Audi RS7 Spare Tire
The Audi RS7, a high-performance variant of the Audi A7 lineup, is designed with speed and luxury in mind, which influences its approach to spare tires. Traditionally, high-performance cars like the RS7 prioritize weight savings and space optimization to enhance performance, often leading to the absence of a traditional full-size spare tire. Instead, the RS7 typically includes an emergency tire repair kit or a compact, temporary spare tire - often referred to as a "donut" - designed for limited use to get you to a repair shop, not for extended driving. The exact size and availability of a spare tire for the Audi RS7 can vary by model year and options chosen at purchase. For those models equipped with a compact spare, it is significantly smaller than the car's standard tires to save space and weight, usually stored in a dedicated compartment in the car's trunk or cargo area. Owners looking for the security of a spare tire should consult their owner's manual or an Audi dealership for specific details regarding the size and availability for their RS7 model. Given the car's performance orientation, upgrading to a full-size spare may not be straightforward due to space constraints and the potential impact on vehicle dynamics.
Audi RS7 models manufactured from 2014 to 2018 have tires with overall diameter ranging from 27.5" to 27.6", allowing the use of a temporary spare tire with a near same diameter as the OEM tire. Tire diameter and wheel diameter clearance have been taken into account for the specific Audi RS7 years and trims.
Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some Audi RS7 vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 26.7" to 28.4". Some RS7 models may require the use of a traditional full-size tire as a spare. To ensure safe temporary mobility in case of a road emergency, always refer to the vehicle owner's manual for the correct Audi RS7 spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
