Volkswagen Tiguan Tires

There’s also a performance-oriented R version of the Tiguan, with a 316 hp 2.0L 4-cylinder engine and a sophisticated AWD system that can portion out torque between the axles and even between wheels on the same axle.In addition, all but base trim levels of the Tiguan now come standard with VW’s “IQ Drive” driver assistance package, which includes automatic braking, blind spot alerts, adaptive cruise control, travel assist, forward-collision alert and lane keep assist. The 2020 Tiguan was available with S, SE, SEL and SEL Premium trim levels, along with 4Motion and R-Line packages.

We rounded up some great tire options for you to consider for your Volkswagen Tiguan, including performance-oriented all-season and Grand Touring tires, all-weather tires and winter tires. Let’s go in for a closer look:

1. Continental CrossContact LX25 - Best all-season tire

First out of the gate we have the Continental CrossContact LX25, a premium all-season tire that’s designed for crossovers and SUVs. If you’re familiar with products from Continental, you probably know what to expect with this tire: year-round traction, responsive handling, generous tread life, a quiet and forgiving ride, plus excellent feedback and road manners. Indeed, the Continental CrossContact LX25 does check all those boxes. Continental starts out with two steel belts over a polyester casing, capped by a spiral wound polyamide layer for excellent high-speed stability and ride comfort. Continental’s advanced tread compound with Silane+ and Tg-OF is designed for long, even wear and low rolling resistance, helping you save on your fuel bills over the life of the tire. Four circumferential grooves divert water away from the tire’s contact patch to resist hydroplaning on wet pavement, with a symmetric all-season tread pattern that’s loaded with lateral grooves, a dense pattern of sipes, and Traction Grooves that actually pick up and retain snow for enhanced snow-to-snow traction. A cushioned Comfort Ride Technology subtread layer helps isolate vibrations and bumps for a new-car ride, and the CrossContact LX25 is available with an optional outlined white letter sidewall that looks great on all kinds of vehicles. Continental stands behind the CrossContact LX25 with a 65,000 or 70,000 manufacturer’s tread life warranty (depending on size).

2. Pirelli Scorpion WeatherActive - Best all-weather tire

The Scorpion WeatherActive from Pirelli is a new addition to their product lineup, and is actually part of an emerging category of tires: the All-Weather Tire. All-weather tires are designed to go above and beyond the performance of all-season tires, without sacrificing tread life, ride quality, road manners, noise level, and handling/cornering/braking performance. Indeed, the Scorpion WeatherActive has the tire industry’s Three Peak Mountain Snowflake certification for severe winter service. The Scorpion WeatherActive’s directional tread pattern includes a 3-rib design that’s optimized for stiffness, angled grooves for optimal evacuation of water and slush in bad weather, a zigzag central groove, and a tread pitch that’s randomized and computer tuned for low road noise. The Scorpion WeatherActive’s advanced tread compound is engineered to stay flexible and deliver good traction in subfreezing weather, while still delivering long, even treadwear. Pirelli backs the Scorpion WeatherActive with a 60,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty.

3. Cooper Endeavor Plus - Great all-season tire

Cooper built on the success of the Endeavor H/T for the Endeavor Plus, with a silica-enriched rubber formulation that’s engineered for long wear and dependable traction on wet pavement. The Endeavor Plus is designed with a modern all-season tread pattern with wide circumferential and angled lateral grooves to disperse standing water and resist hydroplaning. A WearSquare indicator alerts drivers to excessive treadwear, and an added layer of reinforced material boosts this tire’s durability as well as ride quality. The Cooper Endeavor Plus is a great value in an all-season tire for crossovers and SUVs, and is backed by a 65,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty.

4. Sumitomo HTR Enhance LX2 - Good all-season tire

Now we come to the HTR Enhance LX2 from Sumitomo, an all-season tire that’s designed for all-season traction and performance with the long wear, ride comfort, and low noise you expect from a Grand Touring tire. The HTR Enhance LX2 is designed with outside shoulder blocks that are tuned for better cornering stability and low noise, “bending sipes” in the center rib that deliver great wet-weather traction as well as steering response, and chamfered lateral and circumferential grooves for dependable winter or wet-weather traction. Internally, the HTR Enhance LX2 features two steel belts and a nylon cap ply with a reinforced bead apex that delivers good rigidity for cornering and handling response. The HTR Enhance LX2 is protected by an up to a 90,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty, depending on the tire’s size and speed rating.
