t
| We recommend that you only use tyres which are older than 6 years in emergencies and make sure you then drive with great caution. |
t
| When new tyres are fitted, the spare tyre may also be used if it is in perfect condition and not more than 6 years old. The age of the tyre has a great influence on the high-speed capability of the tyre. It is possible to combine a spare tyre which is several years old with new tyres, however, this can have an adverse influence on car handling. |
t
| Tyres are constantly being further developed, which can lead, for example, to slight changes in the rubber compound, even if the tyres are of the same make, size and tread pattern. |
t
| For reasons of safety, tyres of the same make and with the same tread pattern should be mounted on one axle. All Audi vehicles are factory-fitted with four identical tyres and wheels. |
t
| Vehicles with four-wheel drive must always be equipped with four wheels with tyres of the same size, construction, tread pattern and make. |
