So did mine. I don't like these P7. They squeal like banshees if you take the corners a bit hot..

Dont think there is a diff but my A4 ordered with sport pkg (prem+) came with P7s. So far, I like them. No complaints. Think the times that came on our cars were up to what ever they had one the floor at the time of build.

I think there is a difference -- the P7 is classified only as a "high performance summer" tire and sold by Pirelli as a "green" performance tire -- the PS2 are classified as a "Max performance summer" -- the Pzero slots in above the P7 in the Max performance category.

I'm not saying they are bad tires, but I don't think they are as sticky as the PS2 or even the dunlops that some others got with the sport pkg and they do tend to squeal when doing moderate cornering.

It's likely they put whichever "summer" tire they could get that month for the lowest cost.

The P7s are great on my A4. Never squealed but I am no kid.
