SNOW CHAINS
85)
Rear Wheel Drive and All-wheel drive versions
0.27 inch (7 mm) snow chains can be used on all tyres. For tyres up to 225 mm in width (205/60R16, 225/55R16, 225/50R17,
225/45R18), it is also possible to install 0.5 in (9 mm) chains.
We recommend using snow chains available from the Alfa Romeo Dealership.
Quadrifoglio version
It is possible to put chains on the rear 265/35R19 tyre (winter tyre size). Avoid using traditional chains as they can damage the
braking system if not installed correctly, thereby compromising the car's safety.
We strongly advise using zero-clearance chains and to use equipment proposed by the Dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealership.
Important notes
The use of snow chains should be in compliance with local regulations of each country. In certain countries, tyres marked with code
M+S (Mud and Snow) are considered as winter equipment; therefore their use is equivalent to that of the snow chains.
The snow chains may be applied only to the rear wheel tyres.
Check the tension of the snow chains after the first few metres have been driven.
IMPORTANT Using snow chains with tyres with non-original dimensions may damage the vehicle.
IMPORTANT Using different size or type (M+S, snow, etc.) tyres between front and rear axle may adversely affect vehicle
driveability, with the risk of losing control of the vehicle and resulting accidents.
182) If winter tyres with a lower speed rating than that indicated in the Registration Document are used, do not exceed the maximum speed
corresponding to the speed rating of the tyres used.
85) Keep your speed down when snow chains are fitted; do not exceed 50 km/h. Avoid potholes, do not drive over steps or sidewalks and do not
drive long distances over roads without snow, to avoid damaging both your vehicle and the road surface.
