LOW PROFILE TIRES ON AUDI A5 CAB ARE NOT DESIGNED ROBUST ENOUGH TO HANDLE ROAD. IT HAS BEEN A NIGHTMARE WITH EXCESSIVE TIRE AND WHEEL DAMAGE. I DO NOT RECOMMEND YOU PURCHASE THIS CAR. AUDI WILL BLAME THE ROADS AND THE DRIVER. THESE ARE NOT NORMAL INCIDENTS. FOUR FLAT TIRES AND THREE DAMAGED WHEELS IN LESS THAN 15 MONTHS. SAFETY BECOMES AN ISSUE WITH EXCESSIVE FAILURE. VIBRATION AND ROAD INSTABILITY WILL OCCUR AS THE EASILY DAMAGED WHEELS CANNOT HANDLE THE ROADS

I'D LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT REGULAR LIGHTS ON THIS (AND MANY OTHER LATEST GERMAN VEHICLES) ARE OVERLY BRIGHT, IN EXCESS OF THE REGULAR HIGH BEAMS, AND BLINDING TO THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC
