I just bought these rims for my B7 S4:

I live in IL so it snows for about 2-3 months in the winter. What type of tires do you guys recommend? Should I get all season tires or what? Which specific tire models do you think would be best?

I'm looking to get some decent tires that are cheap in price.

Thanks.

I wouldnt recommend all seasons. I live here as well and I use winter tires on my stock rims for the winter and use my aftermarket ones the rest of the time.

 

Cheap tires for 19,s [sm=signs003.gif]

 

it really depends where you live, do you plan to drive in the winter with them? maybe your lucky enough to not have winter in that case its not a big deal

shop around at online stores to give you an idea, but I agree 19" will not be cheap

 

those are some nice wheels by the way! I wouldnt go with all seasons, Put something sticky on those rims, then make the stockers your winter rims.

 

I just got a set of nitto nt555's and their great for the summer, wouldnt even try driving in the snow. like someone eles said use your stock wheels for the 2-3 months their is snow on the ground.

 

If your really drive in snow & ice, you should use snow tires. If you just drive on cleared roads, A/S tires will be fine.

My new fav is the Yokohama AVID S4, but they are not cheap, but really, really good!

 

IMO get a cheap set of smaller rims to run in the winter on snow tires.... you shouldnt be using your nice rims in the winter, and allseasons suck...

 

Thanks for your replies. I decided to buy the Toyo Proxes T1r tires.

 

good choice... the proxes are a nice tire for their price.
