Problem overview

Some Audi Q7 owners report experiencing front tire tread chunking issues with the OEM Goodyear Eagle Sport tires, leading to unusual tire wear and dissatisfaction. This problem has prompted many owners to replace the Goodyear tires with alternatives, such as Continental and Pirelli Scorpion Verde, which have reportedly shown no chunking or pitting. The run-flat version of the Goodyear Eagle Sport tires has been particularly criticized for poor wear patterns. Although Goodyear is generally well-regarded among tire brands, these specific issues with the Q7 have led to recommendations from Audi dealerships to consider other tire options for improved performance and longevity.
