Hello,

What year is the TT or what size tire do you need?

Michelin certainly makes some of the best tires, so does Bridgestone, Continental, and Yokohama. It will depend on the size of tire and of course your driving style. If you post your size or year I can make some suggestions.

Thanks,

Michelin makes a great tire as does Bridgestone. I wasn't thrilled with my last couple of sets of Continentals. I had Sport Contacts on my A4 and Sport Contact 3 on my S4 when I got it. Both suffered from the same issue, after a couple of thousand miles the tire noise started to increase and continued to increase unreasonably through the life of the tire and at around 7500 miles, the tires started to track and tramline a little bit. Not fun. It's been a minute since I ran Michelin or Bridgestone tires, but when I did, both were outstanding. The only gripe I had about my Bridgestones was wear, but that was partly my fault. I autocrossed the car twice a month on those tires so they wore a little faster than they would have had I just been road driving. Right now I'm running a set of Vredestein Ultrac Sessantas and they strike a great balance of ride quality, performance, and being relatively quiet.
