18" tyres ????

Hi all

I own an Audi A6 avant 2.5 tdi 1998, it has been lowered by 25mm on H&R adjustable. I am currently using Pirelli P zero rosso 235x40, but not quite happy with them.

It has been a while shopping for tyres so what is the best for my little girl?

also consider vredestein ultrac sessanta and Michelin PS2

PS2 are the recommended for my B5 RS4....they seem ok but I think they have quite a hard compund!

Get some ditchfinder extremes......£7.33 a pair at the moment from a guy at the market.

In all seriousness what don't you like about your current tyres? The Alfa is on 18"s and I've got the PZero Rossos in 225/40 XL

And they cost more than gold itself.

and suck balls in the wet. I know from 1st hand experience.

ps2 suck balls in the wet, not in my experience, they are costly tho, if i was buying today id be getting the cheaper of the vreds or the goodyears

TBH I wonder if anything could be better for the price ( £140), as it seems to go through at least a tyre/ year with milegae of 16k

Cyrus · 13 Jun 2008 at 11:53

that sounds about right

I get a year out of my fronts, 25k, mostly motorway
