depending on how wide your rims are go for "RainSport" or Rallye 550

(& push the Union Flag button if you you don't sprechen de Deutsch.

I'd go for 195 50 15's if price was an issue or 195 45 15's if not (as I think the slightly lower profile looks better - and is better clearance wise on lowered cars)
If you go on mytyres.co.uk you'll be able to read tyre tests for the various models they sell.
Cheers,
Mark.

They definitely look the dog's doobs (mutz nutz)…I always park my Audi with the toes turned out …. poseur that I can be at times.

Glad you like them

DOn't forget to go easy on 'em for a hundred miles or so…they (like all others) should be "run-in" fairly gently….no ear'olin d'y'ear ??
