Wheels
Tyres and rims
General notes
� Inspect the tyres regularly for damage (cuts,
cracks or blisters, etc.). Remove any foreign
bodies embedded in the treads.
� If you have to drive over a kerb or similar obsta­
cle, drive very slowly and as near as possible at
a right angle to the kerb.
� Damaged rims or tyres must be replaced imme­
diately.
� Keep grease, oil and fuel off the tyres.
� Mark
the wheels before taking them off so that
they rotate in the same direction when refitted.
� When removed, the wheels should be stored
flat in a cool, dry and preferably dark place.
CD CAUTION
- Please note that summer and winter tyres
are optimised for the prevailing road condi­
tions at different times of year. We recom­
mend that you use winter tyres during the
winter months. At low temperatures, sum­
mer tyres lose their elasticity and grip, and
braking performance also suffers as a re­
sult. Cracks can form in the tread block on
summer tyres if they are used at very cold
temperatures, and this can cause perma­
nent damage to the tyres. An increase in
rolling noise and tyre imbalance may result
from this damage.
- Machined, polished or chrome-plated rims
must not be used in winter conditions. The
process used to manufacture these types of
wheel rim does not provide adequate sur­
face protection against corrosion, and the
rims can be permanently damaged by road
salt or similar.
New wheels or tyres
It is best to have all servicing of wheels and tyres
performed by a qualified workshop, since they
l l
COC = Certificate of conformity
254 have
the necessary special tools and replacement
parts in addition to trained personnel.
� New tyres do not yet give maximum grip. When
driving with new tyres, drive at moderate
speeds and be especially careful during the first
500 km.
� All four wheels must be fitted with tyres of the
same type, size (rolling circumference) and
preferably the same tread pattern.
� Tyres should be replaced in pairs and not indi­
vidually (i.e. both front tyres or both rear tyres
together).
� We recommend the use of Audi Genuine Tyres.
If you wish to use other tyres, please note that
the actual size can differ from the nominal size
marked on the tyre ¢ A .
� If you wish to purchase a different combination
of rims and tyres than the ones fitted on the ve­
hicle during production, it is advisable to con­
sult a qualified workshop beforehand ¢ A.
The sizes of the rims and tyres approved for your
vehicle are listed in the vehicle's documents (e.g.
EC Certificate of Conformity or COC document l)).
The vehicle documents vary depending on the
country in which the vehicle is registered.
If the spare wheel* is not the same type as the
tyres fitted on the car (for example if the car has
winter tyres or wide-section tyres) you should on­
ly use the spare wheel* if a puncture occurs, and
then only for a short period of time. In this case,
please drive with extra care. Refit a normal road
wheel as soon as possible.
On vehicles with four-wheel drive, all four wheels
must always be fitted with tyres of the same
type, make and tread pattern, as the driveline
could otherwise be damaged by variations in the
wheel speeds. For the same reason, only use a
spare wheel* which has the same rolling circum­
ference as the normal road wheels.
Manufacturing date
The manufacturing date is indicated on the tyre
sidewall (possibly only on the inner side of the
wheel): ..,.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Wheels
On tyres with a directional tread pattern, note
the direction of rotation indicated on the sidewall
¢page 275.
Concealed damage
Damage to tyres and rims is often not readily visi­
ble. If you notice unusual vibrations or the car
pulling to one side, this may indicate that one of
the tyres is damaged. Reduce your speed imme­
diately. Inspect the tyres for damage. If no exter­
nal damage is visible, drive slowly and carefully
to the nearest qualified workshop and have the
car inspected.
A WARNING
Insufficient tread depth or different tread
depths on different wheels reduce safety. This
is particularly evident in vehicle handling,
when there is a risk of aquaplaning in deep
puddles of water and when driving through
corners. Braking is also adversely affected -
risk of accident!

The correct inflation pressures for tyres fitted at
the factory and for the compact temporary spare
wheel* are specified on a sticker. The sticker
¢Fig. 222 is on the end face of the driver's door.

If you intend to drive the vehicle with a partial
load, adjust the tyre pressures to the specified
setting (D. Should you wish to drive with a full
load, you must increase the tyre pressure to the
specified maximum@ ¢&_.
Checking / adjusting the tyre pressures
"' Check the tyre pressures at least once a month
and, in addition, before starting a long journey.
.. The tyre pressures should only be checked
when the tyres are cold. The slightly raised
pressures of warm tyres must not be reduced.
.. Refer to the sticker ¢ Fig. 222 for the correct
tyre pressures according to the load the vehicle
is carrying.
.. If necessary, adjust the tyre pressure.
.. Vehicles with tyre pressure loss indicator* or
tyre pressure monitoring system*: Store the
new tyre pressures in the infotainment system
¢page 259.
"' Check the pressure of the spare wheel* /com­
pact temporary spare wheel*. Keep the spare
tyre inflated to the highest pressure approved
for the tyre.
A WARNING
Always adjust the tyre pressures to match
your driving style and the load the vehicle is
carrying.
- Excessive loads can cause you to lose control
of the vehicle -risk of accident!
- Under-inflated tyres flex more and can over­
heat at high speeds or when the vehicle is
carrying a heavy load. This could cause a
tyre blow-out and you could lose control of
the vehicle -risk of accident!
- Incorrect tyre pressures increase tyre wear
and adversely affect vehicle braking and
handling -risk of accident!
CD CAUTION
Replace any lost valve caps to prevent dam­
age to the tyre valves.
