Tire question . . buy 2 or 4?
My A4 is quattro. My rear two tires are practically bald. (suspension issues now fixed) My front two tires are about half way worn. I will be ordering some more Continentals here in the next day or so. Do I need to buy all 4 because of the AWD or can I make it with just ordering 2.

You should be fine with just replacing two. Not a bad idea to stick with matching tires, though.
Definately keep the same size although if you want to replace all 4, you can go with 225/50/16's. ;-)

Thanks for the advice guys. I ended up bumping into Mance this morning. He recommended going with
all 4. So 4 it is. I checked Tirerack for the 225's for ContiExtremeContact in 225/50/16. Ended up being $20 price difference, so decided to stick with the 205/55/16 so as not to hurt the checkbook too bad.
