WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2023 BMW M240i xDrive, 2023 BMW M240i, 2023 BMW 230i xDrive, 2023 BMW 230i, and 2022 BMW M240i xDrive. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Optimize the tire bead (1) fit on the inside and the outer side after inflating the tire.
The tire bead must lie flush against the wheel rim without air pockets. This optimizes the smooth running of the tire.
- Gently press in the tire sidewall and the wheel rim with the tire bead breaker (2).
- Turn the wheel.
The air between the tire and the rim escapes.
- Balance the tires.
