Fitted a full set to mine, pleased so far but haven't pushed them too hard yet.

Was thinking of these as well as they seem well priced . Have heard rumours that they wear quickly so would be interested to hear people's opinions?

are any of you running 275/30 or standard fit tyre as there's only £7 difference for the 275/30

Thinking of replacing michelin pilot sport 3 with the rainsport. Reviews online suggest wet grip is amazing but soft sidewall and wear very quickly. Are massively cheaper than any other brand name so suppose the increase wear would balance out the cheaper price. Would appreciate anyone's experience of these on an rs4.

rainsports have a VERY soft sidewall-grip is good-excellent in wet,but feedback isnt the best in dry
grab a loose tyre and have a prod about-they are akin to a dedicated snow/ice tyre in sidewall construction
