If the front tires are clearly heavily worn, it is recommended to swap the front wheels with the rear ones. As a result, all 4 wheels will have approximately the same service life.
A torque wrench should always be used to tighten the wheel bolts. This ensures that the wheel bolts are tightened evenly and securely.
Do not replace wheels separately, or at least replace both wheels of one axle at once. In this case, always install tires with a deeper tread pattern on the front axle.
Caution: When replacing or removing tubeless tires, for safety reasons, it is essential to replace the valve with a rubberized body.
To protect against deep corrosion, the seat of the disc wheel on the hub, both at the front and at the rear, must be lightly lubricated with plastic grease for rolling bearings each time the corresponding wheel is removed.
Light alloy rims are protected from corrosion by a clear varnish. When replacing wheels, be careful not to damage the protective layer, otherwise restore the protective coating.
Clean dirty bolts. Replace bolts with damaged threads or rust.
Tighten the wheel bolts in a crisscross pattern in several steps.
Caution: If the wheel bolts are tightened one-sidedly or unevenly, increased stress may occur in the wheel and/or wheel hub. The tightening torque for all wheel bolts is 110 Nm. Do not lubricate the wheel bolts before tightening.
