MOBILITY Wheels and tires200Otherwise, tire damage can be extremely dan-gerous for vehicle occu pants and other road users. <Tire ageThe manufacturing date of tires is contained in the tire coding: DOT ... 0212 means that the tire was manufac-tured during the 2nd week of 2012.For various reasons, such as the development of brittleness, the manufacturer of your MINI rec-ommends tire replacemen t after no more than 6 years, regardless of the actual wear of the tires.Run-flat tiresThe symbol identifying run-flat tires is a circle with the letters RSC on the sidewall.Run-flat tires comprise a conditionally self-sup-porting tire and a special rim. The reinforcement in the sidewalls ensures that the tire can con-tinue to be used subject to certain restrictions, even if depressurized.For information on continui ng to drive with a flat tire, refer to Indication of a flat tire, page 73 .New wheels and tiresHave new wheels and tires mounted only by your MINI dealer or a specialized tire shop that has specially trained personnel work-ing in accordance with the specifications of the MINI manufacturer.

The manufacturer of your MINI can-not evaluate non-approved wheels and tires to determine if they are suited for use, and there-fore cannot ensure the operating safety of the vehicle if they are mounted. <Your MINI dealer will be glad to inform you about the correct wheel an d tire combination for your vehicle.The correct combination of wheels and tires is also necessary to ensure reliable operation of various vehicle systems such as ABS and DSC.To maintain good handling and vehicle response, use only tires of a single brand and tread configuration.
