in all weather, still feels connected to the road, wear rate has been good, I'd not hesitate to get them again.
Call me a glazer because they're the only AS tire I use, but DWS06+ are tight.
I absolutely love the DWS 06+ and have bought many sets of them for different cars over the years. Great balance of performance and comfort IMO.
I do recommend the S3 or RS3 bushing if possible. FCP has the corteco version for something like $10 each. It’s a solid rubber version that will last longer and I noticed no increase in NVH on my Mk6 Golf.
I’ve been running VikingContacts for my winter setup and don’t regret them at all. Have been great tires for my MK7 R in the midwest winter, especially with all the snow we got last year.
Bought my 2019 with 17 miles on it. 6 speed, no sunroof.
Have close to 48k on it now, I’ve replaced the tires and the battery. Done my yearly maintenance, and I just had the 50k service done on it. No issues to report. Been extremely reliable, I only drive it 6-8k a year.
Currently waiting for the front rotors to arrive for my mk6 golf. I’m doing brembo 18z calipers with. Audi 19x8 et49 5 double spikes from a S3.
Zimmermann Rotors / IS2000 Pads
Turbo 2 of them oem. Water pump 2 of them oem. Can't say I was happy about being forced to switching to toyota corolla hatch.
I don't know the full story but a local Golf R owner is dealing with DSG issues with his tuned MK8R right now. Dealer thinks it needs a new mechatronics unit or a completely new DSG.
