VEHICLE CARE

After changing to winter tires, be alert
for changes in vehicle handling and
braking.

If using winter tires:

.

Use tires of the same brand and
tread type on all four wheel
positions.

.

Use only radial ply tires of the same
size, load range, and speed rating as
the original equipment tires.

Winter tires with the same speed
rating as the original equipment tires
may not be available for H, V, W, Y,
and ZR speed rated tires. If winter
tires with a lower speed rating are
chosen, never exceed the tire's
maximum speed capability.

Low-Profile Tires

If the vehicle has 275/50R22 size
tires, they are classified as
low-profile tires.

Caution

susceptible to damage from road
hazards or curb impact than

standard profile tires. Tire and/or
wheel assembly damage can occur
when coming into contact with
road hazards like potholes, or sharp
edged objects, or when sliding into
a curb. The warranty does not cover
this type of damage. Keep tires set
to the correct inflation pressure and
when possible, avoid contact with
curbs, potholes, and other road
hazards.
