Tyres
When replacing the tyres, be sure to equip all four tyres with the tyre and wheel of the
same size, type, tread, brand and load-carrying capacity.
In case of emergency such as tyre puncture, repair it using TMK (Tyre Mobility Kit)
for temporary use. Afterwards, have the tyre be inspected by an authorised Kia deal
er/service partner.
