Tyres

Restrictions
Not all tyres available on the market
currently meet the structural requirements.
We recommend that you consult a
Vauxhall Authorised Repairer concerning
suitable tyre makes.
These tyres have undergone special tests
to establish their reliability, safety and
specific suitability for Vauxhall vehicles.
Despite continuous market monitoring, we
are unable to assess these attributes for
other tyres, even if they have been granted
approval by the relevant authorities or in
some other form.
Further information – see page 132.
Winter tyres
3
Tyres of size 185/60 R 15, 185/65 R 15,
195/45 R 16 and 195/50 R 16 are not
permitted for use as winter tyres.
If winter tyres are in use, the spare wheel
may still be fitted with a summer tyre.
Use of the spare wheel may alter vehicle
handling. Obtain a replacement for the
faulty tyre as soon as possible, and have
the wheel balanced and fitted to the
vehicle.
Further information – see page 136.
Tyre chains
3
Tyre chains may be used on the front
wheels only.
We recommend the use of Vauxhall-tested
fine-mesh chains that add no more than
10 mm to the tyre tread and the inboard
sides (including chain lock).
Tyre chains are not permitted on the
temporary spare wheel or on tyres of size
185/60 R 15, 185/65 R 15, 195/45 R 16 and
195/50 R 16.
Tyre chains are generally permitted on
tyres of size 185/55 R 15.
Further information – see page 136.
Technical data

Wheels

Wheel bolt tightening torque: 110 Nm.
On vehicles with alloy wheels 3:
the spare wheel may have a steel rim.
The spare wheel may have a smaller tyre
and a smaller wheel: using the spare wheel
may cause different driving behaviour.
Replace defective tyre as soon as possible,
balance wheel and have it fitted to the
vehicle.
Tyre pressure in bar / psi
The specified tyre pressures are valid for
cold tyres. The increased tyre pressure
resulting from extensive driving must not
be reduced. The tyre pressure specified on
the following pages apply to both summer
and winter tyres.
The spare wheel must always be filled with
the tyre pressure for a full load - see tables
on following pages.
Temporary spare wheel tyre pressure -
see tables on next page.
