Volkswagen Touran Service Manual: Tires with Rim Protector
| The tire industry produces tires with rim protector for
light alloy wheels (rim protector). The rim protector prevents
damage to the light alloy wheels caused by contact with curbs. |
| Using tires with rim protector on steel wheels with wheel
covers may lead to the loss of the wheel cover while driving.
The cover separates from its secure seating due to the flexing
of the tire. |
WARNING
| When installing tires on steel rims, ensure only
tires without rim protector are mounted. |

drivetrain and increased tire wear with possible damage to the
drivetrain. |
| This also applies to front and rear tires that are worn
differently. In this case, install tires with a larger tread
depth. |
