#1 of 1 Please Help! Hidden Costs and Tire Expenses

Hi,
I have several questions if anyone can help. I'm considering purchasing a certified pre-owned 2006 A3 with 30,000 miles on it.
I'm a little confused about the whole tire debate that I've read about on here. I understand that the Pirellis are terrible as far as how quickly they wear down but are the all weather conti pro's considered much more durable and quiet? The A3 I'm looking at has the continentals and I want durability and quiet! How many miles can I expect the continentals to last if they are practically new?
If anyone is familiar with the Certified program (100k) could you please let me know about any hidden costs that I might not expect? Is the additional Audi Care Plan worth it at $750- I believe it covers the maintenance (oil changes and such) up to the 100k.
Thanks so much,
NYC
