stance due to contact with the body due to tol‐
erances despite the same official size rating.

negative impact on the vehicle's handling and

the Anti-lock Brake System or Dynamic Stabil‐
ity Control. There is a risk of accident. To main‐
tain good handling and vehicle response, use
only tires with a single tread configuration from
a single manufacturer. The manufacturer of the

tires that have been recommended by the vehi‐
cle manufacturer for your vehicle type. Follow‐
ing tire damage, have the original wheel/tire
combination remounted on the vehicle as soon
as possible.
Warning
Unsuitable wheel studs, such as single-section
wheel studs, may loosen or come off. The
wheel may come loose during driving. There is
a risk of accident. Use only two-section wheel
studs that have been categorized as suitable
for the respective wheel type by the manufac‐
turer of the vehicle.

For each tire size, the manufacturer of the vehi‐
cle recommends certain tire brands. The tire
