Installation & Wheel Care

Installation & Care Instructions

Before mounting tyres to your wheels, make sure to check the clearance for the brake, hub, fender, and suspension. It's important to remember that mounted wheels cannot be returned. Only use equipment specifically designed for alloy wheels when mounting tyres to avoid scratching or damaging the finish, which would void the warranty. Additionally, wheel adaptors and spacers are not recommended. If used, the purchaser assumes all responsibility and liability for any issues that arise.

When balancing, always use self-adhesive tape weights, as clip-on style weights can damage the wheel finish and void the warranty. Be sure to use the correct type of lug nut, and follow the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications when tightening lug nuts. After driving for 75-100 miles, it’s recommended to re-torque the lug nuts.

If your vehicle is equipped with a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), reinstall the sensors into the wheels as required, following your vehicle’s manual for specifics.

Care & Maintenance

To maintain the "like new" finish of your wheels, it’s best to clean them regularly, ideally weekly. Always wait for your wheels to cool down before cleaning, as cleaning them while hot can cause damage. Use water and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner to wash your wheels. Avoid using cleaning solutions that aren’t safe for vehicle paint, as these may damage the wheels. After cleaning, apply a coat of non-abrasive carnauba-based auto wax for protection.

When cleaning, always avoid abrasive materials or scouring pads, as they can scratch the wheel’s finish. Be cautious with bristle brushes and take extra care in automatic car washes, as harsh chemicals or steam cleaners can cause permanent staining or corrosion. For clear-coated, painted, or machined finishes, clean with mild dish soap and water, drying with a soft cloth.

If you happen to hit a hard object, like a curb or pothole, or experience an accident, have your wheels inspected by a dealer or tyre retailer. If any damage is found, replace the wheel immediately to ensure safety.
