Replacement of wheels and
tyres
Fitting
Information on tyre mounting
Only have tyres fitted, including balancing,
by your Service Centre or by a specialist tyre
dealer.
If such work is performed inexpertly, it could re‐
sult in consequential damage and thus consti‐
tute a safety risk.◀
Wheel and tyre combination
Your Service centre can provide details of the
right wheel/tyre combination and rim designs for
your car.
Incorrect wheel and tyre combinations will in‐
terfere with the proper functioning of various
systems, such as ABS and DSC.
To maintain good vehicle handling, always fit
tyres of the same make and tread pattern to all
wheels.
After a tyre has been damaged, fit the original
wheel and tyre combination again.
Approved wheels and tyres
The manufacturer of your vehicle recom‐
mends using only wheels and tyres that have
been approved for a specific vehicle type.
Even if nominally the same dimension, tyres
could make contact with the body, for example
due to manufacturing tolerances and result in
serious accidents.
The manufacturer of your vehicle is unable to
assess the suitability of tyres and wheels it has
not approved, and therefore cannot guarantee
their safety.◀
Recommended makes of tyre
Certain makes of tyre are recommended by the
manufacturer of your vehicle depending on tyre
size. These can be seen by the asterisk on the
side wall of the tyre.
When properly used, these tyres meet the high‐
est standards in terms of safety and handling
characteristics.
New tyres
New tyres do not achieve their full road grip im‐
mediately, for production reasons.
During the first 300 km, 200 miles, drive mod‐
erately.
Retreaded tyres
The manufacturer of your vehicle advises
against the use of retreaded tyres.
Retreaded tyres
Due to their potentially different internal
construction and advanced age, their durability
may be limited and their road safety therefore
questionable.◀
Winter tyres
Winter tyres are recommended for operation on
winter roads or at temperatures below
+7 ℃/+45 ℉.
Although so-called all-season tyres with an M+S
marking have better winter characteristics than
summer tyres, they do not normally match the
performance of winter tyres.
