Tires and rims
General information
The combination of a rim and tire
will be referred to as a wheel in
this Owner’s Manual. If only one
of the components is referred to,
then the term tire or rim will be
used.
>Check your tires regularly for
damage, such as punctures,
cuts, cracks, and bulges. Re-
move foreign objects from the
tire tread.
>If driving over curbs or similar
obstacles, drive slowly and ap-
proach the curb at an angle.
>Have faulty tires or rims re-
placed immediately.
>Protect your tires from oil,
grease, and fuel.
>Mark tires before removing
them so that the same running
direction can be maintained if
they are reinstalled.
»Lay tires flat when storing and
store them in a cool, dry loca-
tion with as little exposure to
light as possible.

ZA WARNING
—Never drive faster than the
maximum permitted speed for
your tires. This could cause
the tires to heat up too much.
This increases the risk of an
accident because it can cause
the tire to burst.
—Always adapt your driving to
the road and traffic condi-
tions. Drive carefully and re-
duce your speed on icy or slip-
pery roads. Even winter tires
can lose traction on black ice.
® Note
—Please note that summer and
winter tires are designed for
the conditions that are typical
in those seasons. Audi recom-
mends winter tires during the
winter months. Low tempera-
tures significantly decrease
the elasticity of summer tires,
which affects traction and
braking ability. If summer
tires are used in very cold
temperatures, cracks can form
on the tread bars, resulting in
permanent tire damage that
can cause loud driving noise
and unbalanced tires.
