Best All Season Tires

BostonRich · 04-02-2012, 10:36 AM

Looking for any advice on the best all season tires to put on my (Boston driven) 2004 Audi A4 cabriolet, tire size P235/45R17. I have Pirelli P6 now - and my only complaint is they wear out too fast (30-35K). would like my new tires to last 60K+
doing some research, I have come up with Continental ContiProContact. Though spec wise they sound good - i have read some bad reviews. Any thoughts on Continental or an alternative would be great.

Wow!!! 60K+??? I think you are going to have a tough time with that. I don't think I've ever gotten more than 45-50K with any tires on any cars ever, let alone on a performance AWD.

i think you are right

the contiprocontact has a "Treadlife Warranty: 6 yrs / 60K mi (H rated)" -- but i am starting to realize that these treadlife warranties are not based in reality. so basically just looking for a good long lasting (as much as i can get out of it) tire.

Michelin tires are the best, all are Radial for all season driving, I go to BJ shopping club. I have a coupon if you need it for a discount. Michelin tires are a bit more expensive than others, but they will last you a long time with out any problems.
