I'm thinking of getting some new tyres and I was wondering if it is necessary to to get them in R01?
Thinking of getting a full set of 255/35R19 MICHELIN SP2.

I've got an Audi A4 2013, does R01 only apply to the listings below?

I dont think they will make a difference to be honest, as long as they have the correct weight and speed rating, i believe you will be ok mate.

I had Michelin Pilot Sport 3's on my 18's and they were very good. Don't know how much different they are to the SP2's.

I was thinking of getting a set of Dunlop Sport Maxx RT but the reviews say they are soft tyres and turns to dust after 6000 miles which isn't good at all.

Have only heard good things about SP2, and Super Sports are meant to be superior to SP2 plus 10% durability.
