Tires GT Radial or OEM Volkswagen

The GT Radial SX2 is 200tw and there are a few super cheap sizes out there. I like them enough that this is my second set.

been a great tire, ill buy them in the future, ride well, just a tiny bit noisy.

I decided to go with [GT Radial SX2](https://www.gtradial-us.com/sport/champiro-sx2/) tires, these are low grip tires that I want to use daily plus track duty. I choose these because they are better for learning and don't hide mistakes, provide great feedback, last long, handle track heat.

I am currently using GT Radial (budget Indonesian brand) all terrain for our SUV and it performs a lot better off-road for me than the Yokohama Geolandar I replaced it with.

had so much fun today! no videos unfortunately but first in class and almost upset an STH guy, lol the car did great on the 240tw, 41psi. sport mode with esc fully off. lots of grip even though i was overdriving a bit.

I'm running 205 50 17 on oem vw Gavia 17x6.5 et 46 for Winter and 225 45 17 on oem vw Valencia 17x7.5 et 51 for Summer. These are the recommended oem sizes.

I had very good luck with some Walmart bought tires. I put about 53,000 miles in them before I sold the truck and they handled all types of weather and road conditions. Highway, snow covered roads, occasional dirt roads and wet and never had an issue with them.

Mine came with 19” Montevideo which have been turned into dedicated winter setup, I upgraded to 20’s. The ride isn’t horrible tbh but it is worse, but you will for ever have that feeling of butthole pucker up lol every time you slightly even see a pothole.

The socal 86 cup is sponsored by them, so they've all I've ever used. They're more like 260tw. But I got 245 r40 17 for like $80 each. They're not the best, but they're the best for the money.

I drive a 05 wrx and have had both Blizzak WS80 and GT Radial Ice Pro 3 on it. I only got the GT Radials because I was in grad school and they were cheap. They get the job done, but are definitely not as good as blizzies. Obviously haven't done any scientific tests, but the steering feel is noticeably worse on the radials, stopping distance is much longer, acceleration worse. Frequently notice them understeering significantly on both wet and snowy roads.
