Owner reviews for tires

Recommend a switch to "Cooper CS5 Ultra Touring" tires. I have a 2011 Tiguan SE. Replaced my stock 17-inch Continentals after 7,500 miles because they were too noisy and I had 2 flats within a month. Did considerable research on all-weather tires before I settled on the Cooper CS5 . . a new unique tread design and rubber compounds. There was a 100% improvement in my SUV's handling, as well as a soft, quiet ride. Now have 54k on this SUV, and my W-rated tires remain almost like new.

I personally love it and it works very well. Tires are Continental Extreme Contact DWS 06 225/40ZR18

I have Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2s for the winter and Hankook all-seasons for the summer.

being an Audi Technician I would say Conti Pro or Cross Contacts, or Pirelli P7 due to their even wear and descent grip on crappy weather.

Just replaced the OEM Yokohama Avid S34D with the Pirelli P7. Already can tell that they are far superior. 7 db quieter than the OEM on same section of road. I got 20k miles out of the Yokohama and the inside shoulder of all 4 were through the first layer of rubber.

I've been running continental contiprocontact, decently priced and great grip. They do me wonders in the rain.

I'm running Continental PureContacts which are an all season touring tire on the mk4. In rain they grip like a bitch. In icy conditions they grip like a bitch. In loose dirt, decomposed granite etc etc they grip like a bitch. They are phenomenal

I just installed the P7 Cinturato on mine a few days ago (235 45 18). They ride nice and handled the rain well. I had Continental PureContact w/Eco Plus for the last 40k. Those were excellent and still had 4/32 - 5/32.

I have Dunlop Graspic DS-3s on my car in the winter and they perform quite well on dry and wet pavement. They are a bit more slippy and the feel is a bit more muddy

I had Nankangs once. The only negative reviews I read just pointed out the excessive road noise. They drove me absolutely ****ing insane the entire time I had them on my car.
