WARNING: Have worn tires replaced in

speed with new tires

same type and make fitted

punctured and then repaired

Operating, storage, driving, load,
vehicle dynamics and external
conditions such as temperature
and/or ultraviolet light may affect tire
service life. Please have your McLaren
dealer or a tire service professional
conduct a complete inspection of your
demounted tires if you are
experiencing ride disturbance or have
questions about the condition of your
tires. McLaren recommends that tires
are replaced every 6 years, or sooner if

or when using snow traction
devices, tires other than those
