Default Endless Topic NEW TIRES

Well, Its time for another set.
2000 A4 2.8 Q

First of all I just had a daughter--so my budget is a bit tight.

I can't afford to rip through AAA traction tires anymore.

Looking for suggestions for quality AA traction. I need a bit more distance and roadwear.

Looking for comments on handling, performance, price etc...

You know you tires are starting to wear when they start to fade in curves (yikes)

If you want summer only, the BFG's we used last year and will use this year are great

Default Take a strong look at BFG G-Force Sports. They are a 340 treadwear...

Z rated summer tire with amazing grip and the treadwear to get you through at LEAST 20k of high grip driving (assuming you are good about rotating often). I've had mine on for 10k so far, I rotate every 3k and they STILL look brand new. And I do not drive like grandma if you get my point. Hope this helps.
