Demonstration Area: UHP and runflat tires

The times when the majority of passenger car tyres consisted of 14'-17' inch tires are long gone. Low-profile dimensions, wheel diameters up to 20' and tires with run-flat properties are already standard equipment in the mid-range vehicle class. The trend towards SUVs/hybrids and electric vehicles is further strengthening this development.

Therefore, for a professional, damage-free fitting of these tires, appropriate machine equipment and training of the fitters are required.

The "wdk-certified fitting of UHP and run-flat tyres" action area supported by BRV and wdk showed, which fitting process and conditions and machine equipment is required to ensure a professional and safe fitting of even the most difficult wheel/tyre combinations.
