1. The wheels fitted to all models are made of pressed steel, but vary in size and design. Never mix wheels of different types.
2. Some models are equipped with double rear wheels.
3. Periodically check the condition of the wheel rims for dents and rust, and take necessary measures.
4. Steel cord tires are installed as standard equipment. When installing new tires, make sure that all tires on the vehicle are of the same design. When installing tires with textile cord, their rapid wear was observed.
5. Inflate your tires to the correct pressure and regularly check for damage to the tire walls or for any stray nails in the tread.
6. The wheels are balanced statically and dynamically during vehicle production. They can be balanced again after installing new tires, or after a tire repair, as well as halfway through the tire's life.
7. On LT 35 Pick-up models, the spare tire must be positioned in its bracket with its concave side facing down, otherwise there is a risk of damage to the fuel tank.
