YOUR PASSPORT TO THE ALPS. MINI GENUINE WINTER COMPLETE WHEEL SETS 2017/18.

KEEP RIGHT ON TRACK. As a MINI driver, you are a true original. And this individuality doesn t stop when the winter comes. When rain, ice and snow are around, the important thing is: Outstanding safety combined with pure driving pleasure. No other piece of equipment has such an great influence on handling and safety as wheels and tyres. At temperatures below 7 C, MINI Genuine Winter Tyres already show clear advantages compared to summer tyres. They are perfectly matched to your MINI model and give you not only grip, but, with their new designs, also your own unmistakeable style on the road. MINI GENUINE WINTER COMPLETE WHEEL SETS. In the pages that follow, find out why MINI Genuine Winter Complete Wheel Sets mean that the pleasure of driving can continue throughout the cold and rainy months and discover an attractive range of solutions for your MINI model. Find the MINI Genuine Winter Complete Wheel Set that is ideal for you. Just go to https://www.mini.co.uk/en_gb/home/accessories/ mini-wheel-configurator.html

4 MINI GENUINE WINTER TYRES. GIVE THE TEMPERATURE THE COLD SHOULDER. Performance Level Winter tyres Summer tyres Highly recommended Not recommended + 40 + 20 + 0-20 Temperature ( C) Safety first: MINI Genuine Winter Tyres. When the temperature drops below 7 C, summer tyres no longer perform at their best because their rubber compounds go hard at low temperatures. On wet or snow-covered road surfaces in particular, this has a negative influence on adhesion, steering and handling. Winter tyres are made from special rubber compounds formulated to withstand the cold so that they continue to grip even when the temperature drops.

MINI GENUINE WINTER TYRES. 5 Winter tyres compulsory GOOD REASONS FOR CHOOSING MINI GENUINE WINTER TYRES: Winter tyres partly compulsory Winter tyres compulsory on some routes Winter tyres not compulsory below 7 C Below 7 degrees. As soon as the temperature drops below 7 C, winter tyres have clear advantages over summer tyres. No responsibility is accepted for the accuracy of this information. LEGAL REQUIREMENTS: In many European countries, winter tyres are compulsory. These tyres have to be fitted whenever there is ice, hard-packed snow, slushy snow, black ice or slippery frost all conditions that can occur early on in the winter season. Failure to comply can result in fines and, in the case of an accident, insurance cover may be curtailed. Find out about the required minimum depths of tread from your MINI Retailer and arrange for a tyre change in good time. Key: Snow chain compatible wheels. up to 40% up to 10% up to 50% Wear. Due to the temperature, summer tyres wear more quickly in the winter. The same is true of winter tyres that are used during the summer. Braking in wet conditions. In cold, wet weather, winter tyres reduce the braking distance by up to 10% compared to summer tyres. Braking on snow. In icy conditions, winter tyres reduce the braking distance by up to 50% compared to summer tyres.

6 STAR MARKING. TAILOR-MADE STAR MARKING. To ensure optimum handling and driving pleasure, MINI Genuine Tyres are designed to harmonise with your vehicle s chassis and model-specific requirements. Only tyres that provide the characteristic MINI handling and meet our high standards at 100% in numerous tests are marked with a star. BENEFITS THAT MAKE THE DIFFERENCE. star marking - Outstanding safety on wet or dry roads and at high speeds. - Individually adapted, tested and developed for the vehicle and wheel control systems. - Extremely durable, with the performance needed for long lived driving pleasure.

RUN-FLAT TECHNOLOGY. 7 A TECHNOLOGY THAT KEEPS GOING AND GOING. To make sure that a flat tyre does not become a safety risk, tyres with run-flat technology have specially reinforced side walls. Even with no pressure at all, the run-flat tyre allows a loaded vehicle to continue to travel for a distance of approximately 50m at 50mph. With MINI Genuine Tyres with run-flat technology, you also benefit from extra boot space because no spare tyre or mobility set is needed. Without run-flat technology With run-flat technology run-flat technology THE BENEFITS AT A GLANCE. - Drive up to another 50m at max. 50mph after a flat tyre (assuming moderate vehicle load). - Tyre defect indicator warns you of a sudden loss of pressure. Less weight and more boot space. FIND OUT MORE ONLINE. You can find more information on MINI Genuine Tyres with star marking and run-flat technology online at: https://www.mini.co.uk/en_gb/home/accessories/ mini-wheel-configurator.html

8 TYRE PRESSURE CONTROL SYSTEM. 3 CRITERIA. 1 MARK. EU TYRE LABELLING. Since 2012, the EU tyre label has provided information about three tyre quality criteria: Fuel efficiency, wet grip and external noise emission. Fuel efficiency. Classes from G (lowest efficiency) to A (highest efficiency). The level of fuel savings depends primarily on the vehicle and the driving conditions. Important note: The driver s personal driving behaviour is the factor with the greatest influence on the vehicle s fuel efficiency. The difference between the tyre fuel efficiency classes amounts at most to a reduction in consumption of 0.15 l per 60m. If you drive, for example, with the air conditoining system, this saving is reduced. Wet grip. Classes from F (longest braking distance) to A (shortest braking distance). The tyre grip depends primarily on the vehicle and the driving conditions. When the driver has to brake hard, the braking distance of a vehicle fully quipped with class A tyres can be up to 30% shorter than that of a vehicle with class F tyres. Important note: Winter tyres are tested under the same conditions (20 C) as summer tyres. Because winter tyres are optimised for temperatures of below 7 C, the indicated value does not provide any information about their behaviour in winter temperatures or on ice and snow. External noise emission. The value of the external noise emission from the tyres is indicated in decibels. Each additional black wave in the diagram representsan increase in the external noise emission. Important note: The external noise emission value provides little information about the noise levels inside the vehicle. THE HEART OF THE MATTER. THE TYRE PRESSURE CONTROL SYSTEM (TPCS). Due to changes in the requirements, MINI has fitted models released since July 2014 with an active tyre pressure control system (TPCS) as standard. Please ask your MINI Retailer for more information. THE BENEFITS TO YOU: - TPCS sensors are installed in all four wheels and continuously measure the individual tyre pressures to a very high level of precision. - At a critical pressure (20% below the nominal pressure or the minimum pressure of 1.7 bar), the system immediately issues an alarm. - You can also view the tyre pressure of all wheels in the vehicle s control display quickly and conveniently at any time. Manual inspection at each of the tyres is no longer necessary.

MINI GENUINE LIGHT ALLOY WHEELS. 9 POWER AND ELEGANCE FOR THE WINTER. Be unmistakeable. The styling of the wheels has a particularly long-lasting impact on the character of your MINI. Ensuring that the light alloy wheels blend harmoniously with the overall vehicle impression demands an intensive design process that starts early on in the development of a new vehicle. And it is not just the visual appearance that counts every wheel is painstakingly designed to meet the specific requirements. Different technologies and manufacturing processes are used depending on whether the emphasis is placed on design, sportiness or aerodynamic performance. For us, outstanding quality is not a question but the answer, so that you get to your destination safely and can enjoy all the pleasure of driving. CHOOSE YOUR TYRES ONLINE. Thanks to the MINI Complete Wheel Configurator, you can see how your new wheels would look on your MINI before purchase. By MINI for MINI nothing works better than a tailor-made solution.

OFFERS. 21 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS. Do I really need winter tyres? Wintry road surfaces and snowy conditions are just one aspect. The most important consideration, however, are low outdoor temperatures, at which the rubber compounds used in winter tyres offer a significantly better grip. The temperature at which rubbers start to harden is known as the glass transition temperature. In summer tyres, this temperature is generally of the order of + 7 C, whereas in winter tyres it is between 20 and 25 C. In snowy, icy conditions, the specially designed laminated treads also make an important contribution: They efficiently ensure traction and lanekeeping at all times as well as shorter braking distances. That is why, in winter, MINI recommends only using winter tyres with a tread depth of at least 4 mm. Are M+S tyres (Mud & Snow) enough for the winter? The M+S label on its own is not enough because it is not a protected mark and can also be applied to tyres that are unsuitable for winter use. The presence of the snowflake symbol indicates that the tyre is suitable for use in winter and that it must provide a minimum level of traction on ice and snow. SNOW CHAINS. The snow chains have been exclusively designed for MINI Tyres and are easy to install. For optimum traction on ice and snow. Available for many different MINI models. Please contact your MINI Centre for more information. All MINI Genuine Complete Wheel Sets are fitted with star marked tyres.

22 TYRE PRESSURE CONTROL SYSTEM. FOCUS ON CONTROL. THE TYRE PRESSURE CONTROL SYSTEM (TPCS). MINI Genuine Winter Complete Wheel Sets are ideally adapted for use with your vehicle model. Consult your MINI Retailer to find out whether your vehicle is equipped with a tyre pressure control system and which tyres are best suited for your needs. THE BENEFITS TO YOU: - TPCS sensors are installed in all four wheels and continuously measure the individual tyre pressures to a very high level of precision. - At a critical pressure (20% below the nominal pressure or the minimum pressure of 1.7 bar), the system immediately issues an alarm. - You can also view the tyre pressure at all the wheels in the vehicle s control display quickly and conveniently at any time. Manual inspection at each of the tyres is no longer necessary.

TYRE PRESSURE CONTROL SYSTEM. 23 ALL-ROUND SAFETY. Why is having the correct tyre pressure so important? You benefit from greater safety. Having the correct tyre pressure reduces the risk of tyre damage and consequently increases your safety. Tyres can only ensure the optimum contact surface on the road and provide the best possible performance during fast, agile driving and avoidance or braking manoeuvres if they are properly inflated. You improve your fuel consumption. Correctly inflated tyres generate less rolling resistance. This has a positive impact on fuel consumption. Your tyres will last for longer. When tyres are over-inflated, wear in the centre of the contact surface increases; if they are under-inflated, wear increases at the inner and outer sides of the contact surface near the side walls. Making sure that the tyre pressure is correct increases the life expectancy of the tyre. You have the tools you need to care for your tyres. - The pressure of tyres fitted on vehicles without a tyre pressure control system should be checked every two weeks. - Simply adjusting to the correct pressure every 4 to 6 months significantly increases the life expectancy of tyres and improves safety. What you have to think about when buying complete wheel sets: - On vehicles with tyre pressure control systems, complete wheel sets on their own must be fitted with the correct TPCS sensors. - It is not usually possible to transfer complete wheel sets without TPCS sensors or complete wheel sets from vehicles built before 07/2014. This requires the TPCS sensors to be retrofitted to the individual wheels and involves additional work and expense. - Your MINI centre would be happy to advise you and provide you with a quotation.
