Tyres for MK2 TT Tdi

[jamesbeaumont]

I'm replacing the tyres on my TT. It has the oem Continentals on it just now and I'm looking at other options. I'm in Scotland and travel to the Highlands in the winter most weekends. I don't really want to go to the fuss of fitting winter tyres so thought perhaps there is a summer tyre that will handle snowy conditions better than the Conti?
I really wanted to give the Vredestein Ultrac Vortis a go but they'll probably be worse. Then only tyre I can think of that may be slightly more capable in the Rainsport 3. Any opinions on this?

I had Contis on my TT, they were generally good but terrible in the snow. I've got Goodyear Eagle F1s on my current car and they seem to be better than the Continentals that it had on previously.

Is it the assymetrics you have?
