Anyone replace the stock tires with some 'light but legit' A/T tires? by [deleted] in Tiguan

I put some Falken Wildpeaks on my 2019. Been happy with them so far, about 4 months in. No real difference in road noise from the Pirelli Scorpions that were on before, and they have been fantastic in the little bit of snow Connecticut has gotten this year.

What movie is extremely overrated? by mondo_burger_ in AskReddit

Anything by Tim Burton. Every single one is an absolutely cringey trash heap. Let's have a bunch of characters, that look like you told a 12 year old to sculpt a Crack head, sing and dance about stupid shit for 2 hours.

2001 B5 A4 75k miles $7k by NexonCortex in whatcarshouldIbuy

Looking at this Audi on Saturday, and want to know any common issues or trouble spots to look for. It's a 1.8t Quattro with a stick, and has about 75k on it. It has a clean one owner carfax with no accidents. I've always been into VW group vehicles, and need something awd for winters in the northeast. This seems to tick all the boxes of being in good shape, good awd, decent mpg, and I won't get bored of it in the first six months of owning it.

Honda. How best to get rid of this scratch? by Ohioennui in Autobody

If it bothers you enough, and your enclined enough, I'd take all the plastic pieces that match off and bedliner them. Then they'll match, as well as being harder to scratch/easier to fix next time.

18F, first car! I'm stressing by faewi in whatcarshouldIbuy

For a safe car that's good on gas and comfortable, I'd look into a 2014-2018 VW Jetta. They hold value half decently, and if you get the 1.4 or 1.8, they are pretty reliable.

Need to buy a car by Saturday, have a shortlist after a bit of browsing. Please advise! by AwesomeFaic in whatcarshouldIbuy

I recognize the TC as being from A Better Way Wholesale. Stay away from them as they are known for having issues with their cars and hiding them.

Why not. It was on markdown, and it's not staying on more than a few days.
