This is the second time I'm running into this problem. Trying to buy winter tires this late in season and stock is low or some not available at all. Few questions..
What is the best winter tire/size/wheel for A8? I live in WI and like to chase snow for skiing.
Locally I found;
1. used set of OEM RS7 wheels(winter tires almost gone) for $1750. Likely forged... One wheel has a bigger scuff than I care to see(pic below)
2. and aftermarket Sport Edition wheels with almost new Blizzaks DM-v1 255/45/20 for $750. from Q5, and he thinks offset is 30 or 32...
3. I have a set from old car.. 1 season on brand new Michelin x-ice 235/50/18
A8 doesn't have adoptive cruise control or lane keep
Thanks much

Does everyone have winter tires and rims on? Would allweather tires on stock rims be worth it? Or...
