How do I know when it’s time for new tires?

Even the best tires get old. Wear is one of the easiest visual cues to show when a tire has expired.

Tires are worn out when their tread depth approaches 2/32nds. To measure it, you can use a special gauge or place a quarter coin upside down in the tread. If you can see the top of Washington’s head, the tire needs replacing. If you have any questions, contact your local Audi Dealer.

Winter Wheels & Tires

Designed for enhanced handling so you can better handle winter driving. When season-long temperatures drop below 45⁰F, it can affect your tire performance. That’s why Audi Original Tires are designed to remain pliable at temperatures well under that threshold. Plus, they’re performance-matched for your Audi, so when you choose an Audi Winter Wheel & Tire Package, it can help you meet the challenges of winter driving and help you drive with greater confidence.¹

¹ When driving during cold, snowy or icy weather conditions, ensure that your vehicle is equipped with appropriate all-season or winter weather tires. Even with appropriate tires, you must always drive in a manner appropriate for the weather, visibility and road conditions.
