RE: Tyres



Ok

I just rung BR Motorsport in the UK, and they advise sticking to P6000's for the front and if I want to change to something different then change all four tyres at once. Seems reasonable to me.

>From my experience...  Last winter I put two new michelins on front and two
used michelins rear (same tread pattern, same size, but different tread
depth)... on summer I had to change center diff...   May be it was already
not very good, but I think the tyres give the last point.
And my friend, who is very close connected with autosport didn't recomend
me to put even the same size but different tread pattern / depth tyres on
quattro...
