Changing tyre/wheel type
Before c hanging to tyres or wheels of a
different size, seek advice as regards
technical possibilities. We recommend that
you consult your Vauxhall Authorised
Repairer, who will be awa re of any
necessary changes.
Fitting new tyr es
Fit tyres in pa irs or in sets, which is even
better. Ensure tha t tyres on one axle are
z
the same siz e
z
the same design
z
the same make
z
and have the same tread pattern.
Fit directional tyres such that they roll in the
direction of trav el. The rolling direction is
indicated by a symbol (e.g. an arrow) on
the sidewall.
Tyres fitted opposing the rolling direction
(e.g. when a tyre is changed) should be
refitted as soon as possible. This is the only
way to benefit fully from the d esign
properties of the tyres.
Use of unsuitab le tyres or wheels m ay
lead to accidents and render the vehicle
unroa dworthy.
We recommend that you hav e your tyres
chang ed b y your Vauxhall Authorised
Repairer, who will b e familiar w ith the
requirem ents of the law a s regards
disposal of tyres and can thus help to
protect the environment and your
health.
