MICHELIN Tires

I have NO issues with wet weather traction with the Michelin PSS on my GTI. Much better than the stock Pirelli all-season tires.

Pros: excellent wet weather traction
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Also, to answer your question regarding the Michelin PSS - I made the switch from the stock all seasons over a year and a half ago...They absolutely transform the car. The stiffer sidewall increases steering feel and responsiveness, and the softer compound not only rides better but also grips like hell in the corners. Wet traction and confidence also increased significantly.

Pros: increased wet traction, better steering feel
Mileage: 23000 km

Other than the heavy feeling at low speed (and a little bit of throttle fixes that), I think that most of the difference that I've experienced so far can be pinned on tires rather than the rack itself - feedback of the 14" Cooper H rated tires are slow and sloppy when compared to the BFG summer tires on our other car. I do like the faster ratio of the manual rack though, and I can feel the tug of the tires in rutted suburban streets, so feedback is good, if a little muted through the tires.

Pros: faster ratio, good feedback
Cons: heavy feeling at low speed

I actually had a few sets of the Gen 1 Exit 555 Nittos and felt they were an extremely underated tire. Awesome grip, even when cold, wore like iron, and handled wet conditions like it was child's play.

Pros: awesome grip, wore like iron

NITTO Tires

I'm running Nitto NT450s, 205/40/16 on an 8.5" wheel, but they're about bald. So I've ordered a set of Neo-Gens in the same size, they should be here before the weekend. Jason from 4everkustomz in Reamstown is mounting them.

Cons: bald
