Safety information
Warning
Wheels and tires which are not suitable
for your vehicle can damage parts of the
vehicle, for instance due to contact with
the body due to tolerances despite the
same official size rating. There is a risk of
an accident. The manufacturer of your ve-
hicle strongly suggests that you use
wheels and tires that have been recom-
mended by the vehicle manufacturer for
your vehicle type.
Warning
Incorrect wheel/tire combinations will im-
pair the vehicle's handling characteristics
and a variety of system functions, such as
the Antilock Braking System or Dynamic
Stability Control. There is a risk of acci-
dent. To maintain good handling and vehi-
cle response, use only tires with a single
tread configuration from a single manufac-
turer. The manufacturer of the vehicle rec-
ommends that you use wheels and tires
that have been recommended by the vehi-
cle manufacturer for your vehicle type.
Following tire damage, have the original
wheel/tire combination remounted on the
vehicle as soon as possible.
Recommended tire brands
For each tire size, the manufacturer of the
vehicle recommends certain tire brands.
The tire brands can be identified by a star
on the tire sidewall.
New tires
Tire traction is not optimal due to manufac-
turing circumstances when tires are brand-
new; they achieve their full traction poten-
tial after a break-in time.
Drive conservatively for the first
200 miles/300 km.
Retreaded tires
Warning
Retreated tires can have different tire cas-
ing structures. With advanced age the
service life can be limited. There is a risk
of accident. The manufacturer of the vehi-
cle does not recommend the use of re-
treaded tires.
