Tires Continental or Shinko

Fwiw, replacing the stock Pirellis with Continental CrossContacts has made such a huge difference in ride quality and noise. The OEM Pirellis are garbage.

I’d recommend the continental extreme contacts.. best bang for buck with all seasons imo..

I upgraded to continental dws 06+, for the price I don't think you can beat them. more than double the treadlife of the stock tires, great performance in varying driving conditions.

Continental VikingContact 7 on steel rims.

Best I’ve had in 24 brutal Montreal winters.

Continental Extreme DWS on my wagon, 18". They ride really nice and are way more aggressive than the pirellis that either of my volvos came with.

Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 is a better overall tire, and tested betting in dry and wet traction...

I bought a set of continental LX25s and they've been great so far.

I think the OEM tires are crap so I changed them out about a month after I got the car. Went to Continental Extreme Contact Sport 02's.

Our 2018 came with the 20" Contis and from new, there's been a vibration at highway speeds. Had all four wheels balanced twice and it didn't completely go away, and the second time the dealer tech said one of the tires was slightly out of round.

I just replaced the OEM Conti TXs on my 15 Passat. Those tires were good only in dry weather-they lost traction from a start in wet weather and I actually got stuck in about 2\" of snow on a slight rise by my house.
