Fitment comes from each tire's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

Continental SportContact 7 255-35-20 Audi a6 avant 3.0 tdi s line August 7, 2025
I've gotten about 40k km with these tires, I have fwd car and I've changed front tires with rear tires. For me the tires have been amazing. But unfortunately the tires make a lot of noice.

RoadX RXMOTION U11 255-35-19- Audi a6 avant 3.0 tdi s line 12,000 miles August 21, 2022
I’ve used these tires on 3 different cars and in this size they are a good price point. I’d describe them and a good budget tire that I would buy again if money was tight. Fitted to a 2wd automatic heavy Audi, they scrabble about and have worn evenly. Negative is the lack of rim protection making the wheels very prone to curbing and for that reason alone I’ve switched to Falkens.

Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S 255-35-20- Audi a6 avant 3.0 tdi s line 300 miles November 17, 2021
These replaced some Goodyear F1 Supersport tires. The Goodyears had amazing grip, great steering response and I got almost 30k miles out of them. The problem with them was the harsh ride, really noticed a difference when I had the PS4 S fitted and it wasn’t a case of old v new, I noticed the harsh ride after the Goodyears replaced some Pirelli’s. The Michelins are so much more comfortable, a little quieter but are still responsive to steering input. If you’re an out and out racer choose the Goodyears, if you want 99% of the Goodyear’s steering response but value comfort choose the Michelins, I will in future!

Nexen N Fera SU1 255-35-20- Audi a6 avant 3.0 tdi s line 12,000 miles May 3, 2017
I have 20" wheels with low profile tires on an Audi A6 S-Line, and the Pirelli's PZero that the car came with offered good road feedback but were getting increasingly hard, uncomfortable and noisy as they started to get older. So when they finally went, I wanted to replace them with something more quiet and comfortable, but also good in the wet and with a decent handling level. The NFera SU1 is exactly the type of tire i was looking for.

Positives: very comfortable, extremely quiet for a 255/35/R20 tire (Nexen says 68dB), good wet grip, great price
Negatives: not so good road feedback and dry braking (compared to the PZero), handling is average

The wear level is nothing special, it wears a bit faster than the PZero, because the SU1 is a softer tire, but not by much. I have done about 12k miles and they seem to be about half their original thread height.

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 255-35-20- Audi a6 avant 3.0 tdi s line 2,000 miles May 15, 2016
Replaced OE Bridgestone S001 with these new Goodyear F1 ASY 3. Just completed first 3K miles and am impressed with tire. Looks good on the alloy with a good rim protection element. Tires have proved grippy in both wet and dry conditions and it's a comfortable quiet journey once you get your tire pressures bang on. It's relatively early days but so far impressed with tire.

Kumho Ecsta KU19 225-45-17- Audi a6 avant 3.0 tdi s line 6 miles March 9, 2013
Very good tires. I had 2 KU19 on front and 2 Potenza on back. Very good grip, very good road feedback, low noise. I have a Quattro and it never understeered. Now i have winter tires Dunlop Winter Sport 3D. Sucks grip, big noise, hard steering. Very bad tires. Very happy with KU19/Potenza RE040 combination

Bridgestone Potenza RE040 245-45-18- Audi a6 avant 3.0 tdi s line 15 miles March 9, 2013
In my opinion this tires are amayzing. Very good grip on dry road. Very quiet, good grip, but wear is very bad. I bought them at 50%wear, and in 10,000KM were sliks:)). I was very happy with them. In my drive limits them never lost grip. I was afraid to push more but this summer i will. Now I have more experience. Very good tires for 20E per tire.(second hand)I had only 2 Potenza on back. This summer I will buy 4.

Maxxis MA Z4S Victra 225-50-17- Audi a6 avant 3.0 tdi s line 200 miles September 11, 2012
Previously on Continentals Sport Contact 2 , been very happy with casual driving and occasional wild moment of going crazy and squeezing everything that factory gave me. Tried these Maxxis tires and within minutes i gain a lot of confidence, they stick to the road so well in dry and wet conditions! Amazing tire all round i would say they as gd as the contis for fraction of a price! The only down side is that they r a little louder not much. Def recommend these tires!!!!

Avon ZZ5 255-35-19-W Audi a6 avant 3.0 tdi s line 1,500 miles September 6, 2011
bought these to replace bridgestone potenzas because the bridgestones were £250 a corner and i got these for £150.To be honest i was not expecting to much from them but have been pleasantly surprised,less road noise,grip well in the wet and dry also very predictable on the limit.i have add no drop in mpg like the first reviewer and i will have to see what they wear like as i have only covered 1500 miles,all in all i would say the overall performance of these tires are very close to the bridgestones with a saving of £400 when buying 4.
