I have a MK6 and it handles great on snow with winter tires.
I'm using Achilles Desert Hawk HT2 (on SUV with 32PSI).. tire whistle can only heard after 120KPH. tahimik po sya based on my experience...
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.
Just picked up a set of Achilles Touring A/S sent to a local installer, under $400 all told.
Alles top, solang die richtige Karkasse nicht in Vorschein kommt ist das in Ordnung.
I had a front wheel drive VW Golf GTI with an ECU tune. My front tires lasted about 25k km.
ist noch ok, aber bitte beobachten ob der in n\u00e4chster Zeit eine Beule wirft\ud83d\ude05
Recently bought a used Subaru Crosstrek for my daughter, and CarMax clearly had put new tires on them — specifically, Achilles SportTouring A/S.
I know nothing about this brand or model, so I can’t say what their wet or snow performance might be (or any other parameters, for that matter).
Two things:
1. That is a straight MOT failure because it's dangerous.
2. Your choice is to replace the tyre today, or the wheel **and** the tyre tomorrow.
The gti tired are crap
