Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
What's the difference between summer and winter tyres for a Audi A8?
Winter tyres use a different rubber compound that stays flexible below 7°C, plus deeper sipes for snow and slush grip. For UK Audi A8 drivers in colder regions, dedicated winters or 3PMSF all-seasons can be worthwhile.
What pressure should the Audi A8 run?
The correct pressure for your Audi A8 is on the placard inside the driver's door frame and in the handbook — not on the tyre itself. Pressure varies by load and trim. Check cold once a month.
How do I find the right tyres for a Audi A8?
Start with the size printed on your existing tyre sidewall — for example 205/55 R16 91V — and use it as your baseline for the Audi A8. Match width, profile, rim size, load index and speed rating before considering brand or pattern.
Do estate and saloon A8 variants share the same tyres?
Saloon and estate variants of the Audi A8 typically share wheel sizes, but estate trims sometimes carry a higher load index for cargo capacity. Check the placard on your specific car.
Is wheel alignment important after fitting new A8 tyres?
Yes — a wheel alignment check after fitting new tyres on the Audi A8 preserves tread life and handling. Most UK fitters offer a quick alignment check; major adjustments (camber/caster) require a four-wheel laser machine.
