Tires Toyo or Continental
I'm a Conti guy, they're on both our cars. Premium brand, never let me down. I've run Kumhos in the past and they were good for the price.
I ended up buying 275/50/21 for my replacements. I'm not paying $400/tire. I think it was $220ea, and no issues after 25k miles. It's snowing in Indy now, and I'm fine. Slick roads, it's got grip.
The best tire by far is Continental. No question. The Kumho is the only one I would even think of putting on a car.
I have been purchasing Toyo tires for some time now and really like them. I buy them for my truck though, MT and RT so they are large heavy tires. I buy them because they last and are tough.
Continental > Kumho > Road Hugger > Sentury
Thanks for all the advice guys, went ahead and ordered the Continental ECS 02s, fingers crossed I’m happy with them. My biggest issue with my RS4s is that it takes about 2 runs on my favorite backroad to get enough heat in them to really stick and I don’t push my car on public roads like I used to. If I get the added benefit of making my car more daily-able that’s not a bad thing either.
Continental or bust.
I typically get the Continental dws 606+ or whatever it's called. They ride and handle as well as the Michelin Pilot Sport all seasons.
I only buy Continental touring tires. They're hard, and a bit noisy, but they hold up forever to highway driving.
Mine came with Toyos as well. They lasted until about 30k. By then they were pretty much junk.
