Volkswagen Golf Service & Repair Manual: Checking radial and lateral runout of wheels and tyres, tolerances
| Radial and lateral run-out occur when the wheel and tyre do
not run absolutely true. |
| For technical reasons, 100% true running is not possible. |
| Therefore, the manufacturers of these components allow a
precisely determined tolerance. |
| Aligning the tyre in an unfavourable position on the wheel
can cause the maximum allowed tolerance for wheel with tyre to
be exceeded. |
| The table shows the maximum permissible tolerances for a
wheel with mounted tyre. |
