Now, bare with me, I did my best to search here and all of the information I came across was referencing a B6 platform - 3% variance.

Long story short - New Pilot Alpin PA4 265/35R20s last winter, excellent tire. Nice and quiet, great traction on the ice and snow of all variations. 2 thumbs way up! .

Fast forward to spring, just before swapping onto the summers - massive blow out due to a cottar pin that I drove over, tire was garbage and couldn't be repaired.

Now, these new tires have about 3000km on them, brand new otherwise! But, Michelin has discontinued the PA4 tire line (at least thats what they, and dealer has told me) so I'm struggling to find a single PA4 265/35 tire.

I have, however, found a pair of new PA4 275/35r20. I know the 35 is a ratio, and the difference between my *new* 265s and these new 275s will be roughly 1%...

I know the most correct answer is "Go buy a new set of tires" but at $2500 for a set, dammit, I'd sure not like to.... Does anyone see any issues with proceeding with the marginal mismatch? Wondering if there are different tolerances on the C7 Quattro system.

Thanks for the help!
