Best Tires for Volkswagen Golf

I just mounted these on my wife’s Alltrack… not the most “performance” forward but quiet, safe, and plenty of grip..

Agree on 18s with x-ice tires. I have found that they have done better with spirited driving when there’s no snow on the ground (compared to blizzaks from years ago) and have served me well on snow covered roads

For posterity, I've been running 235/45/18 Conti DWS06+ w/ no issues on the stock 18x7.5 ET45 Canyons lowered on Golf R front & Golf R Variant rear springs w/ Koni SA dampers for a little over a year: I think it's just about the perfect amount of sidewall myself, but would prefer another half inch of wheel width for flushness & sidewall contour.

I have the blizzaks, going into second and I really like them for my golf.

My 2023 20th AE Golf R came with Hankook tires, and I've been very pleased with them. I'm a fairly aggressive driver and frequent the twisty roads in the Santa Monica Mountains. the Hankooks seem to perform almost as well in the dry, but outshine the PS4s in the wet.

I just switched from the Michelin Pilot Sport AS4s to the Continental DWS06 Plus. I've put about 300 miles on the Continentals. The ride on the Continentals is noticeably smoother and quieter comparted to the Michelins.

Continental Extreme Contacts DWS plus 06 EXCEL in wet performance...It's ones I've probably had over 10 sets of 4 on different VW's over the decades, 17+ VW lots of miles, lots of driving previously. Current 2019 Golf rrrrrr is Conti Extreme DWS, superb stuff.

My R came from the factory with the Bridgestone Potenza S005s. They're decent for daily driving—good grip in the dry and pretty quiet—but they’re not amazing in the wet.

Hilarious because I did for the first time last year with the same tires that came on your areton that came on my golf sportwagen. Absolute horrendous piles of ****. They are worse than the worst set of linglongs. They shouldn't even be approved for road use. switched to a set of Michelin CC2 and they are better in absolutely every metric by 250%. They are better in the snow than the contis were on dry pavement.
