Default New Member: Best place to buy winter wheels+tires

Picking up my new Ibis White towards the end of the month!!! Super excited!
Is there a preferred option for winter wheels+tires? Do most members get it through Tirerack? Also, does anyone have rear seat covers installed? Found a listing on ebay but it seems quite expensive for a piece of tarp... thoughts?

Thanks y'all!

I'm getting my 2012 A4 in a week or so as well...can't wait! Downtown Audi has the rear seat cover for $55...I bought one for when I need to put an extra hockey bag back there.

I just picked up a '12 pbp a4 as well, got the s-line package so i have to get winters as well... most likely going to get it at tirerack, i just took a look.

the cheapest combo i build in 17" is still ~1300. i was getting local quotes for about the same, so still undecided right now. maybe we'll see more sale/promo/discount on winters when october comes.

Hi, I have seen good prices for some tires on 1010tires.com. You don't pay duty/fright since it is a canadian business. Didn't purchase yet but i'm considering.
