Fitment comes from each tyre's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

Tigar Prima 205-55-16- Audi A4 1.8T S Line 20,000 miles November 14, 2021
Very disappointed on wet road... And was not impressed ass well on the dry road.... Low noise on speed is the only good part that i consider it.

Bridgestone Potenza Sport 225-45-17- Audi A4 1.8T S line Cabrio 1,500 miles July 25, 2021
I like pure performance. Intrigued by the reviews of other users I must confirm that the expectations have been met. I don't run on the track, but on the road these Bridgestones are unrivaled at the moment, they seem to be unbeatable. They are truly the new benchmark in sports tires.

Rovelo RPX 998 225-45-17- Audi A4 1.8T S Line 5,000 miles June 22, 2021
In 7000 to 8000 kms these tires are completely wore out on an Audi A4 all wheel drive. The rear tires are bald but the fronts are not too bad. Never seen that on an all wheel drive. Usually the fronts wear more. The tires this set replaced went over 100,000kms, so extremely disappointed in the tires and the fact that Audi Royal Oak recommended them. They never went 1 season. My winter tires (different manufacturer) have gone 3 winters for about 40,000kms and I plan to put them back on in the fall. COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE AND WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THESE TIRES TO ANYONE AND WILL NEVER BUY FROM ROVELLO AGAIN.

Avon ZZ5 255-35-19-W Audi A4 1.8T S Line 11,500 miles December 26, 2019
Purchased used Audi A4 with 4x new Avon ZZ5 tyres. Less than 12000 miles later I'm changing all tyres. Whilst there's a good amount of tread left, I've never been satisfied or felt secure with grip in either wet or dry conditions. However, my biggest complaint is tyre noise. Whilst I appreciate a 19” tyre will never provide a quiet, comfortable ride, these tyres are woeful. The tyres make a drone noise similar to a failing bearing and especially in colder conditions. I've been to several garages who have confirmed bearings are good and all suspect the tyres. For me and my fellow passengers sanity these tyres are going. Would I recommend? No. Would I buy myself? Definitely not.

Dunlop SP Sport Maxx GT 255-35-19-W Audi A4 1.8T S Line 14,000 miles January 25, 2018
Good performance tyres, they look very nice. excellent grip on motorways, occasionally skidding on quick start, need to be cautious in wet weather, and a big No No on snow. they are hard and not comfortable in bad city roads. after 14000 miles from brand new car 3mm remains in front and 4mm back

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2 245-40-18-W Audi A4 1.8T S Line 10,000 miles October 12, 2016
I've driven several tyres over the years. My car came with Pirelli Cinturato's. After that I've tried Continental Sport Contact and Dunlop Sport Maxx. But the Goodyear Eagle F1 Assy 2 are the ones for me. I had to get used to the tyres the first week, but after that it was perfect! A very good tyre in both dry and wet conditions.

Maxxis MA Z1 Victra 225-45-17- Audi A4 1.8T S line Cabrio 700 miles August 17, 2016
I drive an A4 S line cabriolet, so noise is a going to be slightly higher in mine than in a full body, but I really did notice that these tyres are very loud, so loud that I was convinced my bearings had gone, there's also a bit of a vibration that comes through the pedals, wheel & gearstick, this may or may not be related, but the tyres definitely do not help.

Grip on the otherhand is great, only driven about 700 miles in them so far, so not sure on the wear.

Kumho Ecsta KU31 235-45-17- Audi A4 1.8T S line Cabrio 7 miles April 29, 2016
kf: purchased these tires at a discount tire for 60$ each, after 5,000 miles went to get my tires rotated at the same discount tire. While there they tell me that the tires in the front are already at the red line in terms of tread life. and the rear tires are also very close to wearing out. at 6,000 miles the tread is even with the tread bars in the rear tires which were rotated to the back, two extremely close call accidents occured, both times at low speeds turning, once during rainfall at 15mph after constant rain for 5 hours in houston ( not flooded or high water) nearly collided into a pickup.

Nexen N8000 245-40-18-W Audi A4 1.8T S Line 35,000 miles December 3, 2015
By far the WORST tyre I have ever bought for my Audi A4 (B8). Both dry AND wet grip is absolutely HORRENDOUS, i feel like my car will skid at anytime, i don't dare to drive above 50km/h on a regular turn, or go above 130km/h on straight roads. It is so bad that i feel it should be banned from ever being sold again due to safety concerns.

Tyres are also noisy and uncomfortable and only gets a lot worse in time.

The only good thing about them is that they last, tread wear is good, oh it's quite cheap, but even if they're provided to me for free next change, i would say HELL NO.

My suggestion is to stick with the well known brands and not crappy Korean ones, they're just not there yet in terms of quality.

Autogrip F106 225-35-19- Audi A4 1.8T S Line 6,000 miles November 15, 2015
Dangerous. Sidewalls of tyres delaminated on all 4 tyres. Off course car was super vague and unstable at motorway speeds and upon removal inner Sidewalls found to be full of air and delaminated away from outer side wall. Grip only as crap as any other budget tyre.
