Tires Hankook or DUNLOP

This is the second driving season I've had them on my car and I don't have any complaints Great tire for the money...

i personally like the w404 tires....cheap and just as good, super nice on snow and ice....

based on my own prior experience.. skinnier tires are better in snow/slush.... so I bought a set of 205 50 17s myself... Dunlop Winter M2s for me!

I am on my second set of SP5000's also on my Passat. They are a great UHP all-season tire. The big knock on them is quick wear, even with a 340 treadwear rating.

The SP5000s were the tires I had on my MkII when I sold it. They were +2 and the best tire that I ran on that car in 13 years.

had fm901 before, comparing to what i have now, i will have to say, Potenza G009 is a better tire.

I've cut consistant 2.1s with Dunlop SP8000s with 17psi in them. Pretty damned good for a street tire and aired up properly, they corner unlike anything else I've every used.

I'll be putting on my Dunlop Winter Sport M2's in the next few weeks for the 3rd snow season and would echo INDIGO's points. I've been slightly disappointed on the snow performance as I've found quite a bit of understeer with these tires in snow.

I hated the Dunlop's that were OEM which is what they have. They never balanced and wore out in 12k.

I just put my winter tires on. Dunlop wintersport M3. I have used these for 2 winters already, they have a decent amount of tread left. Maybe 20,000 miles total use on the tires already. 90% highway. I notice that the car now rides much more harsh than it does on the summer tires. It also makes a lot of noise. Almost like a wheel bearing or something. Way more noise than I remember from last winter!
