Audi S3 Spare Tire

The Audi S3, a small luxury sports sedan recognized for its performance and premium features, is equipped similarly when it comes to its provisions for spare tires, a critical aspect for many drivers seeking peace of mind during their travels. Traditionally, Audi, like many luxury car manufacturers, has not always included a full-size spare tire as standard equipment, often opting instead for more space-efficient solutions. For the S3, this typically means either a compact, temporary-use spare tire (also known as a "donut") or a tire repair kit consisting of sealant and a compressor. The compact spare tire, when provided, generally measures significantly smaller than the car's standard tires, designed for limited use to safely get you to a service location; its dimensions are specifically chosen to fit within the designated spare tire well in the vehicle's trunk, ensuring it does not consume excessive space. Owners seeking full-size spare tires for the Audi S3 are advised to consider the dimensions of their vehicle's standard tires and the available trunk space, as opting for a full-size spare might require sacrificing cargo area and additional considerations for secure mounting. Also, compatibility with the car's wheel and brake setup is paramount.

Audi S3 models manufactured from 2015 to 2025 have tires with overall diameter ranging from 25.1" to 25.5", 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 S3 years and trims.

Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some Audi S3 vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 24.3" to 26.3". Some S3 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 S3 spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
