Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
Are all-season tyres suitable for the Audi A8?
All-season tyres carrying the 3PMSF snowflake symbol are a sensible choice for UK Audi A8 drivers who don't want to swap between summer and winter sets. Confirm the size and load rating match your OEM spec.
What tyre size does the 1994-2002 Audi A8 use?
Common UK factory fitments for the 1994-2002 Audi A8 include 225/60 R16, 235/45 R17, 255/40 R18. The exact size depends on the wheel and trim ordered — always confirm on your tyre sidewall before fitting.
What do star/OEM markings mean on Audi A8 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.
Are tyres for the 1994-era Audi A8 still available?
Yes — common sizes for the 1994-2002 Audi A8 remain in production from major UK brands. Some classic-specific sizes may need a specialist supplier, especially for limited or sport variants.
Where should I check the original tyre size for my Audi A8?
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.
