Fitting new tyres
For safety reasons, this op-
eration must be carried out
by a specialist.
Fitting different tyres may
change your vehicle as follows:
– it may mean that your vehicle no
longer conforms to current regu-
lations;
– It may change the way it handles
when cornering;
– It may cause the steering to be
heavy;
– it may affect the use of snow
chains.
