Tyre Seating Pressure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2020 Porsche Panamera, 2019 Porsche Panamera, 2018 Porsche Panamera, and 2017 Porsche Panamera. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Indicates the filling pressure after the tyre has been fitted on the rim, at which the tyre bead must pop over the hump of the rim bead.

This seating pressure must not exceed 4 bar.

In certain cases, it may be necessary to measure radial force variations. This should be done before normal balancing is performed.

The entire process is subdivided into several operations:

  1. Fitting the tyre on the rim.
    1. Measuring radial force variations and optimizing the wheels, if necessary. Then balancing the wheels.
    2. As an alternative to item 2 A, if there is no device available to measure radial force variations: Stationary balancing of the wheel (eliminating static and dynamic imbalance) with rolling smoothness optimization.
  3. Fitting the wheel on the vehicle.
