Low aspect ratio tire (if
equipped)
Low aspect ratio tires, whose aspect
ratio is lower than 50, are provided for
sporty looks.
Because the low aspect ratio tires are
optimized for handling and braking, it
may be more uncomfortable to ride in
and there is more noise compared with
normal tires.
CAUTION
Because the sidewall of the low aspect
ratio tire is shorter than the normal, the
wheel and tire of the low aspect ratio tire
is easier to be damaged. So, follow the
instructions below.
僅 When driving on a rough road or off
road, drive cautiously because tires
and wheels may be damaged. And
after driving, inspect tires and wheels.
僅 When passing over a pothole, speed

slowly so that the tires and wheels are
