Tires OEM Audi or Goodyear

The short answer is, No. This sub is an echo chamber. It skews very much to the purist side of racing. Reality - The racing is as good as it has been for a long time. The championship race was very encouraging. NASCAR and Goodyear seem to have found the correct tire combo for Phoenix which should help out Gateway and New Hampshire. That was the best Phoenix race we've had in a very long time from a racing standpoint. The Playoffs aren't as unpopular as this sub makes it out to be. Those who are happy are typically not the ones complaining about things on Twitter/forums/Reddit

The tires are good, BTW. I had them on my old car and was going in circles around others who apparently cheaped out on their tires. Like, had to help get a 4WD pick-up truck out of a ditch at one point.

I ran some good year winter tires for 8 winters before without issue.

Goodyear Ultragrip was good on RWD 535d, tuned

So glad I made the move. The scorpions were awful and loud. Very happy with our GYs and they still look more like an AT but we have definitely had an efficiency increase

I moved to the Goodyear Wrangler Territory ATs. They're a smidge smaller at 33in (stock is 34in), and they are NOT an LT tire. There is a Rivian specific model of this tire, so be specific when ordering. They're significantly quieter on pavement, but still have the AT look. They also maintain the 3PMS rating (which is why I wanted to stay with an AT). I go off-roading a few times a year, and will be testing these off pavement in a few weeks. Most users report good to excellent traction as compared to stockers. Effeciency is largely the same. Environmental factors and angle of your right foot have a bigger impact on range than the tire swap as best I can tell.

BF Goodrich on my truck, since I need to take it off the pavement a lot, but Goodyear on my regular car. Boy I hope my tire shop remembers what's on my car... they're freakin incredible in the snow, better than my 4x4 truck lol

Cc2 will last way longer than any other competitor. Goodyear weather ready is great for first 20k miles then it will become trash.

They gave me a new pilot and I immediately noticed these tires were not as smooth, comfortable or quiet as the CC2s I had been used to so for me I would say yes. These are just poor quality tires.

The one I personally actively avoid is Goodyear. I've only ever had one decent set of them and the rest have dry rotted faster than any other set I've bought. Their performance wasn't awful but even burning through a set of tires every 24-30mos, I shouldn't be starting to worry at 18mos when the tires are sporting lots of visible dry rot.
