How do I tell if a tyre is developed for a specific car manufacturer?

Identifying tyres designated for specific manufacturers

Tyres manufactured for specific car manufacturers have a small code on the sidewall. Typically, this code is located near the size of the tyre, indicating which car manufacturer it belongs to.

Examples of manufacturer sidewall markings

• * (Star Symbol) - BMW & MINI
• MO - Mercedes
• MO1 - Mercedes AMG
• AO - Audi
• RO1 - Audi performance
• N0, N1, N2, N3, N4 - Porsche
• J - Jaguar
• VO - Volkswagen
• LR - Land Rover
• T0 - Tesla
• HN - Hyundai & Kia

Position of markings

The location of the marking is often one side of the tyre, and is near the size.
