Is anyone running all-season tyres on their 8V RS3 - such as Quatrac etc?
Any comments re noise in 'summer' driving?
I was 'surprised' earlier this week re the standard Pirelli tyres ....
Accelerated a bit more briskly from a junction in fairly damp conditions and traction light came on & tyres did scramble a bit for grip .. that said I was in 'dynamic' so believe that may have contributed too.
Either way I am not convinced the Pirellis are that great ... I will eventually change to Michelin or Goodyear.
@45bvtc I admire you, having seen various pictures of your set up with stacked wheels, on their own trolley jacks and the condition of your car.. you indeed have the perfect set up there haha. A set for each car, awesome.
The best I can do is a wooden shelf at the back of the garage to store my spare set of wheels on. (a set I'm lacking at the moment).
Hopefully one day I will of saved enough to be able to buy the best of the best of everything
Thank you, AudiNutta; it all started for me back in the late 60's (about your age now but I didn't have a garage) when I couldn't afford to pay others to do work for me so I started to do my own maintenance and that led me to doing the same for others and I still can and sometimes do though now I don't have to so it's for fun only
It's got you to a good place...
If I told you it got me working professionally in: the Netherlands, China, Japan, and Canada, you'd most likely not believe me...
Wow, that is most impressive!! I am sure you have many stories to tell
