I actually also like the NT-05 for track days primarily for the price. They are about as good in the dry as the RE-11's, better than the PSS but tend to get a bit noisy on the highway at certain speeds once they start to wear down.

Pros: good in the dry
Cons: noisy when worn
Vehicle: Audi TT

NITTO Tires

While 255/35/19 still worked just fine, I feel that 245/35/19 is the best set up on a 19x8.5 rims. the outer lip of the tires will protect the rims, as the 245 tires will not be stretched on 8.5 rims.

Pros: protect the rims
Vehicle: Audi S3

This was my second year on the Gislaved Nord Frost 5. I've had Blizzaks in the past and have used X-Ice, Nokian Hakepellita R, and Toyo (can't remember the model). The Gislaved is by far the best tire. The deep snow grip is by far the best of the bunch, the ice grip is second only to the X-Ice (which had the worst snow traction). Road noise is very low as well.

Pros: deep snow grip, low noise
Cons: ice grip second best

Nordfrost 5 (no studs) for the Tig (4motion), Marangoni 4ice on the Passat. I like the Nordfrosts better (had the Nordfrost 3 on the Jetta and loved them there too).

Pros: liked the Nordfrosts better

I'm running Nitto NT450s, 205/40/16 on an 8.5" wheel, but they're about bald. So I've ordered a set of Neo-Gens in the same size, they should be here before the weekend. Jason from 4everkustomz in Reamstown is mounting them.

Cons: bald
