2009 winter tires
hi,
new to this forum. just put an order in for a manal 2009 a4 premium package. have started thinking about winter tires and may use the stock rims for winters and look to after market rims for nonwinter use - any recommendations for nonwinter rims. thx |

Audi has nice rims at the dealer. R18 for my A4 would make it even sexier than it already is.

Re: 2009 winter tires
Welcome aboard !
Whatever you do, try to go lighter (if budget allows). I went from OEM 18's to 19" Volks. The 10 lb difference per corner was very noticeable in ride, accelleration and handling ! I picked up mine used from a guy in Cali ... troll the classified forums here, AZ, AW etc and if you're patient, you'll find something you'll like. Good luck ! |
Re: 2009 winter tires
i just got knockoffs, err, replicas for my A3. audi was giving away free snows on all quattros. rather than give me the same size (18"), i asked them to give me 17" for the snows instead. saved money by buying the rims and getting them installed somewhere else.

Re: 2009 winter tires
It's a great idea to go with smaller rims in winter, so if you have 17" summer tires, the best set-up is 205 55 16. You can find OEM Audi rims on Craiglist, then I recommend the Dunlop Winter Sport, the top rated winter tire. I drive to Whistler on heavy snow mornings and these have been stunning
Good Luck |
