Tires Shinko or OEM Volkswagen

OEM Volkswagen Tires

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.

Pros: car pulls harder
Cons: work with the car
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I avoided the 805 big blocks because of typically rough and noisy street use. Figured they’d be great offroad. Tried some 705s and they were great street tires but really loose and washy offroad. I’m on the 700s now and I’m really liking them. Closest thing to a 50/50 tire I’ve ever had.

Pros: great street tires
Cons: loose and washy offroad

I put on Shinko Ravens and they are more confidence inspiring than the Michelin Pilot 3s I was using.

Pros: confidence inspiring

Might I suggest some Shinko’s. I got 16k out of the back tire I got for my Goldwing, 12k+ of those were overloaded doing 80-90 across the country and through the Rockies.

Pros: high mileage, impressed
Cons: overloaded
Mileage: 16000 km

Pros: stickiest compound, great wheelies
Cons: none

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.

Pros: 20's look better
Cons: ride isn't horrible
Vehicle: Volkswagen

As a person who sells motorcycle parts for a living and currently has Shinkos on his bike for cost effective reasons. I suggest to NEVER get Shikos.

Pros: cost effective
Cons: never get Shikos
