Current setup is definite as I checked the spare for details, as it's never been used.

Seller said they came off an A6, so that would explain that.

Something I had thought about, but ultimately adds to the cost. Since the tyres are all the same and with only a few thousand miles on them, they may be easier to sell on, but it will all depend on what I can get the set for. There will always be others available.

Never realised how much a different tyre affected a car. Learn something new every day.
