What brand of tires does the Audi A4 use?
2 Answers
Audi A4 uses Dunlop tires. Functions of tires: Mainly include dry grip, hydroplaning resistance, providing comfort, reducing driving noise, impact resistance, wet grip, load capacity, handling performance, average wear, and mileage. Tire cross-section structure: Can be roughly divided into 4 parts: tread, shoulder, sidewall, and bead. Each part has its own function. The tread mainly contacts the ground, the shoulder and sidewall provide support, and the bead seals with the wheel rim. Tire internal composition: The tire interior consists of multiple layers of different materials, including tread pattern, overlay, steel belt layer, stress-absorbing rubber strip, carcass ply layer, and inner liner.
As an ordinary driver with ten years of experience, I've noticed that the tire brands on the Audi A4 can actually vary quite a bit and aren't necessarily fixed. My A4 came with Michelin tires as original equipment, which felt quite comfortable—quiet on the highway and stable in grip. However, a friend who bought his A4 at the same time had Continental tires, which are more wear-resistant. This depends on the car's configuration, year, and region. For example, the base model might use Bridgestone or Pirelli tires for better cost performance. Over years of driving, I've learned that tires are crucial for safety, affecting braking distance and steering, so it's important to regularly check tire pressure and wear. I recommend checking the vehicle manual or confirming the brand with the dealer when buying a car, and not blindly replacing the original matched tires to avoid affecting overall performance. Of course, for subsequent replacements, it's best to choose reputable shops that match the same specifications and brands.
