I found out: www.edo-competition.de

The only thing i worry about:

They use a 8,5x20" Wheel with a 245/35 R20Y Tire in the front and a 10x20" Wheel with a 285/25 R20Y Tire on the back.

As far as i know, on Audi 4WD Cars you need to use the same dimensions on the front and back. ??? :rolleyes:

Actually, I believe the key thing is that the rolling circumference of the tire be the same. I don't know if the example you cite does or not.

Many years ago, MTM had a S4 Audi from 1994 (the 20 valve 5 cyl. turbo engine 4 door, whatever that was called in Europe) that they mounted wider tires in the FRONT than the rear, in an effort to address the cars' tendency to understeer. This car was featured in an issue of the US magazine European Car. So I guess that some smart people have had different tire dimensions front from rear in the past.

TireRack here in the states did at one time give the number of revolutions per mile for the tires they sold. Match the revs per mile or km, and you should be OK.
