About the 285/45R21 size
Audi Q7/Q8 21 in size, V/W/Y with 113 XL load. OE-marked (AO) touring and summer tires from Continental, Pirelli and Michelin.
The numbers mean: 285 mm section width, sidewall height 45 % of that width, and a 21-inch rim. Overall diameter works out to about 31.1 inches. Any replacement has to match all three, and the load index and speed rating on your door sticker must be met or exceeded. Our guide on reading a tire size walks through it.

Frequently asked questions
How much do 285/45R21 tires cost?
Expect $157–$432 per tire for a budget brand, $432–$561 for a mid-range tire like the Continental CrossContact LX25, and $561–$758 for a premium tire like the Michelin Primacy Tour A/S. A set of four therefore starts at about $628. Add roughly $15 to $45 per tire for mounting and balancing.
What vehicles use 285/45R21 tires?
285/45R21 is original equipment on Audi Q7 (2017-2024, 21 in), Audi Q8 (2019-2024, 21 in), Porsche Cayenne (2019-2024, 21 in alternative), Bentley Bentayga (2017-2024, 21 in), Kia EV9 (2024, GT-Line 21 in) and Lamborghini Urus (2019-2024, 21 in front), among others. Always confirm with the sticker inside your driver's door, because trim levels and wheel packages can change the size.
What is the best 285/45R21 tire?
For most drivers our mid-range pick, the Continental CrossContact LX25, is the sweet spot of price and tread life. If you keep the vehicle a long time or drive in heavy rain and snow, the Michelin Primacy Tour A/S is worth the extra. On a tight budget the Kumho Crugen HP71 is a sound choice.
Can I replace just one or two 285/45R21 tires?
On a front- or rear-wheel-drive car, yes: replace in pairs on the same axle and put the newer pair on the rear. On all-wheel-drive vehicles most makers want all four replaced together, or a new tire shaved to match, because a difference in circumference strains the drivetrain.
