2018 Audi A6 Spare Tire
The Audi A6, revered for its blend of luxury and performance, typically incorporates a space-saving spare tire, commonly referred to as a "donut," to optimize trunk space while ensuring driver preparedness for roadside tire emergencies. The specific size and availability of the spare tire can differ slightly based on the A6 model year and trims, such as the base Premium, mid-range Premium Plus, or the top-tier Prestige, as well as variations between sedan and avant (wagon) body styles. Generally, the spare tire for the Audi A6 measures considerably smaller in both width and diameter compared to the vehicle's full-sized tires, designed for temporary use to safely reach a service location. For example, a standard A6 might feature a compact spare with dimensions closely aligning with a 125/70R19, significantly more narrow and with a smaller overall diameter than its regular tires. It's imperative for owners to check their specific model's manual for exact specifications, as Audi might also equip some models with a tire repair kit or an option for a collapsible spare, depending on the configuration and the year. This approach reflects Audi's commitment to balancing practicality with the premium space and luxury expectations inherent to the A6 lineage.
2018 Audi A6 comes with 3 OEM tire size options. Select the original equipment the tire size installed on your vehicle to see all spare tires that have roughly the same tire diameter and can be used as a temporary replacement in the event of a flat tire. Remember that load carrying capacity of the spare tire must be the same or higher than the load carrying capacity of the original equipment tires in order to safely support the weight of your vehicle. Refer to vehicle owner's manual or contact Audi dealership to confirm the correct 2018 Audi A6 spare tire size.
