A warning

Rims and wheel bolts constructively match. Each retrofitting to other rim to be applied corresponding bolts of the correct length and shape of circularity (the surface adjacent to the rim). On this depends the reliability of fastening of wheels and brake system operation.

Technology evolves. It is possible that the old model will be allowed to establish other combinations of tires and rims with a different tire pressure. Determines the dimensions given in the documentation on the car. The values of air pressure in the tires as shown on the sticker on the front door of the driver.


All values relate to excess pressure of cold tires. Occurs during a prolonged increase in traffic pressure by about 0.2-0.4 bar, you can not reduce.

Winter tires generally have an overpressure of 0.2 bar higher. Pay attention to the manufacturer's recommendations with respect to the pressure in winter tires.

"Reinforced" - strengthening the enforcement of the tire.

The pressure in the spare tire is the maximum pressure of the rear tires, for example, tires 195/70 R 15-3,4 bar.

Winter tires have a speed limit. Therefore it is necessary to remember the allowable speed limit.
