Re: Need winter tires for my 2010 B8!
The stock tires are 255/35/R19. They're suggesting for winter 225/40/R18. Reason it's 18" is because I already have audi 18" rims from my other car. They are Hankook W300 ICE BEAR.
Not too sure about the price they're working it into my overall car deal it's costing me only 600 bux they're paying for the rest.

Between the 225 or 245 the narrrower tire will cut thru deep snow much better but the wider tire will corner better on dry winter days.
Also you need to note the hub size. If your existing OEM 18" wheel came from an older Audi - it will likely not fit. For the B8 A4, the hub size increased from 57.1mm to 66.56mm. The hub on your new B8 S4 will be bigger than the hub cavity on the back of the older audi wheels.
However, if your existing 18" wheels are aftermarket or replica, then it should come with a hub size of 72mm and then with a hubring to size it down to 57.1mm. If this is the case, then you just need to buy hubrings to size down from 72mm to 66.56mm.
The Hankook Icebear are great performance snowtires - i was trying to get them but they sold out this season so I'm running on 225/45R18 Michelin Pilot Alpin PA3 on 18x8 ET38 Audi A8 Replicas.
