I was going to get Toyo T1S for my S4 but ended up buying a set of take-off
B6 S4 18x8 wheels already shod with Continental SportContact2 tires.
I was very pleasantly surprised by how much better the Contis are
than the sucky old Pirelli P6000s.  The noise level is very low, the ride
is good, and the grip is excellent too.  From all the reviews I've
read so far on these, the only complaint is that the tread wear is poor.
But then that is a fact of life for most uber-performance class tires.
Soft, sticky rubber = short tread life.
