If you are running the standard audi 18's then 235/40/18, check the sponsors on this site as their prices seem pretty good, have heard good things about the VREDESTEIN ULTRA SESSANT and the FALKEN FK 452's.

the difference between a stock 225/45/18 and a 235/40/18 would work out that the 235 would be going at 58.7mph when showing 60 on the dial

however if your standard wheels are like mine and are 205/55/16's and you fitted 235/40/18s the speedo would show 60 but you would be doing 61.3mph.

id personally go for a 215/40/18 as that would work out for me anyway with stock 16s at 59.7mph but by the looks of it there are more 225's to choose from but then your speedo would be reading 60 and you would be doing 60.5mph
