New tire help!
I have a 98.5 A4 1.8T QM with the sport package. I have no suspension upgrades and have the stock 16 inch wheels. I currently have Michilen Pilot Sport A/S's on, but they will need to be replaced soon. I can't choose between these 3:
Pilot Sport A/S's (again) @ $140 per tire
Conti Extreme Contact A/S @ $80 per tire
BridgeStone Potenza RE960 A/S @ $108 per tire
All are rated at a ZR speed rating
Pilot Sport A/S's (again) @ $140 per tire
Conti Extreme Contact A/S @ $80 per tire
BridgeStone Potenza RE960 A/S @ $108 per tire
All are rated at a ZR speed rating

Re: New tire help!
Hard to go wrong with any of those choices. I feel the RE960A/S is a great choice and compares well to the more expensive Michelin Sport A/S. The Extreme Contact would be a slight step down in steering resonse and dry grip but would offer better snow traction and a bit softer ride.<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/a.jsp?a=AR8&url=/tires/index.jsp">Tires</a></li></ul>
