I don't care thaat much about wear rate but these tires are signficantly better then all my previous tires: PZero, Kumho PS91 and Michelin PS4. What i appreciate the most is the road confort and the feedback you get. It decreases the noise and feel impact with bumps and holes. Maybe it's not as precise as the PS4 but they have a better price and on country roads they feel better. Highway driving is a pleasure, you feel the good connection with the roads no matter the if it's raining or it's 40 degrees Celsius.
On my 1.7 tons car the recomended(by Audi) front pressure is 2.7Bar and on the back is 2.3Bar. I keep them at 2.8 and 2.4 Bar and it's great. I Know this model has been for a long time in the market so i bought them last spring. So far i have driven 12000km and i still have 6.2mm left.
In May 2021 there is no stock in Romania and i am glad i got them last year. Vredestein Ultrac Vorti is the best tire i had so far.
Safe trips and no events while driving!

What Audi A6 S line, LeMans 2.0 TDi 170 drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
Had new Continentals AO before I went for The Pilot Sport 3 but they only lasted about 15,000 miles on the front on my Audi A6 and about 28,000 on the rear. Can confirm that the Michelin Pilot Sport 3 have lasted 25,000 miles on the front and an incredible 47,000 miles on the the rear and still have 1mm left on the rear before I go illegal. Maybe I could of swopped the front for the rear at about 20,000 but didn't. That said I am going onto the Pilot sport 4 and hoping for more longevity as my past experience with Michelin is all about Longevity. Forget all that wet and dry braking stuff, no average driving can fully be accurate on this subjectivity. But hard facts on millage...now thats something we can all accurately report on. I know they could make a tire that could last for 100,000 miles but where would the profit be in that? Proving Michelin use a compound better and longer lasting than any other.
Worst tires I ever had! Sensible driver. I haven't had more than 4 months with very little use and they are worn more than the previous old tires which were switched to the rear wheels. I found my self skidding constantly even at low speeds on corners and roundabouts. Complete waste of time and money.
We switched to PS3 after Pirelli Rosso which we found to wear quickly and easily damaged. Often lasted under 5000 miles. The SP3 set felt better driving in all conditions except wet. They lasted 27000 miles wearing evenly. Very pleased. Now have SP4 set. These feel better than the SP3 in all conditions.
I looked at a few sites that reviewed tires and these came out top each time. I had 4 fitted last week and the last few days we have had a lot of rain. These grip so well compared to my last lot which were continentals. I would recommend these to anyone I'm well impressed.
Shockingly bad tires. I recently purchased an Audi A6 with these tires recently fitted by the seller (cheapest option I imagine). I drove through some standing water last night and totally lost control, I managed to wrestle the car back into shape and didn't come off the road thankfully but I am very lucky someone wasn't coming the other way. I have a young family, so the first thing I have done this morning is book an appointment to get these tires removed and a set of Continentals fitted to replace. I would never recommend these tires, over the last few months I have felt like I am skating on ice with them, even in the dry!
Was a bit reluctant to try as had original Pirelli P Zero far too expensive and not exactly best gripping also fitted Falken FK452 great Tire appalling wear on inner shoulders even after tracking etc fully tested. So gave these a try and have to say inb all aspects and driving conditions I don't think can be beaten for money obviously not a BRAND name but having tried a brand leader and then the Falkens i belive this can be highly recomended
Great alternative to the Pirelli rossos Audi have as standard, loads quieter and just as sure footed. Highly recommended.
I've been driving these tires on my 2009 Audi A6, and they are excellent! I'm not a real sporty driver, but i do push the car from time to time, and these tires are doing their job perfectly. I recommend these tires!
Have managed 6300 miles out of the fron set. Am gutted as this is the second set in 12 months, not aggressive driver and would love to know what to go for now
