Which 225/40 R18 winter tyres for Golf IV, few suggestions

Hello, currently driving GoodYear Ultragrip 7, from 2010 in size 205/50 R16. They are too loud to me… have a comparison to the Audi A3 8V, which has Dunlop Winter 3D in size 205/50 R17. Supposedly the Ultragrip 8 should be quieter… Have taken the following tires into focus: Conti WinterContact 850 Dunlop 3D/4D Pirelli Sottozero III All 3 have no V profile and are not track-bound. Who has experience with the above tyres? Would it be nice if one or another Golf IV driver s I would report… because the same tire on Auto A behaves differently than on Auto B
