Checking Disc Wheels

Checking the radial and lateral runout
The measuring points for radial and lateral runout on the inside of the wheel are given on the following drawing (dimension "a").
Maximum permissible radial runout and lateral runout of the light alloy wheels = 0.7 mm.
Maximum permissible radial runout and lateral runout of the wheel with tire = 1.25 mm. Values less than 1.0 mm - better around 0.5 mm - are desirable.






Important: Straightening and welding work on light alloy wheels is not permissible.






Note: Use a tire measuring gauge - e.g. V.A.G. 1435 to measure wheels without tires and wheels with tires.
