Volkswagen T Roc Tires

3rd car in family with these fitted and all generally performing well and great for North East of Scotland weather across the year. The sizes fitted on a Mini Cooper and BMW 2 series are much better than previous tires (got rid of the run flats), these latest ones are on a T-Roc and overall are doing the job but do seem to be a bit nosier then on the other two cars which may be the suspension settings, a slight improvement on noise though over previous Hankook Summer performance tires that were fairly well worn.

Great tire. For price, the best!

Hey ALL, When I bought my VW T-ROC, it came with S001, the tire is fine when you are at a lower speed.

However, when you are on the highway, I mean the noise that tires make will drive you crazy.

Worst tire ever, not safe in bad conditions and the tires crack all the way around which make any puncture repair impossible. Can’t understand why this tire cracking is not a bigger issue and drivers compensated. And why vw and Audi use them?

well i got my car from a no i garage and the front tires is firelli the back is the most dangerss tire,i have driven/roadx rx motion/ i went back to garage and they syd the tires are legal /they shood bee band i am a x motorcycle,s[ and if i had not been a exserinsd driver i would have had a big axxisident]//they shoud not bee legel they are for dry road,s]not for wett or //bonnie scottland// bobby gee

After a lot of (late night) research, I finally chose to replace the OEM Bridgestone Potenza S001 on my almost new car, after only 11,000 Kms ( 7,300 miles.) For me, as a regular daily driver, the Bridgestones were simply too hard, and performance orientated. And, with a profile ratio of 40, impossibly noisy. The Michelins are simply far more compatible with this medium powered car (only 190 bhp,) which is simply not a Sports car, yet VW seem to be fitting anything that they can get their hands on with a 93Y rating - except Michelins. Nevertheless the Michelins are very sporting, especially if you pump them up to beyond the normal VW stated pressures. It is hard to imagine how you could realistically exploit the limits of these Michelins in a 4 wheel-drive T-Roc on the road in the dry. As far as comfort is concerned, they are streets ahead of the Bridgestones, at the same pressure. Disappointingly the PS4’s are only a bit quieter, but we are talking about tires with an aspect ratio of 40 on a small car. Always specify smaller wheels! It’s too early to predict how long they will last, especially with my moderate driving style. Price wise, here in Spain, they are no more expensive than their immediate competitors, not least of all due to local Michelin manufacturing plants. These are probably the best tires for my car right now, even if it had a lot more power.

Have get these tires with my new TROC, it was fitted on VW factory, well, it is comfortable, very quiet, strong, was waiting a little bit more from wet drip, but it is not sport car or hot hatch, so grip is enough in all the disciplines! Can recommend for sure!

These tires came with a new 4WD car. We have done 10,000 miles and the fronts are down to 4mm and the rears to 4.5mm, so we are not going to get much more than another 3,000 miles out of them. They handle fine in both wet and dry. Most of our mileage is on motorways/A roads so can't give much information about potholes and unmade roads. But I am very unimpressed by the wear rate and will not buy these tires again.
