  • Pay close attention to the installation instructions.

- The wheel must be inspected before mounting, as with conventional wheel/tire systems.

- The wheels should be checked for damage after a flat tire (true running, axial run-out, other damage) because the wheel could be damaged in an emergency by driving through a pothole.
