Tyre Size Approval

[barry]

I’ve obtained some of these with 155/70 R13 tyres fitted. Unfortunately here in Portugal tyre size is a detail shown on the vehicle registration doc - so if it shows 135 R13 (the original) this is what must be fitted.
It can be changed, but only with manufacturer’s approval. Can anyone offer guidance on how to seek it please?
Thanks, Barry

Hi, try send an email to contacto.cliente@renault.pt, with the subject " Averbamento de Jantes e Pneumáticos"

Thank you DAA. I’ll try it and report on progress

Just out of interest have you done this yourself? With success?
Thanks again for the info.

I'm waiting for Renault feedback

Same here! Sent email per your advice and got a reply giving a process number and asking for the car registration doc. Have just sent them a scan of that so with a bit of luck may get a reply next week.

Have you heard anything yet? I got a reply saying 4 or 4.5 in. rims are OK (the alloys are 5.25!) but no mention at all of tyres so I replied asking which tyre widths are OK. Still waiting on that. Just out of interest they called me Bruno Silva when replying, so seems to be some confusion there!

It was the same with me, they didn't gave all the sizes, asked for what i want for verification.
I sent what I want and now I'm waiting..

Probably they mix your request with someone
