Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
Are all-season tyres suitable for the Audi A3?
All-season tyres carrying the 3PMSF snowflake symbol are a sensible choice for UK Audi A3 drivers who don't want to swap between summer and winter sets. Confirm the size and load rating match your OEM spec.
Are premium-brand tyres worth it on a Audi A3?
On a Audi A3, premium tyre brands (Michelin, Continental, Bridgestone, Pirelli, Goodyear) typically deliver longer tread life, better wet grip and quieter rolling. The cost difference is usually recouped over the tyre's life.
Where should I check the original tyre size for my Audi A3?
Look in three places: (1) the sidewall of the existing tyre, (2) the placard inside the driver's door frame, and (3) the vehicle handbook. The driver's door placard is the official OEM specification, and the sidewall confirms what's fitted now.
Are run-flat tyres needed on the 2020-present Audi A3?
Most 2020-present Audi A3 cars were supplied with conventional tyres and a spare or repair kit. Only fit run-flats if your specific car was originally specified with them and has tyre pressure monitoring.
What do star/OEM markings mean on Audi A3 tyres?
Audi approves specific tyres for many of its models, marked with a star (BMW), MO (Mercedes), AO (Audi), J (Jaguar) or similar. OEM-marked tyres are tuned for that car's suspension and don't always come from the major brand-name fitter as a stock item — they may need to be ordered.
