Due to an engraving machine error, the rear wheel rims are incorrectly marked as 71/2 x18ch5-et35 instead of 81/2 x18ch5-et46. The actual rim and wheel specifications are correct at 81/2 x18ch5-et46. This may lead to improper tire fitting, causing tire damage and reduced vehicle stability and handling, increasing the risk of accidents and injury.
