Default By far the best street tire I've had for warm weather performance...

the grip is always there, and when it slips it is very predictable.

With all the rain that we had in Florida, it was awesome. Totally worth it IMO

Default BTW, check with Costco. They generally have good deals on BFG tires..

Plus, road hazard protection is included.

GREAT tires. I love them. Had them on my GTI and plan to put another set on my A4.

Default I would do the Bridgestone Potenza RE 750s at the same price, I used two sets when I had my A4 and

loved them....

Or if you want a more aggressive stickier tire for the street...

falken rt-615's or Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1

both around $160's
