Tires MICHELIN or Goodyear

While the two tires are very good, the X-ice3 is better at handling wet traction.

For my son's new 2015 Jetta SE, he ordered the following from Tirerack for this winter, and he is loving them: 4 x 195/65R15 MICHELIN X-ICE XI3

My winter set. 18x8 Niche Targa et42, Michelin Pilot Alpin 225/40/18

18x8 Neuspeed RSe52 with Michelin AS3's in 235/40 ZR18 on stock suspension. I'm debating VWR springs, but don't want to ruin the DCC.

I put on a set of Eagle Sport all-seasons about 10K miles ago and I like them. They grip well and road noise has been non-existent. But they do maintain their grip on wet roads.

I had Eagle F1s on my RSX after having a set of Nitto summer tires. I have to say, I loved them. Grippy, and handled minor inclimate weather way better than the Nittos.

I have the Michelin Premiers and they're a great tire. I have 70+ k miles on mine with 5mm tread left. They're excellent in rain (even now) and snow.

I'd definitely recommend paying the little extra for the Michelins.

Recently changed several factors and noticed a rather significant drop in mpgs.... 1) tune - brought the car to stage 1+ with vwr intake 2) winter blend fuel 3) new Michelin a/s 3 tires I used to have the trip computer averaging 28ish, and now I'm seeing about 23 for highway use at 80mph

I have Michelin ltx tires now, can't say I'm not a bit disappointed, in snow they SUCK brand new they are worse then my worn BFG 's ..other then that pretty major problem they ride nice and are quiet.
