225/50 16's on an A4 sport?

Hi everyone,

I'm ready to pull the trigger and order some all season tires for the winter. Will 225/50/16's work on an a4 with sport suspension. I know Don P's done this, but has anybody else tried? any problems?

TIA!

Well,

I was going to get the yokahama avs, but tirerack was out of them and i need them NOW. So, i went with dunlop sp4000's. they're $90 each in that size and seem to be a good compromise between all-weather and fun to drive. CR just rated the Michelin Arctic Alpin very well as an A/W tire, but i couldn't find them anywhere.

HTH,

Jim
