Tire
damage
General
information
Inspect
your
tires
regularly
for
damage,
foreign
objects
lodged
in
the
tread,
and
tread
wear.
Driving
over
rough
or
damaged
road
surfaces,
aswell
as
debris,
curbs
and
other
obstacles
cancause
serious
damage
to
wheels,
tires
and
sus#j
pension
parts.
This
is
more
likely
to
occur
with low-profile
tires,
which
provide
less
cushioning
between
the
wheel
and
the
road.
Be
careful
to
avoid
road
hazards
and
reduce
your
speed,
es#j
pecially
if
your
vehicle
is
equipped
with
low-pro#j file
tires.
Indications
of
tire
damage
or
other
vehicle
mal#j
functions:
'xUnusual
vibrations.'xUnusual
tire
or
running
noises.'xUnusual
handling
such
as
a
strong
tendency
to
pull
to
the
left
or
right.
Damage
can
be
caused
by
the
following
situa#j
tions,
for
instance:
'xDriving
over
curbs.'xRoad
damage.'xTire
inflation
pressure
too
low.'xVehicle
overloading.'xIncorrect
tire
storage.
Safety
information
Warning
Damaged
tires
can
lose
tire
inflation
pressure,
which
can
lead
to
loss
of
vehicle
control.
There is
a
risk
of
accident.
If
tire
damage
is
suspected
while
driving,
immediately
reduce
speed
and
stop.
Have
wheels
and
tires
checked.
For
this
purpose,
drive
carefully
to
the
nearest
dealer#ss
service
center
or
another
qualified
service
cen#j
ter
or
repair
shop.

Warning
Tires
can
become
damaged
by
driving
over
ob#j
stacles,
e.g.,
curbs
or
road
damage,
at
high
speed.
Larger
wheels
have
a
smaller
tire
cross- section.
The
smaller
the
tire
cross-section,
thehigher
the
risk
of
tire
damage.
There
is
a
dan#jger
of
accidents
and
property
damage.
If
possi#j
ble,
avoid
driving
over
objects
or
road
condi#j
tions
that
may
damage
tires,
or
drive
over
them
slowly

combination
General
information You
can
ask
the
dealer's
service
center
or
an#jother
qualified
service
center
or
repair
shopabout
the
correct
wheel/tire
combination
andwheel

for
the
vehicle.
Safety
information
Warning
Wheels
and
tires
which
are
not
suitable
for
your
vehicle
can
damage
parts
of
the
vehicle,
for
in#j stance
due
to
contact
with
the
body
due
to
tol#jerances
despite
the
same
official
size
rating.
There
is
a
risk
of
an
accident.
The
manufac#j turer
of
your
vehicle
strongly
suggests
that
you
use
wheels
and
tires
that
have
been
recom#j
mended
by
the
vehicle
manufacturer
for
your
vehicle
type.
Warning
Mounted
steel
wheels
can
cause
technical
problems,
for
instance
unexpected
loosening
of the
lug
bolts
and
damage
to
the
brake
discs.
There
is
a
risk
of
accident.
Do
not
mount
steel wheels.
Warning
Incorrect
wheel/tire
combinations
will
have
a
negative
impact
on
the
vehicle's
handling
and
on
the
function
of
a
variety
of
systems,
such
as
the
ABS
Antilock
Braking
System
or
DSC
Dy#j
namic
Stability
Control.
There
is
a
risk
of
acci#j dent.
To
maintain
good
handling
and
vehicle
response,
use
only
tires
with
a
single
tread
con#j
figuration
from
a
single
manufacturer.
The
manufacturer
of
the
vehicle
recommends
that
you
use
wheels
and
tires
that
have
been
rec#j
ommended
by
the
vehicle
manufacturer
for
your
vehicle
type.
Following
tire
damage,
have
the
original
wheel/tire
combination
remounted
on
the
vehicle
as
soon
as
possible.
Warning
Unsuitable
wheel
studs,
such
as
single-section wheel
studs,
may
loosen
or
come
off.
The
wheel
may
come
loose
during
driving.
There
is
a
risk
of
accident.
Use
only
two-section
wheel
studs
that
have
been
categorized
as
suitable
for
the

wheel
type
by
the

Recommended
tire
brands
For
each
tire
size,
the
manufacturer
of
the
vehi#jcle
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
manufacturing
circumstances
when
tires
are
brand-new;
they achieve
their
full
traction
potential
after
a
break-intime.
Drive
conservatively
for
the
first
200
miles/300
km.
Retreaded
tires
Warning
Retreaded
tires
can
have
different
tire
casing
structures.
With
advanced
age
the
service
life
can
be
limited.
There
is
a
risk
of
an
accident.
The
manufacturer
of
your
vehicle
does
not
rec#j
ommend
the
use
of
retreaded
tires.

Winter
tires General
information Winter
tires
are
recommended
for
operating
on
winter
roads.
Although
so-called
all-season
M+S
tires
provide better
winter
traction
than
summer
tires,
they
usually
do
not
provide
the
same
level
of
perform#jance
as
winter
tires.
Maximum
speed
of
winter
tires If
the
maximum
speed
of
the
vehicle
is
higher
than
the
permissible
speed
for
the
winter
tires,
then
attach
a
label
showing
the
permissible

in
the
field
of
view.
The
label
is
avail#j
able
from
a

Warning
Rotating
tires
between
the
axles
on
vehicles with
different
tire
sizes
or
rim
sizes
on
the
front
and

can
cause
damage
to
the

depending
on
individual
driving conditions.
The

Mobility
System
Concept
With
the
Mobility
System,
minor
tire
damage
can be
sealed
temporarily
to
enable
continued
travel.To
accomplish
this,
sealant
is
pumped
into
thetires,
which
seals
the
damage
from
the
inside.
General
information
'xFollow
