Best Tyres for the Audi A6, 3.2L, Quattro

Came fitted on the front of a used A6. They made so much road noise I thought both front wheel bearings needed replacing. In dry corners they felt like they rolled onto the sidewall and would snap into understeer without warning. In the wet they were terrible. Overall the front of the car never felt connected and would constantly fidget over any slight imperfection. There are some respectful budget tyres out there, but these were just terrible.

Have these fitted to an A6 quattro. The car sees a mix of motorway cruising and the odd B road blast. I normally go for Michelin Pilot Sports but found they only really shine in hot dry conditions, in which they are superb, but I haven't been a huge fan of them in colder wet conditions, typical to our British climate.
While the Bridgestones don't feel as responsive as Pilot Sports, they feel more stable in the wet, are quieter and I'm averaging 2mpg more. Not a lot but every gain is welcomed in a petrol V6. The Bridgestones are more comfortable with noticeably more dampening over rough surfaces and while they don't feel as responsive as the Michelins, the grip is there and you'll be sliding out of the seat long before losing grip in a corner.
Overall these are excellent tyres and much more suited to a big German saloon to eat up the miles than the usual performance tyres people default to. The car feels sure footed even in heavy downpours on the motorway yet happy to be thrown down a twisty B road.

Snow in Sweden and below 0C, replaced my old worn down studded Hakkapelitta. Must say im impressed by the grip of the tyres in snowy conditions so far. A bit noisy in my opinion but performs very well overall. I recommend them.

no words, never had better tyres than these......outstanding!!!!!

Still need to spend time with these tyres. But so far very happy. Very tight turn in responsive to input without feeling like driving on extreme low profiles.

Good tire. Replaced ContiSportContact2. Falkens are not as responsive as Conti's. There is a slight hesitation on turn-in before they respond but once they turn there is plenty of grip. The Conti's were razor sharp on turn-in. Wet grip is very good as well. Wear is better than the Conti's (wear on Conti's were horrible). The Falkens ride reasonably comfortable and feeback is pretty good. Overall, a good tire for the money and you will not be disappointed, however, I like a little more steering response. I'm looking for new tires and will probably try the new Falken 453.
