WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2023 Audi S3, 2023 Audi RS 3, 2023 Audi A3 Quattro, and 2023 Audi A3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

For all four wheels use only tires of the same construction type, and tread.
Replacing one individual tire is always possible. However, Audi recommends at the very least that the tires are replaced on both sides of the axle.
With sport differential on the rear axle, Audi recommends always replacing the tires on both sides of the rear axle.

NOTE:

The technical background of the limitations are thermal pressure for the transmission oil due to a large difference in the rolling circumference of the tires.
