Audi SQ5 Sportback Tyre Reviews

Tyres are the only part of a Audi SQ5 Sportback that touches the road, and they have more influence on braking, wet grip, noise and ride comfort than almost any other component you can change. This page collects owner reviews and buying advice for Audi SQ5 Sportback tyres in Australia.

What to look for in Audi SQ5 Sportback tyres

Medium SUVs spend most of their lives on sealed roads with the occasional gravel driveway or campground, and the tyre that suits them best usually reflects that. A quality highway or touring pattern will outlast and out-brake an aggressive all-terrain in this use case, and it will be considerably quieter.

Wet performance is worth prioritising. These vehicles are family transport, often loaded, and wet braking distance varies more between tyre models than almost any other measurable characteristic. Check the load index and speed rating on the placard before shopping — many medium SUVs specify a higher load index than a same-size passenger car tyre carries as standard.

Audi SQ5 Sportback tyre sizes and fitment

Before you order, check the placard on your own vehicle rather than relying on the size currently fitted — previous owners change wheels and tyres more often than you would think. The placard gives the original size, the minimum load index and speed rating, and the recommended cold inflation pressures. If your SQ5 Sportback has aftermarket wheels, the overall rolling diameter should stay within a few per cent of standard so the speedometer, ABS and stability control continue to read correctly.
