Volkswagen Golf Mk7.5 Alltrack 2.0TDI Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Yokohama IceGUARD Stud iG55 given 82% (215-55-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 1900 spirited miles
The tyres are great for driving through slush, ice, snow. Even greater with 4x4. No studs lost over 3000km driven/1st season with city driving over tram tracks.

On dry road you can definitely feel that the stopping distance is longer. Also due to the soft compound, the tyre moves/tilts quite a lot if you do sporty driving on country roads with lot of turns, but eventually you get used to this.

Writing about the Continental UltraContact UC7 given 75% (225-45-18-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 1000 spirited miles
These replaced a set of Goodyear Assurance Comforttred after 1000 kms which were hard as a rock and did not work comfort wise at all. Oxymoron name being called Comforttred. Quiet and handled better than the UC7 but this was due to less sidewall flex.
The UC7 ride better with more sidewall flex but this reduces the handling (almost too much). Though, the tyre steers OK but with bit less communication and are as quiet as the Goodyear's.
The reason i went to the Goodyear & Continental was price. I have used Pirelli Cinturato P7 & Michelin Pilot Sport 4 on a diesel Golf Hatch and both had better handling and bit more grip but too expensive for me atm. Was not impressed with the turn in of the PS4. The UC7 is about the same. Maybe a bit better. The P7 responded like a go-cart.
So i am stuck with the UC7 till they wear out. I will experiment with tyre pressures. Lower for town driving and bit more for country & corners.
