Tyre Choice for MK5 GTI Golf

[Dan22]

Thanks! Was just asking to see
If they look somewhat "sporty"

Will be getting Michelin Pilot Sport 3's fitted on Saturday.

I was also told that for the same price I could go for the newer Primacy 3ST.

Are these a similar tyre?

Primacy are a touring type tyre. You'll get more mileage with a slight loss in grip. Possibly a fraction quieter, smoother ride, etc - possibly not.

Well I ended up getting the Pilot Sport 3's and couldn't be happier.

They are quieter than the re001s I had and have so far have felt very safe in the wet. I got 225/45/17 and they are on stick Denver wheels
