I use Semperit Speed Grip 3 205/45 R17 on my MK8 and i must say im quite suprised how good they work for the price. The only downside is that they are pretty loud while driving
Best Tires for Volkswagen Golf
I personally use 205/50r16 Firestone Winterforce 2's on my MK7 for Iowa Winters, it's a great tire and I've had little issues with it.
New old stock Potenza Race available for $562 per set after rebate: https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Bridgestone&tireModel=Potenza+Race&partnum=335YR9PRXLOS&vehicleSearch=false&fromCompare1=yes
I got them in 225/45R17 for my Golf wagon and actually received 2023 dated tires even though they were advertised as 2022.
New tires: Continental ExtremeContact Sport 02 - These have a slightly higher score and are cheaper than the Pilot Sport 4S so I thought I'd give them a try.
Good year weather ready tires are very good. I would get them for my winter setup if they came in 15's and my buddy just put them on his golf r as his winter setup.
I’ve been running them on my Golf R as my dedicated winter tires (winspike 2 on dedicated winter wheels) and they have been incredible.
Only change I have made is putting on Michelin Pilot 4 all weather tires 235/40/19s on the stock wheels. A little more sidewall for a better ride and no problem with rubbing. My only gripe is the turbo lag but once it kicks in it does just fine.
I just had the following installed on my mk3.5 cabrio (a Golf III for all intents and purposes) two months ago: 195/60R14 Uniroyal Tiger Paw Touring They have been good so far, no complaints on my end and they were available at my local tire shop for install.
I’ve seen mixed reviews of them. With some saying they aren’t great in the wet(acceptable but lacking when compared to others), other saying they wear really quickly.
Gonna say running north of 100mph on mismatched budget sub-brand bridgestones is adding a margin of error where you cant really afford one.
