Tires BRIDGESTONE or OEM Volkswagen

I use Bridgestone Turanza T005s. They harden really fast if you don't take care of it, but they are very good for daily driving and last quite well if you take care of it.

The stones have been a cheater tire for me in a sense that they communicate so well, they handle abuse of inputs, when they give up grip, they’re very gradual and you feel a slide coming. And when you do lose traction, the slide is controllable to get back into grip. There’s a reason they’re at the spear tip of auto cross.

I ran Blizzaks over the last few years.

Bridgestone does everything really well (except snow) and have been the tires that Ive bought repeatedly to cut out the guesswork.

Bridgestone blizzaks are my absolute favorite winter tire, tons of traction!

I've been using blizzak tires for over a decade on my front wheel drive car. Best tire out there IMO.

The Bridgestone Blizzack is an excellent winter tire. We’ve tried a few other brands over the years but this was noticeably better, the best one for ice in my experience.

I've had my Alenza A/S ultras for just under 30k miles and they're effectively done. They were great tires but didn't last anywhere close to the 80k miles. I drove in dry, wet, hot and cold conditions, on good roads and bad and had no issues other than wear.

Quiet Tracks are a garbage tire and never get anywhere close to the mileage warranty. (I’m in Arizona FWIW).

Just FYI, if you are looking for winter capability (snow/ice) the Weatherpeak sucks after 2 seasons of driving (\~ 30,000kms).
