stock 21" pirelli summer tires
 
Hi I'm new to this audi forum, and recently purchased a 2016 audi SQ5 it has the stock 21" Pirelli summer tires. my question have any of you experience riding in the rain with these tires? i live in California and i don't see many options for the 21" tire they don't have an all season tire.

Hello. Just had new Pirelli P Zero GT put on my 2016 SQ5 this past Friday after running Dunlops that came with the car. Pirelli's are much quieter and more comfortable ride and also have great grip when cornering. I live in SoCal so not much need for an all-season tire

Lol.... I have these tires and they are wonderful in the wet. And any other condition of summer use for that matter.
Very quiet as well.

Have these tires and in SoCal. They are all right. Next tire will be 265/40/21

Pilot Sport 4S

I like either the Verde or Zero from Pirelli on SUVs, the Verde being a little more friendly to poor weather - both seem to be good value for the cost. More here: https://www.audiworld.com/forums/q5-...-zero-2934767/

Would love to know if 265/40R21 Pilot Sport 4S fit without spacers in the front. Please post back when you get them.

The people that have went to from 255/40/21 to 265/40R21 haven't needed spacers.

Not all tires are the same exact size. I saw pics of 265/40R21 Pirelli Scorpion Verde that fit fine without spacers. And I also read threads on AZ where 265/40R21 Atturo and Michelin Latitude Sport 3 were rubbing in front and the people added spacers.

Has Anybody on this forum replied that they had rubbing problems going from 255/40R21 to 265/40R21?

Hello Gents,
Just swapped my shot 25k Dunlops(stock) for the beefier Michelin Lattitude 3. Put about 600 miles on them and definitely love the ride: smoother, plush I'd say. Only 2 times in a very sharp corner I've felt a bit of rubbing. I'll add some spacers for that.
Cheers,
Bob
I haven't seen anybody with the PS4S yet, they're a newer model than Latitude Sport 3...
