Audi A6 Avant 2.7Tdi Quattro S Line Tires

I've been using these tires for 2 years now, in the dry and in the wet they are worse than a normal winter tire, but they really shine when driving on slush and snow, giving you a huge advantage when going up a snowy road in the alps.

I first review these tires on 21/09/2015.

A friend of mine bought some new tires and had these junk tires fitted for a whopping £65 a corner. So I thought I'd update this.

I said that they were well priced however unsafe for wet roads, eg the UK. I mentioned you can loose control at sharp B road bends at 40mph in the wet.

Some Fool with a BMW wrote a review with my review in mind, he couldn't understand how grip can be lost at 40mph. Well, I guess if he can't understand that then nobody can help him.

Anyhow, I noticed these tires were reviewed recently compared to other UHP tires and surprise, surprise. The Wet grip is atrocious and the tester had only words of condemnation for this tire.

Buy a Barum B5 or a Debica UHP Presto, they cost about the same and are far more better if your after budget tires.

Don't listen to any reviewers writing about how these tires are good on the Wet etc, they don't know what there talking about, they could review a wooden wheel and blab on about how comfortable they are.

Swapped over from my Goodyear Eagle Asym3 summer tires to these as a more cost efficient winter tire solution as it gives more benefit being all season. After 250 miles of bedding in, they are very sure footed on my 280Bhp remapped A6 Quattro Avant in the dry and equally in heavy wet weather. Overall MPG is fractionally lower than the GY but that goes for any winter tires. I'm impressed with the low noise of these tires and they are very comfortable. The only small negative is that on the limits of a good B road there is a tendency for some floating but the Quattro system brings everything in-line; not sure how it would play out on a front drive car. Braking performance has been excellent in all conditions and with some cold icy mornings they have been reassuring on the back roads into work. Will update if I get opportunity to drive in the snow as we head in to winter. After 2,000 miles no visible wear, great value and would happily recommend and buy these tires again.

Quite possibly the best tire you can put on your car for the day to day requirements. I replaced my Michelin PS3s with the Goodyear's and the ride Quality is smooth and far less tire noise. They have tremendous wet weather grip, coupled to the Quattro system and I won't be going back to Michelin's... I had previous experience of Asym 2 on my TTS and they transformed the car from the Avon's. Highly recommended, just review the official tests to see how highly they score in proper testing environments.
