You probably can -- yet, you may want to do some homework and check out (when you need new tires) Ultra High Performance All Season tires. They are much less of a compromise, probably will last longer and be quieter than the Max performance Summer Tires that are OEM equip. on S4's.
 
Just a thought. . . .

I agree.. most people will be better served with all-seasons... especially on a 4-season AWD car.. than getting max summer performance rubber..
 
As far as the winter Goodyears that I have.. They don't even show them anymore on their website.. So, maybe they have been discontinued.. I've only had them just over a year, though..
 
Anyone looking for winter tires of any type at this late date... are probably out of luck.. most sizes are sold out by now...

What make tire would you suggest? I've had a good experience with the Continental Extreme Contact series on my previous A6. They handled well in snow and dry pavement without giving up too much in the summer. They were also extremely quiet compared to my previous Pirelli's. The bad thing is that they wore quickly.

In high performance all-seasons... the consensus picks seem to be Michelin Pilot Sport A/S and Pirelli P-Zero Nero M&S...
 
Both should wear a little better and be a little quieter than your ContiExtremeContacts.... Plus, handle marginally better..
 
At a price premium, of course... what else is new?

Hi geevee36 - you'll want to check out our ongoing Audi S4 discussion. There is lots of information there already and it's probably the best place to ask questions on that order.
 
Here we are specifically comparing the S4 to the M3 so it's not really the best resource for what you are asking.
 
Good luck.

Money factor on M3 lease by giovanni1
Feb 25, 2005 (4:31 pm)

Hi all,
 
I just got quoted a money factor of .00255 for a 3yr/15k lease on a 05 M3, the money factor seems kinda high as I believe that works out to about 6%. Thoughts?
