    Need Tires.....a6 4.2

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So I got a bubble on the sidewall of my Continental Contact2's yesterday. I bought the car less than a year ago, and I thought the tires were newer, but I guess I was wrong.

    Anyway, I need to buy a complete set now to replace the one that went bad. I spent way too much time reviewing all the possible tires, and I am no closer to deciding on a set.

    I live in Vegas, so I can basically getaway with a summer only tire, but if you know of a good tire any suggestions would be great. Good performance, quiet on the street, and good wear would be nice.

    I am getting a set of 19's once I get my car lowered, but I want a set of good tires for my fat fives. I guess if you have recommendations for tires for my 19's I might as well hit you up for those now too..

    thanks

    2x on Generals -- you'd have to spend over double to only maybe, possibly have slightly better performance (also good in rain, which won't matter for you, I gather). See review/comparisons on Tirerack.
    Nothing going to bring it back: 2000 C5 2.7T 6sp MT
    Ming Blue, S6 Blades, EuroSpoiler,
    GIAC-93, AWE DPs to Milltek Catback,
    RS4 Clutch, JHM DT-Stabilizer, VAST Short-Shifter,
    H&R Sways, Eibach Pro-kit, Bilstein Sport Shocks, etc., ...
    NOW: '10 Jetta TDI w 6MT, Revo Tune Commuter Car
