What is the tire size of the A4L?
2 Answers
The tire size of the A4L is 225/50R17 and 245/40R18. The A4L is equipped with five-spoke sporty aluminum alloy wheels and higher-performance Michelin sport tires. For the spare tire, it uses a Hankook dedicated spare tire. The A4L model is fitted with Michelin tires and Goodyear's EXCELLENCE series tires. The rear design of the A4L features smooth lines, with a slightly raised trunk lid and polygonal taillights extending inward on both sides. It is equipped with two new green-efficient engines, both utilizing FSI fuel direct injection technology and the AVS Audi valve lift system.
The standard tire size for the A4L is typically 225/50 R17, as seen on my base model. The 225 represents the tire width of 225 millimeters, 50 is the aspect ratio percentage meaning the tire height is 50% of the width, and R17 indicates compatibility with 17-inch rims. This size works well—comfortable for city commuting without excessive fuel consumption, with a higher aspect ratio providing good shock absorption and less bumpiness on rough roads. It's advisable not to alter the size arbitrarily, as the factory-matched suspension system ensures safety. Regularly check tire pressure, maintaining it around 2.5 bar to avoid premature wear. Higher trim models may upgrade to 245/40 R18 or even 19-inch tires for a sportier feel, though comfort is slightly compromised. When replacing tires, prioritize the same size, and consider switching tread patterns like all-season or winter tires seasonally to enhance driving safety.
