I believe some members need to buff up on the rules. No 30 has some serious offenders on this thread.

Re: MPG and Tyres
Let's face it, you don't buy an RS4 with a 4.2 ltr engine and 414 BPH and think, I best buy some tyres that give me more MPG. Rather MPH.
It's like the lad who bought my C63 AMG off me asked, "what's it like on fuel. My immediate reply was absolutely <beep>.

Re: MPG and Tyres
Hmm interesting thread. Got me thinking, if I drive really slowly, say never over 3krpm, get the engine nice and full of carbon deposits, I could maybe get 35mpg........just like a 2.0l A4. Or how about getting it remapped to optimise fuel economy and put a limiter on, so you can't rev over say 4K?
ITS A 4.2l V8 RS4!!! FFS get it sold to someone who will thrash the arse off it. Like owning a racehorse and using it to keep the grass down in your garden.
........unbelievable

Re: MPG and Tyres
Do you have it as a weekend car or every day car? I know what you're saying and i've had my fair share of 10mpg average but you can't seriously say you drive like a tw@t every time you get in the car?alefustec wrote:Hmm interesting thread.

Yes... and when I don't, I get on with shagging, and drinking, and laughing, and eating. Not once do I think about MPG and which tyres will give me better MPG. What are you, 98 years old?!Jotter wrote:Do you have it as a weekend car or every day car?
