UNDERSTANDING RIM MARKING fig. 179
Example: 7J x 17 ET39
7 = rim width in inches 1.
J = rim drop centre outline (side projection
where the tyre bead rests)
2.
17 = rim nominal diameter in inches (corresponds
to diameter of the tyre to be mounted)
3= Ø.
ET39 = wheel camber (distance between the disc/rim
support plane and the wheel rim centre line).RIM PROTECTORS fig. 180
DO NOT fit wheel hub caps (for
versions/markets, where provided) when
using integral hub caps fixed (with springs) to
the steel rim and after sale tyres provided with
Rim Protector. The use of unsuitable tyres and
wheel hub caps could cause a sudden pressure
loss in the tyre.
