WARNING
Using unsuitable hubcaps, or fitting them incorrectly, can cause accidents and serious injuries.
Incorrectly fitted hubcaps can become loose while the vehicle is in motion and endanger other road users.
● Do not use damaged hubcaps.
● Make sure that the airflow to cool the brakes is never restricted or reduced. This also applies if hubcaps are
retrofitted. If the airflow is not sufficient, the braking distance could increase significantly.
