Passat vehicles are equipped with tubeless radial tires and wheels of various sizes.

Keep in mind that when choosing a disk, you need to consider not only the diameter and width of the disk, but also the distance from the mounting surface to the line of symmetry of the disk.

Initially, new tires do not yet provide sufficient grip on the road surface; the first 100 km should be driven at moderate speed and with special care - during this period the tires "roll in". Successful implementation of this process contributes to an increase in the service life of the tires.

Depending on the design features and tread pattern of the tires, the tread depth of new tires varies among individual tire models and manufacturers.

From time to time, tires undergo durability tests during operation (which can result in punctures, cuts, tears and swelling). Foreign objects should be removed from the tire tread regularly.

To avoid damage to tires and rims, drive slowly and, if possible, at right angles over curbs and other similar obstacles.

Often, tires and wheels have hidden damage. The appearance of unusual vibration or the car pulling to the side may indicate tire damage. If you suspect that a tire is damaged, you should immediately reduce speed! Check the tires for damage (cracks, swelling, etc.). If no external damage is found, drive slowly and carefully to the nearest Volkswagen service center for a thorough inspection of the tire condition.

Avoid contact of tires with oils, greases and fuels.

Lost dust caps must be replaced with new caps immediately.



Before removing the wheels, it is necessary to make appropriate marks on them so that when reinstalling them, the previous direction of rotation of the tires can be maintained.

Removed wheels and tires should be stored in a clean and dry condition, preferably in a dark room. Tires not mounted on rims should be stored in an upright position.

Before removing the wheels, increase the tire pressure by 0.3–0.5 bar.
