CAUTION
Only use tires which have been test-
ed and approved for your Sprinter ve-
hicle by the vehicle manufacturer.

tems on your Sprinter vehicle such as
ABS, BAS, ASR or ESP
®.
Using tires other than those ap-

proved by the vehicle manufacturer
can have detrimental effects, such as
poor handling characteristics
increased noise
increased fuel consumption
Moreover, tires and rims not ap-
proved by the vehicle manufacturer
may, under load, exhibit dimensional
variations and different tire deforma-
tion characteristics that could cause
them to come into contact with the
vehicle body or axle parts. Damage to
the tires or the vehicle may be the re-
sult.
