Approved Tires, Wheels and Spacers (74/20)

Information
The tire pressure applies only to the tire makes and types approved by Porsche, and is specified for cold
tires (approx. 68° F/20°C ). The tire pressures must never be lower than the specified values.

Information
Improper handling can damage the wheel surface.
Carry out tire removal and mounting using a bead holding-down device only.
Use a leather pad on the rim flange to support the valve insertion tool.
Only use the Porsche centering clamping set for balancing.
Do not use brushes to clean the wheels because brushes can cause deep scratches that cannot be
removed by polishing.
Never use solvents or other chemical substances on tires.

Speed index: V = 240 km/h (150 mph), W = 270 km/h (165 mph)
Information
N... = Specification code of the tire, e.g. "N0", "N1", "N2" ... The complete "N ..." code of the tires in
question must be shown on the tire sidewall near the tire type designation.
Instructions for correct mounting of the tires are also given on the tire sidewall. If there are no mounting
instructions on the tire sidewall, the tire must be mounted so that the DOT marking is visible from the
outside.

Information
If a tire is damaged and it is not possible to determine with absolute certainty that there is no ply damage
- with all of its consequences - or if the tire was thermally and/or mechanically overloaded due to a loss of
pressure or other prior damage, replace the tire in question for safety reasons.
Repairs to "V", "W", "Y" and "ZR" tires are not permissable, as well as the use of inner tubes in tubeless
tires. Please inform your customers accordingly. It is advisable to mount winter tires at temperatures
below 45° F/7°C , because the driving characteristics of summer tires are reduced at low temperatures.
Extremely low temperatures can cause permanent damage to summer tires.
WARNING
Incorrect tire pressure
•

Uncontrollable vehicle handling



Adjust the tire pressure according to specifications. Never allow the pressure to fall below the minimum
pressure.



Check age of tires. Replace tires that are more than 6 years old.



Perform visual inspections.



Use new rubber valves at every tire change.



Use only tires approved by Porsche.
