All due respect, you drive an Audi, bro (and to each his own, I am happy you can afford it


The Audi A4 Premium can be had for mid to upper 30's. You painted with a broad brush.

If you are paying upper 30s you should not be worried about tires.

This. And the tires probably cost less, too. But that's irrelevant. Just because someone can afford something doesn't mean that they should enjoy buying tires, paying taxes, or whatever. Buying tires sucks whether it's for a Honda Civic or a Mercedes Benz.

I had low profiles 19 inch on my last Infiniti- tried several brands until I found this tire

Best Low Profile Tire

Great mileage and performance

Prefer Michelin from Costco. Wait until they run a free install promo with a rebate. They rotate between Michelin and Bridgestone promos.
