Radial and lateral runout of wheels and tires (VW Touareg 1)

Radial and lateral runout occurs due to imprecise rotation of the disc and tire.

100% rotation accuracy is not possible due to technical features.

Therefore, the manufacturer allows a clearly defined tolerance for these parts.

If the wheel and tire are mounted in an unfavorable position, this may result in the maximum allowable tolerance for the wheel and tire being exceeded.

Table 4.3 shows the maximum tolerance values for a rim with a mounted tyre.
