Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
Are run-flat tyres needed on the 2011-2018 Audi A6?
Most 2011-2018 Audi A6 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 wet grip should I look for on the Audi A6?
For UK driving conditions, prioritise an EU tyre label wet-grip rating of A or B. Wet grip directly affects braking distance — the gap between A and E ratings can be more than a car length at 50 mph.
Are all-season tyres suitable for the Audi A6?
All-season tyres carrying the 3PMSF snowflake symbol are a sensible choice for UK Audi A6 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 A6?
On a Audi A6, 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.
Can I downsize from larger wheels on my Audi A6?
Some trims of the A6 can be downsized to a smaller OEM-approved wheel, which often gives better ride and lower tyre cost. Audi usually publishes approved alternative sizes — check the handbook before changing wheel size.
