When replacing the wheels

projection from the body, and
other specifications according
to the factory recommendations.
Tires and wheels
OWM115
Tire life time
When tire manufacturing, four
digits are engraved on the tire
edge. Two left digits indicate
week of manufacturing and
two right digits indicate year of
manufacturing. For example:
3010 means 30th week in 2010.
In a general rule, a tire life time
is not more than 6 years (even
that tire appearance is well),
therefore do not drive by this tire
(spare tire includes of this rule).
Tire wear indicators
Tires fitted on the vehicle have
wear indicators molded into the
tread pattern at several points
around the circumference.
When the treads wear down and
the indicators matches the tread
surface, it is time to replace the
tires.
When the tires and their crowns
and sidewalls distort for any
reason (especially lumps and
cuts), they must be replaced
immediately.
