Tires Vredestein or GENERAL TIRE
I've gotten Generals winter tires before and they were quite good as well and likely a cheaper option.
I’m a winter tire guy. Have been since my MK6 TDI. I’ve never been stuck. With the manual transmission and grabby tires, I just rip through that shit. Vredstein set for me. “Performance” winter set.
I did not end up purchasing Vredestein (I was considering the HT), but it was the only tire I felt was worth the money below $250/tire that I was looking at, which was Continentals, Pirellis, and MIchelins. Agree they rate much better than similarly or cheaper-priced tires in most rankings.
Vredstein Quatrac Pro. Great tire for the money, really quiet, a lot cheaper than the equvalent Michelins.
I know I'll probably get shit for this but, General. I specifically bought the Grabber APT; I've had 0 problems with them, and I would 100% buy them again.\n\nThey were the best-quality tire for what I was willing to spend, since I was also going to a new wheel size and needed different wheels.
I put a set of Vredestein Hypertrac Pro on my daily driver about 5k miles ago.\n\nI am very impressed with the Vreds. They don't slip at all on wet pavement. They are significantly quieter, ride smoother, and were significantly cheaper than the CrossClimates. They handle AMAZING. This is my first \"sport\" tire though, but they really transformed the character of my car.
On my second set of AT General Grabbers, the first set lasted 117,000kms (I’ve had the 04 TD5 since new).
so sick, i had a lifted 2013 hatch with white OZ’s and General Grabber AT’s. most fun i ever had in any of my subarus
Vredestein Quattrac Pros were decent but about 30k miles it looks like. The Vredies I have had a sidewall issue on one. They are well rated bit want more durability.
We’ve had a HORRIBLE experience with Vredestein tires. We put them on my son’s Acura TSX, and 20,000 miles later all four are shot and need to be replaced. The front two are BALD.
