Tyre sizes can differ between S5 body styles, model years and wheel options. Use the registration search to match tyres to your exact car, or check the tyre sidewall and the driver’s door sticker for the approved size.
Many Audi S5 fitments require higher speed ratings to match the vehicle’s performance. When choosing tyres, keep the speed rating and load index in line with your current tyres or the manufacturer specification shown on the vehicle placard.
It’s best to keep the same tyre brand and model across each axle, and ideally all four, especially on quattro models. Matching rolling circumference and similar tread depth helps maintain predictable handling and reduces drivetrain strain.
Summer tyres suit warmer months and sharper handling, while winter tyres provide better traction and braking in colder conditions. If you want one set for year-round UK weather, all-season tyres can be a strong compromise for wet roads and lower temperatures.
Many Audi S5 models use tyre pressure monitoring. Sensors are usually reused during a tyre change, but it’s sensible to have valves checked and replaced if worn, and to recalibrate the system if your car requires it after fitting.
