I had Continental contact on our A6 4.2 and had the same issue with inside tire wear, car did not have air suspension. Our new A8L 2007 has Pirelli P6 and they suck, I am replaceing them next week with Michelin (our A6 got new Pirelli P6) when the tire problem occured and they sucked very noisy.

Default Pirelli P6 Problems

I own a 2006 Audi A8L and my front Pirelli P6 tires are chopped up on the edges. They look as if they went through a grinder. The chap at Kal Tire where I had my Haukepelittas put on for the winter said he had never seen such damage before. He also couldn't hazard a guess as to what might have caused it. Does anyone have any ideas?

Default Pirelli Tires

My Pirellis are cut on the outside edges almost as if they had been stiped. Are Pirelli taking any responsibility for these strange wearing patterns.
