Rules for safe tyre and wheel use

The tyres are the only part of the vehicle in direct contact with the road surface, so it is very important to keep them in good condition. Be sure to comply with local road traffic regulations.

For safety reasons and in compliance with applicable law. If tyres need to be replaced on the vehicle, fit only tyres of the same brand, size, type and tread pattern. They must have a load capacity and speed rating at least equal to the original tyres, or comply with the recommendations of the authorised dealer. Failure to observe these recommendations may compromise safety and vehicle compliance.

Risk of loss of control of the vehicle.
