Audi Q5 uses Excellence series tires as original equipment. Tires are circular elastic rubber products assembled on various vehicles or machinery to roll on the ground, usually mounted on metal rims. They support the vehicle body, cushion external impacts, achieve contact with the road surface, and ensure the vehicle's driving performance. The Audi Q5 is a 5-door, 5-seat mid-size SUV under FAW-Volkswagen, with body dimensions of 4753mm in length, 1893mm in width, and 1659mm in height, a wheelbase of 2908mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 73 liters. The Audi Q5 is equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 169 kW at 4300 to 6000 rpm and a maximum torque at 1500 to 4200 rpm. Both front and rear suspensions adopt a five-link independent suspension system.
As a long-time Audi Q5 owner, the factory-fitted tires are typically Michelin Primacy or Bridgestone Dueler series, depending on the model year. My car is equipped with 235/55 R19 Michelin tires, which provide a quiet and comfortable ride with strong high-speed grip. Audi chooses these brands to balance performance and safety, ensuring stable braking on mountain roads. For daily maintenance, it's recommended to check tire pressure monthly and keep it at 2.4-2.6 bar, which can save fuel and extend tire life by 3-4 years. If the tread wears below 1.6mm, replace them promptly to avoid skidding in wet conditions. Remember, using factory-matched tires ensures suspension system harmony; switching to off-brand tires may increase bumpiness and affect driving. Regular maintenance is a wise choice.
