Best Tires for the Volkswagen Passat CC

Fitted on Passat cc tsi 211 manual, sport chassis, dcc suspension: Purchased with Michelin crossclimate, quickly replaced because knobby tires produced very significant rolling noise, even though they were 70% worn.
I fitted the Yokohama Advan Fleva V701 tires because they were very well rated in terms of external noise (67).
They have 75,000 km on them today! They are not quite at the end of their life, which I estimate at 85,000 km!
I'm changing them because I haven't swapped them back and forth a sufficient number of times.
The rear tires have developed notches on the inside; this is a common defect in CCs, due to the rear axle alignment (original) and the very particular braking distribution system (contact on all 4 wheels).
So I'll put the same ones back on, but I'll swap them at each oil change, which is every 10,000 km.
Usage: 50% motorway, 40% departmental road, 10% city.
Normal to spirited driving on small roads...
The most impressive thing is that they maintained their grip throughout their entire life, even on wet roads.
They never surprised me, the drift came very gradually.
Now aquaplaning on the front at over 110 km/h with very heavy rain, I am at the maximum wear indicators on the front, the rear axle does not move because it is a little less worn.

initially i was very pleased, normal road noise, and quite acceptable all round behavior. Fitted on a FWD Passat CC with 250bhp, driven in the quite hot Mediterranean environment (last few years are with quite hot summer and quite moderate winters). In highway you instantly felt that they are not like summer tires, but still they have been quite ok. Road noise at quite acceptable levels (not a lot worse to my previous summer Dunlops). Dry handling and braking acceptable but not at par the summer tires, and also the same for wet conditions, but all these were expected. In general, the impressions were on the quite positive side, until these couple of months... Tires fitted exactly 3 years ago and i now experience big chunks of the rubber coming off the front tires! The tread depth is not bad at all with minimal wear on the 10000 miles i have been driving them, but it is crazy that i see big pieces of rubber coming off!!! Waiting for a new Pirelli Cinturato SF3 set to arrive next week to change them, and see how this goes.

After Goodyear F1 Asymmetric 2 I didn't expect that the kleber dynaxer uhp xl would work so well. Excellent tire in any conditions!

Behavior is prediable. Grip in both dry and wet are good, after approx 500 KM.The most strange thing is I feel heavy aquaplaning at the first brand-new 500 KM but gone after. Maybe this tire need certain mileage to warm itself up? If you take it as UHP tire, wear is good actually. I drove this tire for 50,000 KM and should no problem to 60K, beside the small cracking. Strong feedback which is good. At the same time, noice is really unacceptable after 20,000 driving, at least for my ear. I have to replce it even there are 2 mm left to the worn. Considering the price, you should replace it every 20,000... this will keep you in the best performance. LOL. If you don't care about noice, comfort but perfromance, I suggest you take it. If you are looking for a more balance tire as me, I may not recommend this tire.

It should be advertised as a Race track tire, I purchased these tires on stability ratings however they wore out in less than 7,000km while driving around town and on the freeway. They were never pushed hard Tire longevity is about as bad as a tire can get. They are not value for money.

My 2009 VW Passat Komfort came with Yokohama AVID Ascend 235 /45 R17 97V XL BSW cost $132 each they were very load, wore BADLY (after 20,000 miles) but handled well fair or foul weather. I finally replaced them with the Nankang Noble NS-20s for $71 each with lifetime road hazard protection and super fast free shipping ($284 Total) ONLINE from James Drank (800) 589-6789 Ext.51866 Discount Tires Direct. I had them mounted and I could not believe how quiet and how well they handled. THESE ARE FANTASTIC TIRES!!!!!! I am pleased.

The Vredestein Ultrac Sessantas were already fitted to the car when I purchased it in September 2014 so unable to say how many miles they had done up to then. I changed the front two in July of 2015 before driving to Europe and just changed the two on the rear this month (February 2016) which had done at least 28000 miles which is what I have driven since buying the car so they have done more than that and they were still within the legal limit. I have been buying these tires from Camskill on line, who have them at a great price, and I will continue to do so until stock runs out as I believe they are a discontinued model. I cannot fault these tires (although to me they seem a bit noisy), I've driven them in all seasons in all weather without any problems. When in Germany last year I drove the car in excess of 100 mph for several hours and the car handled well so for me these tires are very good.

Front two tires have just reached the limit after a year (approx 13,000 miles), rears still have about 5mm left.
Pros:
Grip in the dry is excellent with the grip in the wet not far behind.
Feedback is also good and lets you really feel when you are approaching the limit (although sport springs were put into the car at the same time as the tires went on which will have improved road feedback).
Cons:
Fronts did wear out rather quick although I did expect this considering the levels of grip on offer.
Comfort was somewhat lacking, this being a low profile tire I really did feel every bump, cats eye etc.. However the worst part was the road noise which was horrendous on rough surfaces or rumble strips although it was bearable on the motorway or at low speeds through the town.
Won't be replacing the front tires with these this time, going to try something different but could be an option for the rears again.

A good tire for overall moderate performance. Noisy when it wears down. Not as much feel as I'd like. Worn out by just under 40,000kms which is fair
