Mounting
Information on mounting tires
Have mounting and balancing performed
only by a service center or tire specialist.
If this work is not carried out properly, there is
the danger of subsequent damage and related
safety hazards.◀
Wheel and tire combination
Information on the correct wheel-tire combina‐
tion and rim versions for your vehicle can be ob‐
tained from your service center.
RSC label on the tire sidewall.
The wheels are composed of special rims and
tires that are self-supporting, to a limited de‐
gree.
Incorrect wheel and tire combinations impair the
function of a variety of systems such as ABS or
DSC.
The support of the sidewall allows the tire to re‐
main drivable to a restricted degree in the event
of a pressure loss.
To maintain good handling and vehicle re‐
sponse, use only tires with a single tread con‐
figuration from a single manufacturer.
Driving with a damaged tire:
Following tire damage, have the original wheel
and tire combination remounted on the vehicle
as soon as possible.

Approved wheels and tires
Changing run-flat tires
The manufacturer of your vehicle recom‐
mends that you use only wheels and tires that
have been approved for your particular vehicle
model.
For your own safety, only use run-flat tires. No
sparetireisavailableinthecaseofaflattire.Your
service center will be glad to advise you.
For example, despite having the same official
size ratings, variations can lead to body contact
and with it, the risk of severe accidents.
Tire age
The manufacturer of your vehicle cannot evalu‐
ate 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.◀
Recommendation
Regardless of wear, replace tires at least every
6
years.
