Re: Help: Nokian NRW 16's on 2000 S4?
Choice of tire depends on what you're after. the "Q" is a true snow tire, designed for maximum snow/ice performance without going to studs. The NRW is an all-season tire, but balance is tipped towards snow over dry road performance. I've had the NRWs, liked them a lot.
The best service and prices I've found in the US for Nokian tires is G&G Service at 414.628.1716 in Wisconsin. Ask for Gary. I live in Southern California, but have bought numerous tires and have recommended them to several friends. Tell him what you need, and he'll give you straight advice. No relationship to the business, I'm just a happy customer.

Re: NRW-H's -- not Q's -- but sound high to me too. Specs: 205/55's
eTires.com (Chicago Area) has (had?) a limited selection of Nokians (maybe only NRW-H's). Full price is @$122.86 (shipping included) for 205-55-16. Included is long term comprehensive road hazard warranty with free replacement! Got mine (in Philadelphia) in three days from order. I was/am very impressed. Previously I had gotten NRWs from Greer Enterprises in WI and was very happy with their service. I called them to see if they would match eTires price (I didn't know about the warranty until the tires arrived). They said they couldn't come close (@$136 tire w/o shipping) and seemed stunned by the $122.86 price. Got Ronal R-28 wheels and local mounting. Totals below.
Tires = 491.44
Wheels (+ ship) = 610.00
Mounting = 70.00
Total = 1171.44
