WHO IS COVEREDThe owner of a BFGoodrich Passenger or Light Truck tire
which bears the BFGoodrich name and complete DOT
identification number.
WHAT IS COVERED AND FOR HOW LONG
BFGoodrich Passenger and Light Truck tires, used in
normal service on the vehicle on which they were originally
fitted and in accordance with the maintenance recommen-
dations and safety warnings contained in the owner’s
manual and in the Important Tire Safety Information Sec-
tion of this booklet, are covered by this warranty against
defects in workmanship and material for the life of the
original usable tread, or 6 years from the date of purchase,
whichever comes first. At that time, all warranties, express
or implied, are terminated. The usable tread is the original
tread down to the level of the tread wear indicators - 2/
32nds of an inch (1.6mm) of tread remaining. Date of
purchase is documented by new vehicle registration or tire
sales invoice. If no proof of purchase, coverage will be
based on date of manufacture.
WHAT IS NOT COVEREDTires which become unserviceable due to:
• Road hazard injury (e.g., a cut, snag, bruise, impact damage, puncture, whether repairable or not);
• Incorrect mounting of the tire, tire/wheel imbalance, or improper repair;
• Underinflation, overinflation, improper maintenance or other abuse;
• Mechanical irregularity in the vehicle such as wheel
misalignment resulting in uneven or rapid wear;
• Accident, fire, chemical corrosion, tire alteration, or vandalism;
• Ozone or weather cracking.
WHAT BFGOODRICH WILL DO
PASSENGER AND LIGHT TRUCK TIRES
A tire which becomes unserviceable due to a condition
covered by this warranty will be replaced with a compa-
rable new BFGoodrich tire, free of charge, when 2/32nds
of an inch (1.6mm) or less of the original tread is worn, (or
25% or less, whichever is most beneficial to the user) and
within 12 months of the date of purchase. Mounting and
balancing of tires is included. The cost of any other service
charges and applicable taxes are payable by the user.
When more than 2/32nds of an inch of original tread has
been worn (or more than 25%, whichever is most benefi-
cial to the user) or after 12 months from date of purchase,
the user must pay the cost of a comparable new
BFGoodrich passenger or light truck replacement tire on
a pro rata basis. The dealer shall determine the charge by
multiplying the percentage of the original usable tread
worn by the current actual selling price at the adjustment
location or the price on the current BFGoodrich Brand
Base Price List, whichever is lower. This List is based on
a predetermined price intended to fairly represent the
actual selling price of the tire. The cost of mounting,
balancing and any other service charges and applicable
taxes are payable by the user.

CONDITIONS & EXCLUSIONS
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BRIDGESTONE/
FIRESTONE, INC. DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR ANY
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSS OF TIME, OR
LOSS OF VEHICLE USE, OR INCONVENIENCE.
Some states do no allow the exclusion or limitation of
incidental or consequential damages, so the above limita-
tion or exclusion may not apply to you.
This warranty applies only to consumers actually using the
tire in the United States and Canada. For warranty condi-
tions outside the United States and Canada, see your local
Bridgestone or Firestone distributor.
Obligations under this policy may not be enlarged or
altered by anyone.
Important: In accordance with Federal Law, this warranty
has been designated as a “Limited Warranty”. Nothing in
this warranty is intended to be a representation that tire
failures cannot occur. This warranty is given by Bridgestone/
Firestone, Inc., One Bridgestone Park, Nashville, TN 37214
and in Canada by Bridgestone Canada, Inc., 5770
Hurontario St. Suite 400, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada
L5R 3G5.
OWNER-USER’S OBLIGATIONIt is owner-user’s obligation to operate tires within tire load
and specification limits and at cold air pressures specified by your vehicle manufacturer for load and speed according
to individual tire size, type, and load capacity. It is also the
owner-user’s obligation to maintain proper alignment of

SAFETY INFORMATIONAny tire, no matter how well constructed, may fail in use
as a result of punctures, impact damage, improper
inflation, overloading, or other conditions resulting
from use or misuse. Tire failure may create a risk of
serious personal injury or property damage. To reduce
risk of tire failure, we strongly recommend you read and
follow all safety information contained in the Important
Tire Safety Information section contained in this book-
let, the tire placard in the vehicle or the Owner’s
Manual.
BRIDGESTONE/FIRESTONE TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY

21
tire explosion resulting in vehicle damage and/or serious
personal injury to you or a bystander. Never exceed 35
mph/60 km/h as indicated on your speedometer. Use a
gentle backward and forward rocking motion to free your
vehicle for continued driving. Never stand near or behind a
tire spinning at high speed as, for example, while attempt-
ing to push a vehicle that is stuck or when an on-the-car
spin balance machine is in use.
DO CHECK YOUR TIRES FOR WEAR
Always remove tires from service when they reach two
thirty-seconds of an inch (2/32") remaining tread depth. All
new tires have treadwear indicators which appear as
smooth banks in the tread grooves when they wear to the
two thirty-seconds of an inch (2/32") level. Many wet
weather accidents result from skidding on bald or nearly
bald tires. Excessively worn tires are also more susceptible
to penetrations.
SIDEWALL TREATMENTSDunlop sidewalls are specially compounded to resist ozone
cracking or weather-cracking.
Use a mild soap solution to clean sidewalls, white striping
or lettering, and rinse off with plain water. Instruct service
per-sonnel and customers never to apply any other mate-
rial to enhance sidewall appearance. These may degrade
rubber and remove inherent ozone resistance.
DO CHECK YOUR TIRES FOR DAMAGEFrequent inspection of your tires for signs of damage and
their general condition is important for safety. If you have
any questions, have your tire dealer inspect them. Impacts,
penetrations, cracks, knots, bulges, or air loss always
require tire removal and expert inspection. Never perform
a temporary repair or use an innertube as a substitute for a proper repair. Only qualified persons should repair tires.
PROPER TIRE REPAIRNOTE
: Dunlop does not warrant any inspection or repair
process. The repair is entirely the responsibility of the
repairer and should be made in accordance with estab-
lished Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA) proce-
dures.
DON’T ATTEMPT TO MOUNT
YOUR OWN TIRES
Serious injury may result from explosion of tire/rim assem-
bly due to improper mounting procedures. Follow tire
manufacturer’s instructions and match tire diameter to rim
surfaces. Lock assembly on mounting machine or place in
safety cage. STAND BACK and never exceed 40 psi to
seat beads. Never use a volatile substance or a rubber
“donut” (also known as a bead expander or “O-Ring”) to
aid bead seating. Only specially trained persons should
mount tires.
DON’T MIX TIRES OF DIFFERENT SIZES
AND TYPES ON THE SAME AXLE
For optimum handling and control, Dunlop recommends
fitment of four (4) tires of the same type and size unless
otherwise specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
FOLLOW THESE ADDITIONAL
GUIDELINES:
Fit newest tires on rear axle. If radials and non-radials must
be fitted to the same vehicle, fit radials on rear axle. Never
mix radials and non-radials on the same axle. When fitting
snow tires or all-season tires to performance vehicles,
always fit in sets for four. Do not fit tires with different speed ratings.
Use of lift kits with some vehicle/tire combinations can
cause instability. When changing tire sizes, always consult
dealer for optimum rim width and carefully check vehicle/
tire clearances.
RETREADED TIRESRetreaded passenger and light truck tires are not war-
ranted by Dunlop for any reason. Dunlop speed ratings and
U.S. Department of Transportation test compliance certi-
fications are voided for retreaded tires.
DO MAINTAIN VEHICLE SUSPENSION,
WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCE
AND ROTATE YOUR TIRES
Lack of rotation, worn suspension parts, underinflation/
over-inflation, wheel imbalance, and misalignment can
cause vibration or irregular tire wear. Rotate your tires
according to your vehicle manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions or at maximum intervals of 6,000 miles/10,000 km.
LIGHTWEIGHT TEMPORARY SPARE
TIRES IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
• Limit vehicle speed when using the lightweight tempo-
rary spare tire to 50 mph/80 km/h or less.
• Check the inflation pressure before using and at least weekly. Maintain cold tire pressure in accordance with
that molded on the tire sidewall or found in your vehicle
owner’s manual. When inflating or adding air to light-
weight temporary spare tire, be very careful, since the
smaller tire volume can gain pressure quickly. Leave

fication number.
WHAT IS COVERED AND FOR HOW LONG
Michelin Passenger and Light Truck tires, used in normal
service on the vehicle on which they were originally fitted
and in accordance with the maintenance recommenda-
tions and safety warnings contained in the owner’s manual
and in the Important Tire Safety Information Section of this
booklet, are covered by this warranty against defects in
workmanship and material for the life of the original usable
tread, or 6 years from the date of purchase, whichever
comes first. At that time, all warranties, express or implied,
are terminated. The usable tread is the original tread down
to the level of the tread wear indicators - 2/32nds of an inch
(1.6mm) of tread remaining. Date of purchase is docu-
mented by new vehicle registration or tire sales invoice. If
no proof of purchase, coverage will be based on date of
manufacture.WHAT IS NOT COVEREDTires which become unserviceable due to:
