WARNING Risk of injury thro ugh dif fer‐
ent wheel sizes
Inter changing the front and rear wheels can
se verely impair the driving characteristics.
The disk brakes or wheel suspension compo‐
nents may also be damaged. #
Onlyinter change the front and rear
wheels if the wheels and tyres ha vethe
same dimensions. Inter
changing the front and rear wheels if the
wheels or tyres ha vediffere nt dimensions can
re nder thege neral operating pe rmit in valid.
The wear pat tern s on the front and rear wheels
dif fer:
R front wheels wear more on the tyre shoulder R
rear wheels wear more in the cent reofthe
tyre
Do not drive wi thtyres that ha vetoo little tread
dep th. This significantly reduces traction on wet
ro ads (aquaplaning).
On vehicles with the same front and rear wheel
size, you can inter change the wheels every
5000 to10,000 km, depending on thewe ar.
Ensure the direction of rotation is maintained for
th e wheels.
