Tires IRONMAN or OEM Volkswagen

Ive had ironmans and they were good. Ive had sailuns that were good. Right now i have a car that has 5 yr old Solar brand tires and ive put about 80000mi on.

I have since tuned my GTI and installed summer tires, it has only further cemented my decision. Now the car pulls harder but you still have to work with the car to put the power to ground.

Alot of people are snobs and your bound to have a bad batch out of the millions of tires sold yearly but modern tires still need to pass DOT certs so there's some form of quality control. Ironman make a terrific set of mud tires and all season sport tires for the price even though they don't last that long.

Ironman is a great budget tire

While you’re learning get Ironmans lol it’s like $70-80 per tire brand new and will hold up way longer than $30-40 used tires

Ironman all country M/T are actually really solid!

Another vote for Ironmans. Used to run them on my foxbody until I wanted more grip

I know that I went through my first set of rears rather quickly on my VW ID3.

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.

I too just replaced half worn ironman tires with dws's on a car I just bought. Wet grip on the ironman was some of the worst I'd ever experienced on a tire with tread still on it.
