Great tire for the price, a good value. I've been running this tire on a 2000 & 2007 Jetta GLI for several years. I recommend using this tire!

I'll never buy these tires again. They're expensive and they don't last at all. The ride is really rough, you can fell it when changing lane on the freeway.
