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.

Avon ZV5 205-55-16-V Audi A4 2.5tdi Quattro Avant Sport 35,000 miles October 17, 2015
I don't think you can beat these tires for value at under £50 a corner. Managed to get 35000 miles out of a set with fantastic grip in both wet and dry conditions - not hanging around either!!

Uniroyal RainSport 3 225-45-17- Audi A4 2.5tdi Quattro Avant Sport 7,000 miles October 19, 2014
Apart from the slightly soft sidewall, these are excellent tires in all conditions that I've driven them in (no snow!) and I'm pleased with te wear rate this far. They are not the most sporting of tire I've tried and do require more attention than most to ensure pressures are correct for seasonal temperature variations otherwise performance deteriorates quite dramatically, overall though performance is great, especialy in the wet of course. Having tried many different tires from the the top manufacturer i.e Conti/Goodyear/Michelin/Dunlop in over 9 years & 167,000 miles I've had the car and only having been impressed by the old F1 GSD3 & Spotmaxx TT's I went for what I considered a 2nd tier tire manufacturer. On present performance I will replace like for like when the time comes if the top manufacturers do not raise the game to justify the extra cost.

First class for the price. If you drive like a P***K expect to come off the road like with any tire. Do winter tire really work in the snow the answer is simple only if on a 4X4. 10 out of 10 for value. Motorway speed limit is 70mph most roads 30,40,50,60mph handles these easily even in wet conditions as said drive sensible and they wont let you down. Halfords fitted 4 through tiresavings.com for £264.00 including balancing disposal etc 12mth guarantee or 12000 miles

Marshal KH35 225-45-17- Audi A4 2.5tdi Quattro Avant Sport 8,000 miles June 21, 2012
it is ok on dry, although under pressure in a continuos corner they eventually give way.
wet is awful, ABS and traction control continously being set off. Gets worse as tire gets worn.
for a budget tire with this low grip i thought wear would be less.

Fullrun HP199 235-35-19-W Audi A4 2.5tdi Quattro Avant Sport 5,200 miles June 12, 2012
These tires lasted me a total of four months & 5200 miles.
I removed them due to the inside side-walls cracking and letting air out.
They were fitted to the car when purchased, was hoping they would last a few more months yet, as they still had 6mm tread all round.

Basically, the phrases "buy cheap, buy twice" "you get what you pay for" both apply here.

These tires are accidents waiting to happen - if you have them, make sure you check them regularly until you can change them.

Purchased the car with these tires - so cant compare with any others at the minute.
Posting this review as a word of warning - all four tires have cracked on the inside wall - there is a single crack going around the whole circumference of the tire. The tires are two months old and done 4700 miles.
For reference the geometry of the car is correct, the tires are at the correct pressure and load index for the car.

Michelin Pilot Sport 3 PS3 225-45-17- Audi A4 2.5tdi Quattro Avant Sport 26,000 miles April 22, 2011
these are the best tires ive ever had..
i drive and audi A4 Quattro sport avant 2.5v6 tdi, had it from nearly new and now on 100k miles. Ive tried Conti sport contacts (wear out too quick)
dunlop sp's (crap in the wet / snow) michellin PS2 (good tire) but the michellin PS3 is hard to beat.. this last year ive been working in london (I work in the building industry) travelling from Manchester via the Snake pass and the M1, fully laden with tools etc.; I drive it hard in all weather and these tires never let me down - flat out on the motorway or whipping round the s bends in rain or shine, they stick to the road like sh*t to a blanket. got to replace the rears next week as worn to minimum after 26000mls. Buy them, you wil NOT regret it.
