Tires Pirelli or Kumho

I did just put these tires on my wife's 2016 jetta sport. They have 3k miles on them already in the past month and they are great. Quiet on the highway (though when you hit expansion joints it's kinda loud) ride good and handling/traction for wet, dry and the little bit of snow we got was pretty impressive too for an all season tire.

Go with the Kumhos from Tire Rack. I had really good experience with them

Well i went from 18s to 17s last winter... Originally i bought a set of Pirelli Sottozero3 225/40/18 on 18x7.5 wheels (might have been x8 i cant remember). The traction in cold was unreal and amazing, the price was not.

I had Pirelli p6000 for my 1st gen Clio 1.8, I loved them, I knew about the fact they last not as long, but I loved having so much grip.

Not because of F1, but when I bought full winter rims/tires I had Scorpion Ice & Snow for my X5M. They worked very well actually, and with the combination of the vehicle and those tires I never had any issues in the snow

I've used Sumitomo and Kumhos performance summer tires with success - although the Kumho PA31's I put on the Fit have worn super fast and are now quite loud.

I have a set, they are pretty good. for a 320 TW tire, the grip is awesome, and should last a lot longer than the OEM Pirellis. These tires are much better at the track (turning) not so much at the quarter.

Bought 2012 TDI sport with 18" wheels new at dealer 2 months ago. Vehicle sat on dealer lot for 5 months or so. Test drove vehicle, steering wheel shook enough to see it at any speed over 50 mph. THIS was probably from flat spots on tires from sitting, we bought vehicle and dealer agreed to put new tires on and replaced with exact same Pirelli's that vehicle was equipped with.

Yeah, I did actually try a set of P-Zeros on my Fiesta Zetec S. They were shockingly bad in damp conditions and, ironically, wore out very quickly. Wouldn't recommend.

I tried kumhos on my gti and x3. Not happy with them. After some wear they get really loud and feel un balanced
