Recommendations for Use and Maintenance of the Nankang AW-6 195/55 R16

• Always verify the tyre size using the vehicle registration document or the sticker on the door pillar before purchase.
• It is recommended to install tyres in sets of four for all season tyres to ensure optimal performance in all weather conditions and maximum safety.
• Regularly check the correct tyre pressure and tread condition, especially before seasonal weather changes.
• During the first 200 km with new tyres, accelerate and brake gently to allow proper break-in and to extend tyre lifespan.
• Balancing and wheel alignment: After installing the tyres, wheel balancing and a wheel alignment check are recommended to ensure even wear and safe handling.
• Regular rotation: For all season tyres, rotating tyres every 10,000–12,000 km helps ensure even wear across all four tyres and extends their overall lifespan.
• Tread depth monitoring: Check tread depth regularly, especially before winter months. The legal minimum in the UK is 1.6 mm, but for optimal all season performance, consider replacement at 3 mm.
• Off-season storage: If switching between tyre sets, store tyres in a dry, cool, and dark place, avoiding direct sunlight and heat sources. Ideally, tyres should be stored upright or on special tyre racks to prevent deformation.
