Nexen Winguard Sport 2 Winter 235/60R17 106H XL Passenger Tire

Bought these for my 22 VW GTI. I have the Autobahn with the 18" wheels and Bridgestone Potenza S005 Ultra High Performance Summer tires. We got our first snow in Michigan (maybe an inch or two) and I had absolutely zero control with the summer tires. I went to a meeting a few blocks away and wasn't sure I would make it back home. I ordered these Nexen's and it's a NIGHT AND DAY difference! We got an even bigger snowfall recently and I had total control, little or no slipping, I even went through a figure 8 of two roundabouts next to each other and was not able to break the rear tires loose. Very impressed with these Nexen tires - I've never heard of the brand before this - and even more impressed that these tires are far, far quieter than my summer tires. I didn't realize how much road noise I had with the summer tires until I put these Nexens on. It's going to be hard going back to the summer tires next year... may just end up buying a set of Nexen UHP summer tires too!

Tread noise is a little more quiet than other brands I've tried in the past. Definitely can't go wrong if you get these!
