Wheels and Tires: Description and Operation

Overview of tyres and wheels
^ An overview of tyres and wheels can in found in the Technical Information (TI).
^ When replacing tyres, always fit only one make and type of tyre and tyres that have the same tyre specification code. The specification codes (for example NO, N1,...) distinguish between the tyres that have been specially approved by Porsche and other models of the same tyre type and size.
^ When fitting the wheel on the vehicle, observe the fitting specifications.

Notes on fitting tyres
^ When fitting tyres, the direction of rotation and the inner and outer sides should be noted.
^ Each time a gear set or wheel is changed this must be communicated to the control module, in particular if the positions of the wheels have been changed. The tyre type and tyre size must always be selected in the instrument cluster under Main menu > Tyre pressure > Settings. During the journey the control module then re-learns the wheel positions.
