Wheel sizes 19" or 20" The wheel package decides which one your car has.
Tire sizes listed 4 In 15 model years more than one size was fitted, depending on trim.

Check before you order. The surest answer is the tires on the car right now: the size is molded into the sidewall. The placard inside the driver's door tells you what the factory fitted, which can differ from what a previous owner put on. Our guide on reading a tire size shows exactly where to look.

What Audi approves

Audi

AO marks an Audi approval, RO1 an approval for the RS models.

Audi's approval covers noise and rolling resistance as well as grip, which is why an AO tire is often quieter on an Audi than the same model without the marking. RO1 tires are built for the higher loads of an RS car.

Brands that carry the approval

Michelin Continental Pirelli Hankook Goodyear

Written on the sidewall as: Continental SportContact (AO), Pirelli P Zero (RO1).

The drawing carries the sizes we list for this car, so you know what you are looking for. The placard on the car is still the final word, and it is the only place that gives the cold pressures: the number molded into the sidewall is the maximum the tire can hold, not what your car wants.

Audi R8 tires: common questions

What size tires does a Audi R8 take?

The most common original size is 245/30R20. Other model years and trims use different sizes, so check the list on this page and confirm against the sticker inside your driver's door.

You can, within limits: the overall diameter should stay within about 3 percent of the original, and the load index and speed rating must meet or exceed the door placard. Anything further changes your speedometer reading and can rub at full lock.
