Had a set on a Mk7 Golf GTI for a short period of time and can categorically say they are one of the worst tires I've ever driven on. Dry grip is acceptable but wet grip is an absolute joke. Road noise is noticeable and road feedback is dull. Switched to a set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4S and they immediately transformed the car. If you actually care about driving and the safety of your vehicle, I wouldn't recommend cheaping out on a set of Triangles.

These tires are nasty. Poor in the dry and borderline dangerous in the wet. Noisey, provide minimal feedback and when they slide there is next to no warning or progression. They came on a new Golf Mk7 GTI and then a MK8 GTI. Removed from both cars once the engines were bedded in (circa 1,000 miles) and replaced with Pilot Sport tires instead. Why VW fit this garbage on a ‘sporty’ car I have no idea. Presumably they get a good deal on a 12 year old design from Bridgestone.

Driving on a combination of roads for 30000 spirited miles
Probably one of the best tires you can buy if you need some amount of snow and cold weather ability but still want excellent sporty performance. The dry/wet performance is about 80% of what you'd get with a summer tire, but you can run it in the shoulder seasons or in light winter weather. My main complaints are that the steering response isn't as good as the previous AS3+. The right quality is pretty average for an all season tire, but its OK. All around great options.

Writing about the Pirelli CINTURATO P1 given 43% (225-40-18-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 4000 spirited miles
Used to have potenzas s001 which were not the best tires, but enough for my driving style.. when i bought these i knew they were going to lack the dynamic driving, but i never thought they would put the car all over the place on highway speed or even at slow speed. No grip at all on wet surface, only thing good is wear tread. Changed to PS5 to recover the usability of my GTI.

Driving on a combination of roads for 500 spirited miles
Having used potenza's s001 and pirelli cinturato p1 plus, i have to say these are by far the best in every aspect. The most shocking difference apart from dry and wet grip is the comfort of the ride. I can drive around with 38/40 psi without having to pay a visit to the dentist. The handling may not be as dynamic as the best of best tires, but its way more than what the other two offered. After having used pirellis for 5k kms i can say i have recovered the dynamic handling of a GTI.

Dry grip is exceptional for an all season tire, while wet grip still exceeds my expectations. Hydroplaning has been virtually nonexistent since this tire has been fitted. Even more surprising are the wear characteristics. I've done a few days of light tracking on these tires and it still looks as if I could get another 20,000 miles out of them. While I have not yet experienced their capabilities in the winter, given their superior performance across the board when compared against the tires I had previously, I maintain a high level of confidence.

Writing about the Hankook Ventus S1 evo 3 given 80% (235-35-19-)
Driving on mostly town for 1000 spirited miles
Bought these tires based on this websites reviews and videos on Youtube. Fitted approx 1,000km ago to my Mk7 Golf GTI Performance to replace the original Dunlop Sport Maxx tires which were past their used by date. Tires are too new to comment on wear and wet weather (has only rained once when I have been driving) but in the dry I am very happy with the grip and feedback from these tires. The tires are quiet and grippy, and with a treadwear of 320 they should give a good life/grip balance. They also have an attractive sidewall and tread pattern.

These tires were already on my MK7 Golf GTI which has around 320bhp thanks to a few upgrades, but these tires are not capable of handling the increased power. Straight-line acceleration in any gear up to 3rd and sometimes even 4th causes the traction control light to come on and taking dry corners I would usually do at 60mph in my much slower Scirocco causes a lot of squeal on these tires at a tame 50mph in the Golf. These tires are also incredibly loud. Considering my Scirocco before (workhorse) had a mix of budget tires on it including some Avons which cracked within 12 months of having them and I thought they were noisy, I was looking forward to a quieter, more luxurious drive on these premium tires in the Golf, but unfortunately I've been quite disappointed. The tires are just too hard for fast road use, and are not a good solution for putting the power down on a mapped GTI, though I'm sure as a result the mileage would be great. Unfortunately I'm not getting on with them so will be changing to something grippier when I change wheels in the next few weeks.

Original equipment but in my view a poor choice. Some of the poorest wet weather performance I have experienced in 47 years of driving
