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 146.
Winter tyres
Tyres of size 185/55 R 15, 195/45 R 16 or
205/40 R 17 may not be used as winter
tyres (M+S tyres).
In the case of vehicles with Z 18 XE
engine, size 175/65 R 14 tyres are only
permitted as winter tyres (M+S tyres), and
may only be used in the winter months.
If you use winter tyres 3, the spare wheel
may still be fitted with a summer tyre. If you
use the spare wheel the vehicle's handling
may be altered. 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 149.
Tyre chains
Tyre chains may only be used on the front
wheels. Tyre chains may not be used on the
temporary spare wheel or on tyres of size
185/55 R 15, 185/60 R 15, 195/45 R 16 or
205/40 R 17.

Sales designation – see page 219.
Wheels
Wheel bolt tightening torque: 110 Nm.
On vehicles with alloy wheels 3 the spare
wheel may have a steel rim.
1)
The spare wheel may have a smaller tyre
and a smaller rim: 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 inflation pressures in bar
The specified tyre pressures are valid for
cold tyres. The increased tyre pressure
resulting from extensive driving must not
be reduced. The specified pressures apply
to both summer and winter tyres.
Further information – see pages 146 to 149.

1 bar corresponds to 100 kPa.
