If the vehicle is heavily loaded, check the tire pressures and correct them if necessary.
While driving, pay attention to vibrations, noises and unusual handling characteristics, e.g. pulling to one side. This may indicate that the wheels or tires are damaged. If you suspect that a tire is defective, reduce your speed immediately. Stop the vehicle as soon as possible to check the wheels and tires for damage. Hidden tire damage could also be causing the unusual handling characteristics.
If you find no signs of damage, have the tires and wheels checked at a qualified specialist workshop.
When parking your vehicle, make sure that the tires do not get deformed by the curb or other obstacles. If it is necessary to drive over curbs, speed humps or similar elevations, try to do so slowly and at an obtuse angle.
Otherwise, the tires, particularly the sidewalls, may be damaged.
