CAUTION!

Tires of same type and tread pattern must be
used on cars with All Wheel Drive (otherwise
risk of damage to central differential).

- Check tread wear pattern:
Tread wear pattern on front tires is an indication
of whether toe and camber settings need to be
checked:
"Feathering" on tread indicates incorrect toe.
If tread is worn on one side, this is usually
caused by incorrect camber.
If wear of this nature is noticed, check wheel
alignment.
