These tyres under the name Potenza S-01 RFD (reinforced) I had installed on the Evo as I bought them. They are called S-01 on the Japanese market. On a dry sensation, even better than the S-02. Wet much worse. Docial colleague additional transverse grooves and firmly improved. I drove on the tyre of a zero pressure of more than 40km (with speed up to 130km / h) and do not hurt or burn August (even though it is not a tyre "run-flat").

These tyres look very good but I think Audis of this generation had a reputation for hard and uncomfortable suspension with poor road noise. I think this is down to the hard side walls of these tyres more than anything. They are hard wearing with good traction from a start and in corners. My car loves them for handling but they are a tad noisy. I suspect that Continental is the way to go ultimately. For the price they are excellent. The look of these tyres also returns the car to its factory appearance which is great.

Auto a few times I could get my little slip in the wet ... the tyre is exemplary in this regard. In dry - very well. For me, the front pair is suitable for exchange after driving 18k km ... what I think is the result of very poor! Tyres and mułowate quite loud (high rolling resistance).

Superb grip, especially in the dry, but redeemed lack of comfort.
