The table is filtered to researched tyre sizes: 205/55 R16, 205/50 R17, 225/45 R17, 225/40 R18, 235/35 R19. Compare the listed size against the current tyre sidewall first, then check load/speed rating, season and run-flat notes. Products outside those researched sizes are deliberately excluded from this vehicle shortlist.

For the 2016 Audi A3, the researched tyre sizes are locked to 205/55 R16, 205/50 R17, 225/45 R17, 225/40 R18 and 235/35 R19. Because trim, wheel option and market can change the correct size on this model year, this page is a shortlist of exact matches rather than a universal recommendation. Audi guidance in the evidence also points shoppers toward model-specific fitment checks, so the safest next step is to confirm the size on your current tyre sidewall or vehicle placard before comparing Tyres.net options.
The supplied shortlist spans four brands — Continental, Nexen, Pirelli and Bridgestone — with prices from £61.37 to £137.13 and a median of £90.06. That spread makes it useful for comparing budget-friendly 205/55 R16 choices against higher-priced 19-inch performance-leaning options, but only after you’ve confirmed the exact size on the car. Brand familiarity matters here too: the Nexen N blue HD Plus is the lowest-priced 205/55 R16 option in the set, while Continental and Pirelli sit higher in the same general fitment comparison. Stock and delivery can also change the value picture, so check the live retailer listing before you commit.
Start with the exact size on the sidewall or vehicle placard, then make sure the load index and speed rating on the listing match what your car requires. For example, the shortlist includes the Nexen N blue HD Plus 205/55 R16 91V Summer at £61.37-£73.05, the Continental EcoContact 6 205/55 R16 91V Summer at £79.91-£120.99, and the Bridgestone Turanza T005 225/40 R18 92Y Summer at £90.06-£114.27. If your current setup uses run-flat tyres, check that marking specifically rather than assuming a standard tyre will be a like-for-like replacement. After fitment is confirmed, compare season and availability: every shortlisted tyre here is a summer tyre, so the main decision becomes price, brand and whether the retailer currently shows stock and delivery for your chosen size.
The 2016 Audi A3 sits in a model year that can overlap generation and equipment changes, so the badge alone is not enough to identify the right tyre. Wheel option, trim level, market and any previous wheel change can all shift the correct fitment, which is why the researched set includes multiple exact sizes rather than one catch-all answer. Treat the tyre on the car as the final reference point and only compare products that match that exact size group.
The most important check is the current sidewall size, followed by the vehicle placard if you want a second confirmation. Once the size is confirmed, compare load index and speed rating on the retailer page, because a matching width and rim size still needs the right rating for the vehicle setup. Do not choose a near size or guess from the model badge alone; for this car, the safe shortlist is limited to the five researched sizes only.
All five shortlisted tyres are marked summer tyres, so this page is best used for warm-weather or summer-focused comparison rather than a mixed-season shopping decision. Public review and rating evidence is effectively absent in the supplied set, so there is no reliable review-led ranking to lean on here. That makes the visible product details — size, brand, season, price, stock and delivery — more useful than star ratings for deciding which exact match suits your A3.
Value on this page is mostly about choosing the right exact-size tyre at the right price point, not about chasing the cheapest listing. In 205/55 R16, the Nexen N blue HD Plus at £61.37-£73.05 is the clear budget end of the supplied set, while Continental’s EcoContact 6 sits higher at £79.91-£120.99 for the same size. At the larger end, the Continental ContiSportContact 5 P and Pirelli P Zero PZ4 SC in 235/35 R19 are much more price-leaning options, so check current stock and delivery before deciding which exact match is worth paying for.

Yes. The 2016 Audi A3 can use different sizes depending on trim, wheel option and market, and a previous wheel change can also alter the correct fitment. For this page, only the five researched sizes are included, so confirm your current sidewall or vehicle placard before ordering.
Start with the tyre sidewall already on the car, then confirm it against the vehicle placard if available. That check matters because the model badge alone does not tell you the correct size, load index or speed rating for your specific Audi A3.
Yes. A tyre can match the size but still be wrong if the load index, speed rating or run-flat marking does not suit the vehicle’s current setup. Use the retailer listing to confirm those details after you have matched the exact size on the sidewall or placard.
Stock and delivery can change which exact match is the best buy at the moment. Two tyres in the same 205/55 R16 or 235/35 R19 size can have different availability, so it’s worth confirming the live retailer listing before you place the order.
