wise be adversely affected. In addition,
when driving
with a load, dimensional var-
iations and different tyre deformation
characteristics could cause the tyres to
make contact with the bodywork and axle
components. This could result in damage to
the tyres or the vehicle.
smart accepts no liability for damage
resulting from the use of tyres or wheels
other than those tested and approved.
Information on wheels and tyres can be
obtained at a qualified specialist work-
shop, e.g. a smart centre.
!
Retreaded tyres have not been tested by
smart and the fitment of such tyres is not
recommended. Previous damage sustained
by the tyres (before the retreading process)
cannot always be recognised. As a result,
smart cannot guarantee vehicle safety if
retreaded tyres are fitted.
!
Large wheels: the lower the section width
for a certain wheel size, the lower the ride
comfort is on poor road surfaces. Roll com-
fort and suspension comfort are reduced
and the risk of damage to the wheels and
tyres as a result of driving over obstacles
increases.
Overview of abbreviations used in the fol-
lowing tyre tables:
R
BA: both axles
R
FA: front axle
R
RA: rear axle
You will find a table with the recommended
tyre pressures on the tyre pressure table on
the driver's side B-pillar. For further infor-
mation on tyre pressure, see (Y page 203).
Check tyre pressures regularly and only when
the tyres are cold.
Notes on the vehicle equipment – always fit
the vehicle:
R
with tyres of the same size on a given axle
(left/right)
R
with the same type of tyres on all wheels at
a given time (summer tyres, winter tyres)
Exception: it is permissible to fit a dif-
ferent type or make in the event of a flat
tyre.

Not all wheel/tyre combinations can be
