skinny on tires?

[Grant Lenahan]

I have had mediocre luck with Khumos street tires, although thier track tires can be excellent.

My fave at the moment - on both my S6 and my boxster - are the BFG g-force comp-2 blah, blah.

They are NOT all season, i don't believe.

They are terrific - superior to most price-no-object ultra-high performance tires.

No idea if you can get them in your size.

The problem is they are good for a little while (~10k miles or so) and once they begin to wear noise, vibration, etc. all sets in for the remaining life of the tire no matter how many trips you make to the tire shop for balancing. The allroad was vastly improved by a set of Bridgestones (Turanza "touring" category no less).

We recently put a set on our son's 2000 A4 1.8tq as a slightly lower cost alternative to Michelin/Bridgestone/Continental but hopefully better than Kuhmo/Falken/Etc. and so far they are awesome. They are also symmetrical and designed for cross rotating, which could be a huge wear enhancement on a quattro. They came highly recommended by a local shop I used to buy Fuldas from before US import of Fuldas changed and they became scarce.
