-The tire must flex more if the
tire pressure is too low or if
the vehicle speed or load are
too high. This heats the tire up
too much. This increases the
risk of an accident because it
can cause the tire to burst and
result in loss of vehicle con­
trol.
-Incorrect tire pressure in­ creases tire wear and has a
Tire pressure table
Please note that the information
contained in the following table
was correct at the time of print­
ing, and the information is sub­
ject to change. If there are differ­
ences between this information
and the tire pressures specified
on the label on the driver's side B­

@ Note
Replace lost valve caps to re­
duce the risk of damage to the
tire valves.
@ For the sake of the environment
Tire pressure that is too low in­ creases fuel consumption.
Make sure that the tire designa­
tion on your tire matches the des­
ignation on the tire pressure label
and the tire pressure table.

A WARNING
Using incorrect snow chains or installing snow
chains incorrectly can result in loss of vehicle
control, which increases the risk of an acci­
dent.
@ Note
Snow chains can damage the rims/wheel cov­
ers* if the chains come into direct contact
with them. Remove the wheel covers* first .
Use coated snow chains.
(D Tips
When using snow chains, it may be useful to
switch on sport mode
¢page 149.
Low-profile tires
App lies to: ve hicles with low -profi le tires
Compared to other tire/rim combinations, low­
profile tires offer a wider tread surface and a
la rger r im diameter with shorter tire sidewalls.
This results in an agile driving style. However, it
may reduce the level of comfort and increase
road noise when driving on roads in poor condi­
tion.
L ow -profile tires can become damaged more
quickly than standard tires when driving over
large bumps, potholes, manhole
covers, and
curbs. Therefore, it is particularly important to
maintain the correct tire
pressure¢ page 341.
To reduce the risk of damage to the tires and rims, drive very carefully on poor roads.
Check your wheels regularly
every 2,000 mi
(3,000 km) for damage. For example, check for
bulges/cracks on the tires or deformations/
cracks on the rims.
After a heavy impact or damage, have the tires
and rims inspected or replaced immediately by
an authorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
Service Facility .
L ow -profile tires can wear out faster than stand­
ard tires.
Wheels
Uniform tire quality grading
- Tread wear
- Traction AA ABC
- Temperature ABC
Quality grades can be found where applicable on
the tire side wall between tread shoulder and
maximum section width
¢ page 331, fig. 275.
For example: Tread wear 200 , Traction AA, Tem­
perature
A.
All passenger car tires must conform to Federal
Safety Requirements in addition to these grades.
Tread wear
The tread wear grade is a comparative rating
based on the wear rate of the tire when tested
under controlled cond it ion s on a specified
gov­
ernment test course.
For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one
and one half (1 1/2) times as well on the govern­
ment course as a tire graded 100.
The relative performance of tires depends upon
the actual conditions of their use, however, and
may depart significantly from the norm due to
variations in driv ing habits, service practices and
differences in road characteristics and climate.
Traction
The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are
AA , A, Band
C. Those grades represent the tire's
ability to stop on wet pavement as measured un­
der controlled conditions on specified govern­
ment test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire
marked C may have poor traction performance
¢,& .
Temperature
The temperature grades are A (the highest), B,
and C, representing the tire's resistance to the
generation of heat and its ability to dissipate
heat when tested under controlled conditions on
a specified indoor laboratory test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause the mate­
rial of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life,
and excessive temperature can lead to sudden
tire
failure ¢,& .

A WARNING
-The tire pressure monitoring system assists
the driver in monitoring tire pressures . The
driver is responsible for having the tires in­
flated to the correct pressure.
- Do not change the tire pressure when the
temperature of the tire is extremely high.
This could result in serious damage to the
tire and even cause the tire to burst, in­
creasing the risk of an accident.
- A tire with low pressure flexes more. This
heats the tire up too much. This could cause
the tread to separate and even cause the
tire to burst, increasing the risk of an acci­
dent.
- The tire pressure monitoring system does
not warn about damage or defects in the
tire construction that could cause the tire to burst, for example . Inspect your tires regu­
larly .
(D Tips
-If tires are replaced, the sensors/valves do
not need to be removed or replaced. Just re­
placed the valve stem and, if necessary, the
valve and the wheel electronics. If you have
questions, see an authorized Audi dealer or
authorized Audi Service Facility .
- An incorrect display or a malfunction in the
tire pressure monitoring system can occur
after using the tire mobility kit . Have the
sensors replaced by an authorized Audi
dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility.
- For an explanation on conformity with the
FCC regulations in the United States and the
Industry Canada regulations, see
r=;,page 386.

compared to the specified tire pressure .
The specified tire pressure is the last tire pres­
sure that was stored
r=;, page 352.
Note that the tire pressure also depends on the
temperature of the tire. The tire pressure in ­
creases as the engine becomes warmer while
driving.
