Default RS 7 all season tires

Have a 2016 on order and trying to see if there are recommendations for all season tires (did the upgraded 21" tires). Live in Chicago and summer tires just won't cut it year around. Can't seem to find any on Tirerack/Goodyear etc. Thanks!

You can't find them because they don't exist. I think most people swap out to smaller wheels and tires for the winter. I can just barely get away with summer tires all year long where I live but I would be much happier with high performance all seasons. I sure hope somebody makes them for our 21" wheels soon.

Don't be cheap with an RS7. Get proper summer and winter setup to enjoy that vehicle to it's fullest potential.

I have the Michelin Pilot Sport All season 3 on my 20 inch HRE, and they are very good. Only minimal loss of dry grip in summer, decent in light snow since they are siped and have different rubber compounds. Seem to still grip well under APR level acceleration in straight line. I don't push handling to limit in that car, nor do I track that car. Not bad compromise.

I'm in Chicago and I opted for a full winter set-up: 20" Hartmanns with 265/35/20 Dunlop 3Ds......based on last winter (and this one so far), I'm really glad I did. All-season tires would not have done the job.

Default Still no 21” all season tire options for RS7?

Looking for 21inch all season tires for my 2017 RS7 and having zero luck. Would appreciate any guidance on whether or not these type of tires are available and where to get them? Thanks!

There is a Perelli P7 all season 275/35-21 available through Tirerack. But don’t try and search for it by vehicle model, because it won’t show up. Search via tire size. Mike
