Tires Firestone or Vredestein
I went with Firestone destination at/2 in 235/65 r17. They are great and light weight! Only 4lbs more than stock tires.
I have a set of Firestone Destination All terrains tires and i love them.
I used to commute from Ithaca to Syracuse daily in a mk5 GLI. I had studded Firestone Winterforces on steel wheels. That car was an absolute beast in the snow and regularly outperformed 4x4’s.
The only "all season" I've ever used and thought was good was the Vredestein Quatrac Pros, had those on a 2016 Jetta sport and even guy that installed them asked if they were snow tires. But those tires kicked ass, and were 3 peak rated
Since your new one is a Vredestein Quatrac Pro+, I’d pick up another Quatrac Pro+ for the rear so both sides wear evenly and you avoid noise/vibration.
I put these on a couple weeks ago and was amazed this weekend just how well they handle in the snow and the cold. They felt a little weird for the first couple days after getting them put on, but now I never expected a rwd sports car to handle so well in the snow. Love them!
Very happy I have the vredesteins a try because I was super happy with them.
Vredestein, been using them on my Inty for a year now, good grip. You just need to be careful as they are prone to puncture easily due to them being soft compound.
I have these on my RAM 1500 and they spin on wet pavement even with care on the throttle.
I bought these tires 18,000 miles ago. My car is a Toyota Camry. And frankly, it was smoother before these tires. Definitely avoid these tires.
