Frequently Asked Questions
- What size tires does a Audi Q5 use?
- The Audi Q5 tire size varies by trim level and model year. Base trims typically use smaller wheels (16") while higher trims use 17" or 18" wheels. Check the breakdown below for your specific year and trim.
- What is the correct tire pressure for a Audi Q5?
- Recommended tire pressure for the Audi Q5 is typically 32-36 PSI. The exact specification is on the sticker inside the driver's door jamb. Do NOT use the "max pressure" number on the tire sidewall.
- Can I put bigger tires on my Audi Q5?
- You can typically go one size up in width (e.g., 215 to 225) without issues. Going up in diameter (e.g., 16" to 17") requires matching wheels and may affect speedometer accuracy. Extreme upsizing can cause rubbing and void warranty.
- How often should I rotate Audi Q5 tires?
- Rotate your Audi Q5 tires every 5,000-7,500 miles for even wear. Front-wheel drive vehicles wear front tires faster, so regular rotation is especially important.
