Can anyone guide me what should be the right Tyre pressure(Front and Rear) for my Audi a4 B8 seden ? Mostly, i will be travelling with my family(Wife and 4 yrs old kid at the back).
I am using 225/50 R17 94V tubeless on all the wheels and I do not find the right details from the sticker placed on my car!
I wouldn't speculate. If the tire section in your Owner's Manual doesn't clarify, I would contact Audi in your nation and ask them to clarify. That sticker is far too important of a safety device for it to be so ambiguous.
Your load index is 94, same as the two 225/50R17 entries on the placard. So it'll be the same tire pressures. But you need to find out from Audi why there's three sections of tire info on that sticker and which actually applies to your vehicle.
That bottom section is really odd. WTF would they have a 92 load index and a 99 XL load index using the same pressure?
Sasi, it's fairly obvious that you would follow the pressure for "225/50 R17 94Y" assuming the car is fitted with summer tires. Your tires only carry a V speed rating, which is incorrect for the car. Probably not a big deal. Assuming a modest load, I'd probably try 32/32 psi and see how that feels for you local road conditions.

Thanks for your response.
Previously i have used 36 psi(front and rear) and after your suggestion reduced it to 32 psi(front and rear) and completed around 240 KM with it ;-) and it feels quite good. And do you think it is good to set 32 psi in front wheels and 33 psi in back wheels ?

Thanks for your response, i have service in another 15-20 days will check with Audi and update here.

Most of the weight is carried on the front wheels with these cars unless you are using it as a taxi with suitcases in the trunk and people in the rear seat.

This is my private car and mostly will be travelling with my family(2 adults + 1 kid in the rear seat) and no more than 10-15 KG in the trunk. I think it is better to stick with 32 psi(front and rear) unless i hear anything from Audi Poland.
