I just put on a set of the Kuhmo MX in 255/40/17s. Love them. I'd be willing to put up with some road noise with all the grip these things give but they're actually really quiet on the highway. I think Paul K. has the exact same tire on the way. I don't think he'll be disappointed. -- -Marc Swanson- 95.5 //S6 Avant 87 4ktq www.mswanson.com/audi
