Advice for tyre assembly
›
With directional tyres, observe the correct direc-
tion of rotation. The direction of rotation of the
tyres is marked by arrows on the wall of the tyre.
The directional tyre tread pattern usually appears
with winter and all-season tyres.
›
Always replace the tyres by the axle.
Additional information
Only fit radial tyres of the same type, size (rolling cir-
cumference) and the same tread pattern on one axle.
Approved tyre sizes are specified in the technical ve-
hicle documentation and in the declaration of con-
formity (in the so-called COC Document).
The declaration of conformity can be obtained from
a ŠKODA Partner (valid for some countries and some
models).
