Bridgestone Potenza

Today he screwed the summer tires to my car. I hadn’t seen the wheels so far, since the car was delivered directly with the winter bikes in Ingolstadt on 30.11.. The wheels are really nice (18″ 5-star rim), but to my horror there are Bridgestone Potenza on it. Did someone drive them last summer in size (245 to 18″? I had the Potenza 2002 and 2003 as 17″ on my pass and cursed them. I already noticed during the safety training the I barely got the car under control in wet weather and with these tires I regularly “wound up” in rain on the track. Also the brake path in wet weather seemed pretty bad to me. (The two following A4s also had 17″ wheels each but I never had a feeling of uncertainty in wet weather.) In addition, the Potenza had run quite fast, 1.5 summers and away they were…Contis always kept good 2 summers… So can someone me my negative preset and convince me that these tires have now become significantly better in the last few years or this size is better….? By the way: I forgot to take a litre of oil with the dealer today and now have to catch up on the tank….Shell Helix Ultra Extra 5W30 50400 / 50700….one litre for 8,80 €. I didn’t want to buy it at first because I never paid less than 20,00 € per litre in a single container for it…5 liters should cost there 39,90. That it is the oil to the I know there is price on the internet, but I have never seen it on a tank (in the last holiday in Ösi-Land the Leikermoser has taken a smooth 27 € for it…. my dealer also takes at least 20,00…. ) 11,20 € saved…should I put over for new tires maybe already
