Towing With the Back Wheels Off the
Ground
[RE13100(ALL)03/94]
For automatic and manual transaxle vehicles, if
it is necessary to tow your vehicle from the rear

the following procedure:
[RE13120(ALL)04/93]
1. Place the front wheels on wheel dollies.

[SV26700(ALL)05/95]
Replace any tires that show wear bands. When
your tire shows a wear band, it has only 1/16
inch (2 mm) of tread left.

[SV26800(ALL)09/89]
quarter page art:0060006-A
A worn-out tire
*
[SV26900(ALL)01/95]
Because your vehicle's tires may wear unevenly,
you may need to replace them before a wear
band appears across the entire tread. Some spots
wear more heavily than others.
*
[SV27000(ALL)01/95]
RWARNING
When replacing full size tires, never mix
radial, bias-belted, or bias-type tires. Use
only the tire sizes that are listed on the
tire pressure decal. Make sure that all tires
are the same size, speed rating, and
load-carrying capacity. Use only the tire
combinations recommended on the decal.
If you do not follow these precautions,
your vehicle may not drive properly and
safely.
*
[SV27100(ALL)01/95]
Tires that are larger or smaller than your
vehicle's original tires may also affect the
accuracy of your speedometer.
*
[SV27200(ALL)04/95]
Wheel and Tire Matching
*
[SV27250(ALL)03/95]
See an authorized tire dealer for proper
servicing procedures. Wheels and tires must be
properly removed, matched and remounted to
maintain the best possible ride.
