Wheel Balance
Every new vehicle leaves the factory having
had the wheels dynamically balanced. Out of
balance wheels may be due to many factors. If
wheels are out of balance, shaking or vibration
of the steering mechanism may occur and
the tyres may start to wear excessively. It is
important to restore wheel balance as quick
as possible. Each wheel should be rebalanced
after installing a new tyre or having a tyre
repair.
Wheel Alignment
Incorrect wheel alignment can cause
excessive tyre wear and affect vehicle safety.
If the tyres show signs of abnormal wear,
check the wheel alignment and seek advice
from an MG Authorised Repairer.
Caring for your Tyres
 DEFECTIVE TYRES ARE
EXTREMELY DANGEROUS! DO
NOT drive if any tyre is damaged,
excessively worn, or incorrectly
inated.
It is recommended to install the
tyres consistent with the original
specications.DONOTreplacethe
tyres with tyres of any other type.
Alternative tyres, of a different
specication, may adversely affect
the vehicle’s driving characteristics
and safety. In order to retain the
original safety characteristics it is
suggested that you consult an MG
AuthorisedRepairer.
Always drive with consideration for the
condition of the tyres, and regularly inspect
the tread and side walls for any sign of
distortion (bulges), cuts or wear.
 If possible, protect tyres from
contamination by oil, grease and
fuel.
Tyre Pressure
 Beforealongdistancejourney,the
tyrepressuresshouldbechecked.
Check the pressures (including the spare
wheel if fitted) at least every month. Carry
out pressure checks when the tyres are cold.
If it is necessary to check the tyres when they
are warm, you should expect the pressures to
have increased by 30 ~ 40kPa (0.3 ~ 0.4bar).
In this circumstance, NEVER let air out of the
tyres in order to match the recommended
pressures (cold) in the technical data.
Valves
Keep the valve caps firmly secured to prevent
dirt from entering the valve. Check the valve
for leaks (listen for a tell-tale hissing) when
you check the tyre pressure.
