Volkswagen Golf Service & Repair Manual: Permissible deviation in tread depth
| Only tyres of the same construction and tread pattern should
be used on all four wheels. |
| Always fit the tyres with the deeper tread to the front
axle. |
| It is basically possible to replace tyres individually.
However, the vehicle manufacturer recommends replacing at least
both tyres on an axle at the same time. |
| On vehicles with rear sport differential, the vehicle
manufacturer recommends that you always replace both rear tyres
at the same time. |
 Note
| These restrictions apply, because an excessive difference in
the rolling circumference may result in overheat in the gear
oil. |
| The difference between the front and rear axle must not be
more than 3 mm. |
