Tire Information (U.S.A.)

 Replacing  a  Tire

WARNING

  Always use tires that are in good condition:

  Driving with worn tires is dangerous. Reduced braking, steering, and traction could result 
in an accident.

  If a tire wears evenly, a wear indicator will appear as a solid band across the tread.
  Replace the tire when this happens.

New tread

Worn tread

  You should replace the tire before the band crosses the entire tread.

   NOTE

  Tires degrade over time, even when they are not being used on the road. It is recommended 
that tires generally be replaced when they are 6 years or older. Heat caused by hot climates 
or frequent high loading conditions can accelerate the aging process. You should replace the 
spare tire when you replace the other road tires due to the aging of the spare tire. The period 
in which the tire was manufactured (both week and year) is indicated by a 4-digit number.
  Refer to Tire Labeling on page  8-24 .
