Tires Nexen or WEST LAKE

I've had 10yrs experience with the sa07 and I love them. On windy roads they can wear out fast but that just means they are a softer compound and offer more grip then a hardwearing linglong

I have the Nexens on mine and they’ve been fine through 16k miles.

I loved the sur4g from nexxen. I would do a lil burnout when I left my drive way. Warm enough.

Drove our car with Nexens on and it's a surprisingly quiet tire vs the Bridgestones it had on previously.

Update: got the Nexens and so far notice 0 road noise on highway or in town, both absolutely quiet.

The Nexens without a second thought... Those N'Fera SU1 tires are excellent tires and Nexen has arguably the best warranty in the tire industry.

I’ve owned a lot of VWs, and this is the only one that has not consumed any oil from the very beginning. I’ve actually joked that I’m concerned about that. I kept my previous 2016 GTI until I bought this car last year - 212K miles and it consumed about a quart and a half between 5K interval changes, ever since new. In fact all of my VWs have consumed something since new and that amount never really changed, so I do believe it is most likely build tolerances and luck of the draw. That said, I wouldn’t hesitate to drive a car that consumed a reasonable amount these days and I consider that normal. Build quality has been better than I expected for a car in this price range. Comfort is very good, but it’s not what I would call sporty in any way (coming from a GTI). some people complain about the lag on acceleration but I believe that is the transmission programming and there are ways you can drive it that minimize that. I think the Nexen tires are decent enough and they seem to wearing well.

The Westlakes are an Off Brand, they are cheap and you get what you pay for, but they are decent have sold lots of these with no issues.

I had some nexens on a passat years ago, absolute trash. Traction was so bad I could spin them with the crappy 5 cyl on dry pavement

I finally got sick of them on my 2019 at about 21k miles with the rainy winter we had in Southern California and slipping all over the place.
