Some great posts on this thread.
My conclusion is that I need two sets of wheels / tyres. One set for Summer and one for Winter driving. Can you good people provide me with your votes: 1. Best summer / dry weather tyre ? 2. Best wet / slippery wet weather tyre? I am fairly confident about the best winter tyres, however your recommendations would be very much appreciated. |

Hi,
Just ordered 4 x Hankook Ventus V12 Evo in 245/35/19Y XL for my TTS - got them for a special price equivalent to around £120 each including fitting & balancing. These have a wear rating of 320 and are replacing a set of very worn Bridgestones that have been on the car from new and have covered an amazing 64,000 kms! Interestingly the Bridgestones have a wear rating of 280 - so the Hankooks might last even longer! Cheers Steve Check out my Instagram @carsandheels

That's pretty outstanding really. Did you rotate them around the vehicle? |

Hi, I have never rotated them - but car has had 4 services at Audi dealer - they may have rotated them. Car has free service contract for 5 years and electronic service record - so you don’t actually get an invoice or paperwork when you collect the car from service!

Personally I'd rotate the tyres.
For what it's worth I rate Conti Contact 5. Seem a good fit for the TT. |

Hi All, I have another post about road noise but it seems to be down to the Pirelli p zero tyres, Audi I believe will replace them but have asked me what I would like,
Any ideas to reduce the horrendous road noise . Size 245 30 20 |

Those Hankooks came on my TTS when I took delivery - worst tyres I gave ever had on a car. The only thing they did well was wear slowly, which frankly wasn't a good thing IMO. I replaced them with Michelin PS4 and it's like driving a different car. I'd cancel the order if you can! TTS Black Edition Coupe, Riviera Blue

are you sure it's not 255?

I've just ordered a full set of MPS4s, getting fitted next week for £714.40. Coming from Hankooks, I hope they are as good as suggested in the various forum threads ![]() |
Hi, Don’t forget - we live in Abu Dhabi and its still currently 44 degrees centigrade during the day. It rains just a few times per year and the roads are extremely smooth. I do a school run each day - which is around 200km on billiard smooth motorways. The grip level on these tyres is perfectly acceptable for this market. Soft tyres wear far too quickly and are not really necessary here. Cheers Steve Check out my Instagram @carsandheels

They may be quiet and cheap, but how do they hold the road? I've read a few comments from ex-users referring to them as 'ditch finders'... |
Not worried about cost in the least, they are better holding the road - but this could be misleading as people compare before and after, that's old tyres vs new. And lets be honest we're not racing on tracks - there's are road cars. I care about stopping and noise.
