They also told me that i was exceeding the load on the tyres and my car was too heavy ...????... but if an a3 is too heavy and these tyres or made for touring cars... what car could they possibly go on ? they had no answer for that,There is no feedback on the tyre at all , no data at all, !!!! ? Mine is a 2.0 TDI a3!
I DONT GET IT AT ALL !
A TDI A3 will be much heavier than a touring car chief, why don't you get some tested tyres on either that or stop trying to rice up your car and slam it on some smaller alloys
