Recommended tire brands
For each tire size, the manufacturer of your ve‐

road safety.◀
Winter tires
The manufacturer of your vehicle recommends
winter tires for winter roads or at temperatures

Although so-called all-season M+S tires do
provide better winter traction than summer tires, they do not provide the same level of per‐
formance as winter tires.
Maximum speed of winter tires

than the permissible speed for the winter tires,
then display a corresponding sign in the field
of vision. You can obtain this sign from the tire

Rotating the tires is not permissible when us‐
ing different types of tires.
Storage
Store wheels and tires in a cool, dry place with
as little exposure to light as possible.
Always protect tires against all contact with oil,
grease and fuels.
Do not exceed the maximum tire inflation pres‐
sure indicated on the side wall of the tire.
Run-flat tires
