Ti re rotation
Rotating the tires regularly is rec-
ommended to ensure the tires
wear evenly. To rotate the t ires,
install the tires from the rear axle
on the front axle and vice versa.
This will allow the tires to have
approximately the same length of
service life.
For unidirectional tires , make
sure the tires are installed accord-
ing to the running direction indi-
cated on the tire sidewall
¢page 231.
Hidden damage
Damage to tires and rims can of-
ten occur in locations that are
hidden. Unusual vibrations in the
vehicle or pulling to one side may
indicate that there is tire damage.
Reduce your speed immediately.
Check the tires for damage. If no
damage is visible from the out-
side, drive slowly and carefully to
the nearest authorized Audi deal-
er or authorized Audi Service Fa-
cility to have the vehicle inspect-
ed.

tires can reduce driving safety.
This can increase the risk of an
accident because it has a nega-
tive effect on handling, driving
through curves, and braking,
and because it increases the
risk of hydroplaning when driv-
ing through deep puddles.
