all passenger vehicle tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard No
.

.
Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance
on the laboratory test wheel, than the minimum required by law
.
WARNING!
The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that is properly
inflated and not overloaded
.
Excessive speed, under-inflation, or excessive
loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat buildup and
possible tire failure
.
TIRE ROTATION RECOMMENDATIONS
NOTE:
The front and rear wheels are different sizes and cannot be used in place of each other
.
Rotate the wheels “side-to-side” as shown in the diagram
.
The tires on the front and rear of your
vehicle operate at different loads and per-
form different steering, driving, and braking
functions
.
For these reasons, they wear at
unequal rates
.
These effects can be reduced by timely
rotation of tires
.
The benefits of rotation
are especially worthwhile with aggressive
tread designs such as those on all season
type tires
.
Rotation will increase tread life, help to maintain mud, snow and wet traction
levels, and contribute to a smooth, quiet ride
.
Refer to the “Maintenance Schedule” for the proper maintenance intervals
.
The reasons
for any rapid or unusual wear should be corrected prior to rotation being performed
.
