Sorry, I know this gets asked constantly. Looking for tire recommendations (all-season), residing in New Jersey. Recently purchased a 07 A6-4.2 with Michelin Pilot Sports A/S (245/40-ZR18) and will need to replace shortly.

Looking for OE recommendations primarily with a focus on ride/comfort. Also hoping new tires would improve the 'Audi rumble' I'm currently experiencing.

thx to all...

Top choices with focus on ride comfort in this size would include the Bridgestone Turanza Serenity, and Pzero Nero A/S.

the Bridgestone REGNO GR-9000 would be good if you could get your hands on a set but I don't think they are available in the U.S.

The Bridgestone Turanza Serenity would be the next best thing I guess...

the Goodyear Eagle F1 A/S is great...

Just throwing this one out there. Im on my second set of Cooper CS4 (t-rated). I absolutely love these tires, they are by far the best I have ever driven on. Im not a big fan of the unidirectional tire which is why I tried these in the first place. You said ride and comfort are the most important, it is for me to. I have fun once in a while, on/off ramps, twisty roads but nothing serious, mostly normal city/highway driving. I live in Michigan and have never had a problem in the rain or snow. Went about 70k mi on my first set. Best of all they were $380 out the door.

I will be purchasing these for me and my wifes next set of tires.

I also that the comfort is most important. But the best tires are still a compromise. This is because the current materials and manufacturing technologies that provide many desirable tire attributes are directly opposed to other desirable attributes.
