All season tire
 
I am looking for all season tire of 245/40/18 for my 2008 A6 4.2, I am sensitive to the road noise caused by tire, so I need a quiet tire. I was quoted with Hankook Ventus K110, is that an all-season tire?

While the Hankook Ventus V12 is an awesome tire for the price, it is classified as a summer tire. It definitely is not the quietest tire out there either, so you may want to look at other alternatives.

I run dedicated summers and winters, so I have no experience at all with all-seasons. Maybe someone else on this board can help you.

If you have to go with an all season, go with the Conti ExtremeContact DWS. These are not XL though.

Conti DWS, queitest tire out there

I have the conti dws on my s5. They are junk. The worst tire I have ever owned. Very loud soft sidewalls feels like you are driving on marshmellows. Go with pilot sport all season.

I guess it depends on the type of driving you do. I recently replaced my fronts with the Conti DWS and I'm happy with them. I drive spirited, but no so much in the turns anymore since I'm carrying the kids. Go to Tirerack.com and check out the reviews.

I have the conti dws on my 08 s line and they do make some noise but they grip quite well. I will go with the dw next because they are higher performance than the dws.
