Took wife out for a ride the other day, drove on some small forest roads and even though I was driving "slow" and was soft on the break and steering my wife complained over dizziness and nausea, saying that the TT has to "hard" in the curves and hard suspension....
So I gues she wont be riding a lot with me in the TT in the future, just my luck to have the TT all for myself.....

You guys are both lucky!! My wife's response to a vigorous ride in my TT was "Cool!" and the next morning she took the TT to work! The only saving grace was she drives a new A6Q, which had more gas in it than the TT.

....I would completely agree with Joe's comment below. I tend to get nauseated in cars with soft rides and loose steering. (I ended up in a Crown Victoria rental in Newark last year and had to keep cold air blowing into my face when I was driving on curvy roads!) I feel GREAT in the TT....no feeling of motion sickness whatsoever.
I hope you can figure out what's causing her distress....unless, of course, you want the TT ALL to yourself!! ;-)

and the vibration and constant little shocks from small bumps caused me problems. Not fun. Finally got all-season Dunlop SP5000s which smooth things out considerably, but at the price of lower performance. I'm moderately hopeful that the Mk2 suspension, which is supposed to be somewhat smoother, will allow me to put the original summer tires back on. Does your TT have the Mk1 or Mk2 suspension?
You might try the Dunlops or Michelin Pilot XGT Z4s. The Michelins have almost as smooth a ride and traction as the Dunlops, but have more responsiveness, which is what I miss most in the Dunlops.
