Audi S3 tire size
Original tire sizes for the Audi S3, model years 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020. Trim levels and wheel packages change the size within the same year, so confirm on the door-jamb sticker before ordering.
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. Our guide on reading a tire size shows exactly where to look.

What Audi approves
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
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.
