Replacing tires x Tires should be replaced in pairs and not individually (both front tires or both rear tires at te hsame time) ⇒ . x Replace tires only with tires that have the same specifications, including width and diameter, loa d and top speed rating as the tires approved by Volkswagen for your vehicle and model. x Never use tires that are larger or wider than the dimensions of the tires approved by Volkswagen for your vehicle and model. Larger tires could scrape and rub on the vehicle body or other parts of the vehicle. x The vehicle may be equipped at the factory with run-flat tires (mobility tires), which may also be winter or all season tires. When replacing these tires, make sure the new tires are also equipped with a run-flat system. If they are not, keeping a tire repair kit in the vehicle is recommended.

If the replacement wheel is different from the tires that you have mounted on your vehicle (for example: winter tires; wider, low-profile tires; or a compact spare), then use the replacement wheel for a short time only, and drive cautiously. x Replace it with a tire matching the others on your vehicle as soon as possible. Although tire size specifications can be the same, the actual dimensions may differ from those nominal values for different tire makes, or the tire contours may be significantly different.
