Default `01 S4 OEM Wheels Tire Recommendation

Thanks in advance...could use some help on tire selection.

Location: No Cal
Current Tire: Goodyear F1
Satisfaction Level: High

Car does not go to Tahoe so zero snow (until I get a 2nd set). I am happy to buy the F1's again, although agree that treadwear was a bit short and the price is high.

Any suggestions on alternatives? If the answer is stick with the F1's, that's ok too but would like some opinions.

Thanks,

mb

Default probably not gonna get any more treadlife unless you're willing to sacrifice some grip/handling...

Something like F1 A/S will give you longer wear, but it'll be at the expense of diminished grip and steering response. So, it all depends on how you drive and what your expectations are.

How many miles did you get out of the F1?
