WHEELS
RIMS AND TYRES
Alloy rims. Tubeless tyres with radial car-
cass. The homologated tyres are listed
in the Log book.
WARNINGIn the event of discrep-
ancies between the information provid-
ed on this “Owner’s Manual” and the
“Log book”, consider the specifications
shown in the log book only.
On cars fitted with four-wheel drive, all
four tyres should be the same (brand
and track) to prevent damaging the 4-
WD system. The efficiency of the 4-WD
system however, is not jeopardized if
tyres with different wear conditions are
fitted.
Attaining to the prescribed size, to en-
sure safety of the car in movement, it
must be fitted with tyres of the same
make and type on all wheels.
WARNINGDo not use inner tubes
with Tubeless tyres.

RIM PROTECTOR TYRES
fig. 6
If after-sale tyres with
rim protector are used
(fig. 6) and the car has inte-
gral cups fixed (by springs) to
the sheet wheel, DO NOT fit
wheel cups. The use of unsui-
table tyres and wheel cups
could cause a sudden pressu-
re loss of the tyre.
