Really ?!?!?!
They are premium brand and fitted by Audi now on some models so I'm quiet surprise.
What deal are you getting on them and what size you are after??

That is a good deal. On the beginning of the year I was paying something like 167 or 174 per tyre, can't remember exactly.

I hope they will serve you well Jim

I've had Toyos (which are quite well known/regarded) on my Fiat Coupe for the last couple of years, and I'd put them on a par with the (standard issue…) Pirellis...
