Default Best tire?

What should my next set of tires be? I am already looking forward to changing my wheels back to the titanium rs4 wheels. I will probably sell these wheels one by one with the tires for others with rs4's to use as spares. They will be repainted to the oem silver. Any advice and why. Thank you.

Default PS2's are the consensus favorite? [edit]

Maybe you should leave the black wheels on a bit to see if they grow on you. I now think they look pretty good. Or how about painting them a high metallic very dark gray similar to those on the BMW photo posted in your earlier thread? That "smoked chrome" look might be nice.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/rs4b7/msgs/51225.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/rs4b7/msgs/51225.phtml</a</li></ul>

Default do you have another vehicle for a rain car?

if so, get the Pirelli Corsas.

Default I will most likely get the Goodyear F1 GS-D3's next....

I wouldn't get them if you track the car b/c they are a little soft, but they are great in the dry and nothing is better in the wet.

Default My mistake! Just a quick look without scrolling and guess my brain filled in the rest

Sorry. Great looking "Bimmer" nonetheless. :-)

Default If I had a set to play around with I would try a few different schemes.

Daytona Grey for one and Black Diamond finish like my BBS RGRs.

Default A very interesting car the R's from Volvo are...the wagons are just great

but tha value of the S60R is a difficult combo for any mft to beat. If only their dealer network supported a performance division...just horrible.

I had more compliments on that car then the RS4 could ever match. It was just so unusual I think for people to think Volvo made something like this...it was comfortable, fast and fully optioned...including the bodykit for 12K off a 50K MSRP.

Gotta love Ford owning Volvo.

Anyway, the Beemer is in New Mexico where its new owner is king of the town.
