        Went back to Audi OEM tire recommendation after trying several other brands due to road noise and vibration. Continental control contact sport tires work best on my hybrid vehicle and still have great traction without sacrificing fuel economy and cabin comfort.

            I was happy with OEM continentals, but these are definitely an upgrade and great price.
