Help On Tire Opinions...
OK, I am getting ready to swap the coilovers on my Audi for a new setup and I am looking for new tires for it. The car is a daily driver, and gets driven about 100 miles a day. It's not a race car and is pretty heavy, so I am looking for a good passenger tire that is available in a 225 40 18 and will best suit my needs on a daily.
Thanks in advance.

No performance or visual expectations from the tire?
EDIT: I've run GS-D3s and Kuhmo MXs in that size. I didn't like the GS-D3 because they had issues with cracking the sidewalls leaving a sweet blister. No complaints from the Kuhmos though.

Mine didn't last much past 8k on the R32 and it wasn't lowered or anything (no camber wear).

Well I read some reviews and talked to the people at tire rack and they recommend the Bridgestone RE960AS pole positions. Anyone used these?
The car is lowered about 2.5 inches on Koni full coilovers if it makes a difference.
