Volkswagen Polo Service & Repair Manual: Tire Service Life, Influences
| The following factors influence the service life of a tire

| If a “lowering-kit” and /or light alloy wheels from
accessories which have not been approved by the vehicle
manufacturer are used, wheel alignments which deviate from the

paths of travel of the wheel suspension. |
