Vehicles With a Spare Wheel
The spare wheel is under the rear of your
vehicle.
If the spare wheel is the same type and
size as your vehicle road wheel, you can fit
the spare wheel and continue to drive in
the normal manner.
If the spare wheel is not the same type and
size as your vehicle road wheel, it has a
label showing the maximum driving speed
limit. Note:
If your vehicle is fitted with a tire
pressure monitoring system, the warning

to your vehicle. To restore the correct
operation of the tire pressure monitoring
system, you must have the repaired road
wheel and tire assembly refitted to your

System (page 288). To prevent damage
occurring to the tire pressure monitoring
system sensors, make sure you have a

Installing a Road Wheel WARNING:
Use only approved
wheel and tire sizes. Using other sizes
could damage your vehicle and will make
the National Type Approval invalid. WARNING:
Make sure there is no
grease or oil on the threads or the
surface between the wheel lugs and
nuts. This can cause the lug nuts to
loosen while driving. WARNING:
When you install a
wheel, always remove any corrosion, dirt
or foreign materials present on the
mounting surfaces of the wheel or the
surface of the wheel hub, brake drum or
brake disc that contacts the wheel. Make
sure to secure any fasteners that attach
the rotor to the hub so they do not
interfere with the mounting surfaces of
the wheel. Installing wheels without
correct metal-to-metal contact at the
wheel mounting surfaces can cause the
wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel to
come off while your vehicle is in motion,
resulting in loss of vehicle control,
personal injury or death. WARNING:
Only use the specific
lug nuts and wheels supplied with your
vehicle. If in doubt, contact an authorized
dealer. WARNING:
Do not install alloy
wheels using lug nuts designed for use
with steel wheels. WARNING:
The lug nuts of alloy
wheels and spoked steel wheels can also
be used for the steel spare wheel for a
short time (maximum two weeks).
