A piece of string caused my tire leak!
So after taking the tire off my wheel they found a string pinched between the bead and the lip of the wheel... you couldn't see the string... but I noticed bubbles from the leak area when I cleaned the wheel. So everything is fine now! I Love the 18" OEM RS4'S and Pilot Sports! It's amazing how much more cushion a inch of rubber gives. My 19" RS4's were too harsh for the roads here in the NW. The roads here have gotten worse with no sign of improvenment.

Close enough..Here's the chart :>:>
find your size on the left, then go to the next to last column on the right, and "diameter" in inches, is given. 225/45-17 is 25 inches, 225/40-18 is 25.1 inch. Many TTr's have used 235/40-18 @ 25.4 inches. The small increase in diameter is OK. Just be certain to use matching diameters, front and rear..<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/a.jsp?a=AR4&url=%2Ftires%2FSpec.jsp%3Fmake%3DM ichelin%26amp%3Bmodel%3DPilot%2BSport%2BPS2">PS-2 specs</a></li></ul>
