Tires Falken or Goodyear

I'll 2nd this. A lot of people say the sidewalls are too soft for a performance tire, but I think they are plenty responsive and they have nearly endless grip. Wet performance is nothing short of phenomenal too. Another selling point: They are amazingly quiet on the highway. Much quieter than the Dunlop SP Sport 8000's I had on prior.

100% Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3s Only summer tires I buy anymore. I've had them on a D2 A8 and loved them, now they're on my GTI in 235 35 19 still lovin them. They are expensive and wear relatively quickly, but they have superior performance in wet and dry weather.

For the money, you cannot and will not find a better tire than the Falken Azenis RT-615 Had these on my DC2 Integra and used them for summer driving, autocross, HPDE, and they grip better for the money than any tire out there until you hit R compounds.

The Azenis grip way better than any other DOT tire in a near stock 14" size, sidewall stiffness gives quick response, the price is low.

Well, I have a set of 512's but they are not stretched. However, they are the best tire I have owned to date for the price.

I've driven in quite heavy rain with them, and was quite impressed by their performance.

Just thought i would share this...this car has been built to make damn near zero lag and still 400whp, custom control arms and custom coil overs.... i can vouch for its good times

I'm running 255/40-17 RT615s on 17x8 ET35. This is on a "regular" MK4, not an R32. It should not be an issue, the additional grip provided over 225/235 is noticeable.

They're not the best tires. But they're not the worst either. If you hit a pothole, bubbles will form. I have 33,000 miles on my F1's and a bubble has never formed on any of them. They wear relatively fast.

They turn to hockey pucks on cold enough pavement, snow/ice aside. Winter travel on 615's is a death wish.
