What brand of tires does Audi use?
1 Answers
Audi equips different models and configurations with various tire brands, primarily including Goodyear, Michelin, Dunlop, and Hankook. Tire sizes include 245/35R19, 245/40R18, and 225/45R17. Among them, the American Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company was founded in 1898 and has over a century of history. Goodyear is the world's largest tire manufacturing company, headquartered in Akron, Ohio, USA. The company primarily produces tires, engineered rubber products, and chemical products in over 90 factories across 28 countries. Today, Goodyear employs more than 80,000 people worldwide. For Audi tires during daily use, pay attention to the following points: Regularly inspect the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. Due to driving wear, the tread grooves gradually become shallow. If the tread wears out, it will lose its drainage and anti-slip functions, significantly reducing the car's performance. Small cracks may pose a hidden danger of tire blowouts during high-speed driving. Additionally, promptly remove pebbles from the grooves. Park on level ground whenever possible. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials that may deteriorate rubber. After parking, the driver should not turn the steering wheel, as this accelerates tire wear. Do not splash water to cool down. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires are prone to overheating, and the air pressure may increase. In such cases, stop to allow the tires to cool naturally. Avoid releasing air to reduce pressure or splashing water to cool down, as this may cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Minimize frequent use of brakes and hard braking to prevent accelerated tread wear caused by dragging between the tires and the ground.
