Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
What should Audi A6 drivers know about UK potholes?
UK road conditions are tough on tyres. Check sidewall bulges, cuts and tread depth regularly — especially on the inside edge, which often wears unevenly. A 20p coin gives a quick legal-tread check.
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.
The A6 uses 19" or larger wheels — what should I know?
Larger wheels mean lower-profile tyres with shorter sidewalls — that means firmer ride, more pothole sensitivity and shorter tyre life on UK roads. Premium tyres usually repay the extra cost on cars with 19"+ wheels.
What do star/OEM markings mean on Audi A6 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.
What tyre size does the 2011-2018 Audi A6 use?
Common UK factory fitments for the 2011-2018 Audi A6 include 225/60 R16, 225/55 R17, 245/45 R18, 255/40 R19. The exact size depends on the wheel and trim ordered — always confirm on your tyre sidewall before fitting.
