Kumho tires are the highest rated bang for the buck tire on the market. I will never buy another brand of tire.
I replaced the Yokos with 215/65R-16 Yokohama AVID Ascend tires. No complaints with them. It has a very high treadwear, which we need because the Tig is our workhorse vehicle.
On my 2010 S, I quickly replaced the stock Scorpions with Yokohamas in 225/65-16 and it worked great. We have rough roads here, and it really helped.
Kumho is a good brand, but there are many others. Don't skimp on your tires, many non-car people simply buy the cheapest, long-lasting tires they can find and only to discover they sold off their safety in the process.
The Yokohama yk580 we have on my wife's EX are doing really well so far, but we only have a few thousand miles on them. Much quieter than the stock tires, good grip, and they are rated to last quite a while (45k supposedly, but in a GTI would be less).
I bought a set of Kumho Ecsta PA31 HP for my GTI and they are probably the best all around all-season tire I've purchased! Great prices too. They are at about 3000 miles now and they are SO quiet, great in the rain, not bad cornering.
Some high performance all seasons: Yokohama Avid Envigor I have had these on 3 of my cars 2002 Civic Si, 2008 VW Jetta, and my 280Z. I get good mileage out of them too.
I'm using Yokohama advan s.4s. They're an ultra high performance all season tire and I really enjoy them so far. I've put about 1000 miles on them.
I am currently running some Yokohama Avid H4s, I have not been very impressed with them dry road handleing is nice however, snow and water is another story. I only got close to 35k out of these tires and I am looking for something that handles the same if not better and will most importantly give me better tread wear.
i bought 2 new tires Kumho KH16 on tirerack.com... i drove the car few miles and i noticed that the car was pulling slightly to the left in city ...i drove on the highway ..same thing the car was pulling left ...if i let the steering wheel straight, the car was changing of lane.... yesterday i switched my 2 front tires side to side ...and now THE CAR IS PULLING RIGHT !!!!
