Volkswagen (B8) 1.4 TSI (150 Hp) DSG ACT Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Continental Premium Contact 6 given 77% (205-55-16-)
Driving on track for 0 miles
It is a tire that appeals to the general public and can satisfy many people, but we cannot consider it completely good. When passing through a puddle, the vehicle becomes unstable. When cornering at high speed, the car leans sideways and moves out of the lane.

Writing about the Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen 3 given 80% (225-50-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 16000 average miles
The Vector 4 season Gen 3 are actually the perfect tyres for your car. I've drove these in most conditions and they've never failed me. The dry braking is probably a touch off the best but as the tyres wear (which they do slowly) that'll become better so you can evolve with the feel of them. In the wet these things come into their own no aquaplaning or braking issues. Even in snow they're terrific, that being said I did have traction light appear when going through really deep snow but the tyre was able to get me through this. Fuel wise I can't really speak about my car takes around 20 liters per week roughly 35 euro. I look after the tyre pressures putting 36 psi in all 4. For me it's the wear factor that makes these good value and the versatility that makes these the perfect all round tyre. You need to be on the correct tyre all the time and you will the Vector gen 3.

Writing about the Continental WinterContact TS 870 P given 98% (235-45-18-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 30000 average miles
I like the Continental WinterContact 870 P tires. I use them year-round, and they perform well overall. Their grip on ice is not as good as Nordic winter tires, but they still handle well when driven cautiously. They can handle southern Finland winters. I've driven 40000 km on them over two and a half years, and there's probably one more year left in them.

Writing about the Maxxis Premitra HP5 given 86% (225-45-17-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 1000 miles
Very pleased with performance vs price for these tyres.
Having previously used premium and scary budget tyres these definitely perform toward the premium end of scale.
Although Taiwanese made these tyres are being used as oem by many manufacturers which confirms my experience.
Would definitely buy again.

Writing about the Petlas Velox Sport PT741 given 67% (235-40-18-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 26000 spirited miles
I have had these for 26k miles on a Mk7 GTI stage 2 tuned. They've been on a track precisely one time and never again. For an everyday spirited driver, they are very good tyres. Quiet, moderately grippy, decent handling. Cons are wet and cool temps. They take quite a while to warm up, and even then, the compound is too hard to Really take hold of a cool road. They Will hydroplane. The wear is like iron in comparison to Sport cup 4s. Still have nearly 5mm to wear indicators. Would recommend as a daily driver, but do not use for track days.

it was really nice, but on the hard snow, hill climbing is not really good, I am not sure about any other tires that can climb, all roads was good but I can park my to my home because it can't climb the %20-30 hill to my home

Writing about the Hankook Winter i cept RS2 given 76% (205-55-16-)
Driving on mostly town for 5000 spirited miles
Considering the price, but also in general: Super good wet grip. It shines better in wet conditions than dry. Winter, ice, snow? No problem. These tires drive in the cold like it's nothing. They are quite noisy though. But the grooves are many and they are deep, they look like off road tires. Superb resistance against aquaplaning. Kinda under steers in the dry though, but braking is still great. Highly recommend, great price. DON'T cheap out on tires. They are worth your life.

Writing about the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 given 76% (225-45-18-)
Driving on mostly country roads for 18500 spirited miles
After the tires are bedded in, they handle really well on the start and round the corners. Just about anything you throw at it and the prices for them aren't too bad for what you get. I have paid far more and had far worse tires the only thing about them is the road noise, I bought these for a mini so it's not really a comfortable car to begin with but for someone putting them on for a comfortable car it's probably be better buying something not as noisy but baring that I can't complain what so ever.

This is for p7 seal inside , the fuel consumption dropped 10mpg and they are noisy compared to the previous Michelin , overall I don't like them wet/dry grip is not as good as before on previous tires and the same price... I will try hankook next time as they have great reviews

Amazing tyres. Great in both wet and dry conditions. Handles well with superb roadfeedback. Also comfortable at the same time. No other words than to say hankook has nailed it with this model.
