The weight limits of your vehicle's tires affect
the GVWR or GAWR limitations. Usage of
replacement tires with higher weight limit than
originals does not increase GVWR or GAWR.
Usage of lower capacity replacement tires may
lower GVWR and GAWR limitations.
*
[DR22000(ALL)02/95]
RWARNING
If the GVWR or the GAWR specified
on the Safety Compliance
Certification Label is exceeded, your
vehicle may be damaged or you may
lose control and injure someone.

Replacing the Tires
[SV25800(ALL)01/89]
We recommend that you use all-weather tires
when you replace your tires.
*
[SV25900(ALL)01/95]
Replace any tires that show wear bands. When
your tire shows a wear band, it has only 1/16
inch (1.59 mm) of tread left.

A worn-out tire
*
[SV26175(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.
*
[SV26300(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.

Tires that are larger or smaller than your
vehicle's original tires may also affect the
accuracy of your speedometer.
