to take tubeless tyres only. Tyre sizes are given
in the Service specifications in Chapter 1.

beginning of this manual for tyre maintenance.
Fitting new tyres
3 When selecting new tyres, refer to the tyre
information given in the owners handbook.
Ensure that front and rear tyre types are
the case of tubeless tyres because the force
required to break the seal between the wheel
rim and tyre bead is substantial, and is usually
beyond the capabilities of an individual
working with normal tyre levers. Additionally,
the specialist will be able to balance the
wheels after tyre fitting.
5 Note that although punctured tubeless
tyres can in some cases be repaired, Peugeot
do not recommend the use of repaired tyres.
Do not fit an inner tube inside a tubeless tyre.
