I've got stock RS6 wheels and need some inexpensive tires.

Would these 225/60R18 Blizzak WS70 fit?

They seem to be the least expensive I can find.

Depending on tire insurance...

Falkens or Hankooks. Just got Falkens on my TT, no idea yet what i think but were great price. Hankooks are rated well and near as cheap as it gets too.

i was able to get a good deal on a set of hankook icebear. They were stock size 255 40 18 and they were 169 each plus around 70 bucks shipping to mn. They work great. After a couple snow storms including today, i can't believe the amount of grip. Thumbs up for me.

Bridgestone Blizzak WS60, but mine are currently 3 years ago and pretty worn down. I'm worried they are not going to be any good this winter.
