Audi 80/Avant (B4)

Since 1991-1995 of release

Repair and car operation

Four black wheels keep Audi 80 on the chosen course and reliably conduct it to the purpose. It sounds though and мистически, but has not something in common with black magic, and is connected with such usual things, as a rubber mix, drawing of a profile and a tyre skeleton.

What tyres are established?

Particularly on your car it is necessary to establish those sizes of tyres which are brought in the certificate on registration. Tyres with other designations should not be established on wheels of your car, problems with police differently are possible. After all in this case the permission to operation of your car is void. And it can appear expensive pleasure! Tyres which can be established on various versions Audi 80 at corresponding record in the log are more low listed:
