Wheel and tire combination
Information on the right wheel and tire combination and rim version for your vehicle can be obtained from the service center.
Incorrect wheel and tire combinations impair the function of a variety of systems such as ABS or DSC.
To maintain good handling and vehicle response, use only tires with a single tread configuration from a single manufacturer.
Following tire damage, have the original wheel and tire combination remounted on the vehicle as soon as possible.
Approved wheels and tires
The manufacturer of your vehicle recommends
that you use only wheels and tires that
have been approved for your particular vehicle
model.
For example, despite having the same official size ratings, variations can lead to body contact and with it, the risk of severe accidents.
The manufacturer of your vehicle cannot evaluate non-approved wheels and tires to determine if they are suited for use, and therefore cannot ensure the operating safety of the vehicle if they are mounted.◀
