The recommended wheel/tire combinations only apply if the dimensions are entered in the registration papers by the plant or there is a corresponding expert's report on the parts. For wheel/tire combinations which are not entered in the vehicle registration/vehicle title, an appropriate expert's report on the parts/approval certificate is to be issued to the customer.
All the wheel/tire combinations listed here may only be fitted unless there are other grounds if they are listed in the registration papers under items 20 to 23 and 33 or the required TÜV expert's reports are available.
The respective size designation of the rim is only binding for the specified vehicle ranges. Deviations at the contour of the wheel or brake system, despite the same nominal dimensions, can lead to fouling of adjacent components on another model range and thus impair operating safety.
On wheel/tire combinations which require conversion measures on the body and/or the chassis, in the Federal Republic of Germany an installation acceptance is required by an officially recognized expert or inspector of a technical test point for motor vehicle traffic or by a test engineer of an officially recognized supervisory organization.
All disk wheels are only permissible in a light alloy version without special mention.
The recommended tire makes are listed in alphabetical order. No suggestion of priority is intended.
