Finally after 2 months the UPS guy brought my wheels.

Can someone help me understand AW's fascination with these tires?
First off, beautiful wheels. I love 'em.
Secondly, please don't take this as a personal attack. These tires are luxury-oriented tires. They're soft and quiet. Yes, I know Audis are luxury cars, but 99% of the people on this board are mainly concerned with performance. The ST-115s are NOT GOOD PERFORMANCE TIRES. Hell, Kumho 712s are better performers. The S4 deserves a better tire than the ST-115. Hell, the stock tires are much better performers than the ST-115. Why are so many people getting this tire? it reminds me of a few years ago when everyone was saying how Red Box pads are so great.
Please, please help me understand. =/

You did want high performance tires?
The ST-115s are the best I've had for a smooth, quiet ride, which is what I was hoping you wanted. If you wanted high-performance tires, I'll be interested to see what you think of them after driving on them for a week and testing their limits.
