Volkswagen Golf Service & Repair Manual: Run-flat tyre system PAX, checking support ring
| As with tyres, the support ring does not always need to be
renewed after driving with a flat tyre. |

|
| If the following damage can be observed, renew the support
ring: |
| Broken parts or missing sections |
|
|
|
| Tears in the running surface/separating walls |
|
|
|
| Blistering and discolouration due to overheating |
 Note
| Run-flat tyres (PAX) must not be repaired using a tyre patch
or similar. |
| Flat tyre sprays/foams must not be used with PAX tyres, as
these products are not compatible with the gel in the tyre. |
