I went with the below, it is a perfect fit.
Bosch Rear AeroTwin Wiper Blade A252H Car Specific 10"
second winter with my mk8 as well over on the east coast. the frequent issue I run into is my front assist being unavailable from snow / ice. Otherwise I find it very smooth in the winter, I almost prefer winter driving as opposed to spring-fall. my car drives better on my 17" winters than my 19" oem wheels.
Zimmerman Drilled Rotors
-EBC Yellowpads
-Bilstein B6 DCC Shocks (replaced at 97K miles)
These are OEM plugs without the VW branding so cheaper, I run these in my stage 1 Mk7 GTi and they are good just need to gap them down quite a bit as out the box they are I think .32? I change them every 15,000km or every 2nd oil change
I use these in my IE stage 1 MK7. I replace them every 20k, zero issues so far. They could probably go another 10k miles, too, I just replace them early to avoid the ground strap issue that seems to be prevalent.
I've run Denso and NGK on E85 for 10k+ miles and numerous track days, with zero issues.
Michelin PA4s are better for dry, wet and a little ice. They are not so good in snow. I had them on my Golf R. Although I never got stuck, they don't inspire confidence in snow.
Total repairs for my MK 7.5 Golf Sportwagen in exactly that same 100K miles Replace front control arms due to failed bushings
The EBC blues are not track pads... Despite how they market them. Once they cool from behind very hot they glaze over...
2019 Golf R. Steering lock error required replacement steering column. Prevented car from turning on requiring dsg being manually placed in neutral and handbrake manual release on callipers. Absolutely fantastic fault that I hope isn't repeated in another couple of years!
