Life Of Tire
The service life of a tire is dependent upon
varying factors including, but not limited to:
•
Driving style.
•
Tire pressure - Improper cold tire inflation
pressures can cause uneven wear patterns to
develop across the tire tread. These abnor-
mal wear patterns will reduce tread life, re-
sulting
in the need for earlier tire
replacement.
•
Distance driven.
•
Performance tires, tires with a speed rating of
V or higher, and Summer tires typically have
a reduced tread life. Rotation of these tires
per the vehicle’s Service and Warranty Hand-
book is highly recommended.
WARNING!
Tires and the spare tire should be replaced
after six years, regardless of the remaining
tread. Failure to follow this warning can result
in sudden tire failure. You could lose control
and have a collision resulting in serious injury
or death.
Keep dismounted tires in a cool, dry place with
as little exposure to light as possible. Protect
tires from contact with oil, grease, and gasoline.
Replacement Tires
The tires on your new vehicle provide a balance
of many characteristics. They should be in-
spected regularly for wear and correct cold tire
inflation pressures. The manufacturer strongly
recommends that you use tires equivalent to the
originals in size, quality and performance when
replacement is needed. Refer to the paragraph
on “Tread Wear Indicators” in this section. Refer
to the Tire and Loading Information placard or
the Vehicle Certification Label for the size des-
ignation of your tire. The Load Index and Speed
Symbol for your tire will be found on the original
equipment tire sidewall.
It is recommended to replace the two front tires
or two rear tires as a pair. Replacing just one tire
can seriously affect your vehicle’s handling. If
you ever replace a wheel, make sure that the
wheel’s specifications match those of the origi-
nal wheels.
It is recommended you contact your authorized
tire dealer or original equipment dealer with any
questions you may have on tire specifications or
capability. Failure to use equivalent replacement
tires may adversely affect the safety, handling,
and ride of your vehicle.
WARNING!
•
Do not use a tire, wheel size, load rating, or
speed rating other than that specified for
your vehicle. Some combinations of unap-

proved tires and wheels may change sus-
pension dimensions and performance char-
acteristics, resulting in changes to steering,
handling, and braking of your vehicle. This
can cause unpredictable handling and stress
to steering and suspension components. You
could lose control and have a collision result-
ing in serious injury or death. Use only the
tire and wheel sizes with load ratings ap-
proved for your vehicle.
•
Never use a tire with a smaller load index
or capacity, other than what was originally
equipped on your vehicle. Using a tire with
a smaller load index could result in tire
overloading and failure. You could lose
control and have a collision.
•
Failure to equip your vehicle with tires
having adequate speed capability can re-
sult in sudden tire failure and loss of ve-
hicle control.
CAUTION!
Replacing original tires with tires of a different
size may result in false speedometer and
odometer readings.
