[BiturboS4] Toyo Proxes T1S

[Michael Kuriger]

road noise is hard to hear in the audi anyway.  it's a heavy well
insulated car.  i think it's a moot point.

FWIW, I have S03's on my 91 isuzu impulse RS and can't hear the tires
over the noise of the engine :-)  I still have the factory tires on the
audi since I've barely hit 10,000 miles on it
