Re: TIRE TECH: Everything you always wanted to know!!!
I agree with most of what you say. I've had Kumho's, Pirelli's and Falken's.
Not to defend the Pirelli's, they do wear fast, but while getting there they handle very good. For the price, the Falken's are the best. They stick to the road like no others and Kumho's are next in my palmares.
For winter tires (and we got some good ones here), the very best are Nokian Hakkapeliitta. They are unbeatable.
Just my $0.10.

Nice write up.
I just bought a 2001 A6 Avant and I have a set of Hankook I-Pike from a previous car. I'm wondering if any of you have ever run 15" rims with winters? These tires are 205/55 R15 and I would like to put them on but I can't find anywhere if I can put 15"'s on this car.

just purchased a 2009 A4 3.2 this week. Just wondering what size rims will fit. I was thinking of a staggered look, maybe 19 x 8.5 front and 19 x 9.5 rear, any idea if this will fit?

I have to agree with the Dunlop Sport Maxx tires. I bought a brand new set. Great grip, but now I'm in my 3rd summer and they're pretty much done. They didn't even last 20K's.....

It is true that tire opinions vary, as well do driving styles. It is true that tire opinions vary, as well do driving styles. The P6's are very nice but mucho $$$
