Tire size question (probably not what you think)
this may seem like a semi-dumb question, but i have a 2001 a4 quattro with 235-45-17 on all 4 corners. the fronts are due for replacement and i have the opportunity to get a pair of new michelin pilot sports on the cheap, but they are 225-45-17. my question is, with the 235's in the rear, if i put 225's up front, will it **** off the Quattro system enough to cause damage? or will such a small change in tire size be okay to run?
thanks in advance

I wouldn't do it. Maybe for a couple miles but that's it. The width doesn't matter but when the width changes and the aspect ratio is the same that means you're changing the height of the tire. Not good

Got the 235's from a friend. Not sure where he got them. But they were cheap and I needed to get my yoko ice guards off. I've actually had like 3 sets of 235's on this car. Not on purpose but I like them for what it's worth.
