Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
The RS 4 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 RS 4 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.
How long should tyres last on the 2012-2015 Audi RS 4?
Typical UK tread life on the Audi RS 4 is around 20,000-40,000 miles depending on tyre brand, road conditions and driving style. Heavier trims tend to wear faster.
What speed rating is required for the 2012-2015 Audi RS 4?
Performance variants of the Audi RS 4 typically require a Y-rated (300 km/h) or W-rated (270 km/h) tyre. Match or exceed the original speed rating shown on your sidewall — fitting a lower-rated tyre can affect handling and may be illegal on certain models.
What should Audi RS 4 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.
