S4 Stock Tires
I thought the '01 S4 was coming through with other than the Potenzas - I've seen some with Pirelli's, but most still seem to have the same tires as the '00's. Can you request the Pirellis when ordering the car, or is it really the luck of the draw?

Re: S4 Stock Tires
Just picked up my '01 on Tues. Came with the 040's. Luckily I planned ahead and had 18" BBS RK's with michelin pilot's ready to go and had the dealer put snow's on the original wheels at no charge.

If you're real lucky you'll end up with MXX3's
I've only seen them on cars with the sport package though; coincidence?<p>'00 Cactus Green S4

well...
Most are upset about the frequent occurence of bubbles in the sidewall. I had one bubble and one tire that went "out of round" at 5,000 miles.
At least one person on the forum has received a letter from NHTSA about a the RE040. Don't remember the exact spin of the letter... investigation maybe... dunno.<p>donp - '00 S4 Silver/Silver
