2016 Volkswagen Golf Tires

The Volkswagen Golf compact is descended from the VW Rabbit of decades ago, the replacement for the original Beetle. By 2016, the Golf was in its seventh generation, with 3-door, wagon and 5-door body styles; this long-running favorite is available with several drivetrain choices, including an EV model. For model year ‘16, the Golf was available with numerous trim levels, including Sportwagen, TDI S, TDI SE, TDI SEL, S, SE, SEL, Launch Edition, R and Base.

When you shop 2016 Volkswagen Golf tires, you’ll probably be looking for premium all season tires that can deliver long wear, a quiet, forgiving ride, great road manners and handling and year round traction. We’d recommend tires like the Continental ProContact TX (with 55k mile treadwear warranty), Pirelli Cinturato P7 All Season, Continental ContiProContact (60k mile warranty) and Michelin CrossClimate 2 A/W. For more enthusiastic drivers, check out summer and ultra-high-performance tires like the Pirelli Cinturato P7 and Falken Azenis FK510. Just keep in mind that summer and UHP tires use a softer, stickier tread formulation that delivers great grip but will stiffen and lose traction in colder weather; these tires shouldn’t be used when temperatures are below about 45 degrees F.
