Jprofile of the flange (side projection where the tyre bead rests) (2).
15rim fitting diameter in inches (corresponds to diameter of the tyre
to be mounted) (3 = Ø).
H2shape and number of humps (circumference measurement which
keeps the bead of Tubeless tyres in position on the rim).
ET 40wheel camber (distance between the disc/rim support plane
and the wheel rim centre line).
RIM PROTECTOR TYRES
DO NOT fit wheel caps when using integral wheel caps
fixed (with springs) to the steel rim and after sale
tyres provided with Rim Protector (fig. 176). Use of
unsuitable tyres and wheel caps may cause sudden loss of tyre
pressure.
