Alfa Romeo Giulia 952 2017, Owner'S Handbook Manual

Page: 239 / 324

IMPORTANT Crossing the tyres is not
advised, so placing a tyre on a different
axle on the other side of the car is
impossible.
IMPORTANT On cars equipped with
differentiated tyres (tyre size different
between front and rear axles, ex. QV
version) rotation of any of the tyres is not
advised.
Tyre rotation contributes to the
preservation of the grip and traction
performance on wet, muddy or snowy
roads, guaranteeing optimal driveability
of the vehicle.
In the case of irregular wear of the tyres
identify the cause and correct it as soon
as possible, by contacting an Alfa Romeo
Dealership.
The suggested method for inverting the
tyres is shown in fig. 259 (the arrow
indicates the car's travel direction).
All Wheel Drive (AWD) versions
It is recommended to avoid situations
with a large difference in wear between
the front and rear tyres and to strictly
use winter tyres of the sizes given in the
“Rims and tyres provided” table.
The AWD systems and the original tyres
were developed together to ensure the
vehicle’s best performance. When
changing the tyres, it is therefore
recommended to use the same “AR”
marked tyres, to maintain the same level
of performance and component life.
WARNING
174) The road holding qualities of the car
also depend on the correct inflation pressure
of the tyres.
175) If tyre pressure is too low, it may
overheat and be severely damaged as a
result.
176) Never submit alloy rims to repainting
treatments requiring the use of
temperatures exceeding 150°C. The
mechanical properties of the wheels could
be impaired.
IMPORTANT
81) Keep your speed down when snow chains
are fitted; do not exceed 50 km/h (or the
equivalent in miles). Avoid potholes, do not
drive over steps or sidewalks and do not
drive long distances over roads without
snow, to avoid damaging both your vehicle
and the road surface.
