Default I'm just giving you a hard time.
It's really not a good idea on a quattro car to equip different tire models or different sizes. You were asking about doing both.

My suggestion would be to run 4 of the same tire in the same size. Otherwise the difference in traction could cause you grief w/ the quattro down the road.

Yeah, different diameters will mess up the torsen differential.

Different diameters and tread patterns lead to BIG HANDLING PROBLEMS...

What is the best tire size to keep it neutral? 225/40/18, 235/40/18, or 245/35/18?
