PASSENGER TIRES AND LIGHT TRUCK
TIRES LIMITED WARRANTYToyo Tire (U.S.A.) Corporation warrants Toyo brand
passenger tires, light truck tires and “T” Type temporary
spare tires mounted on vehicles as original equipment for
adjustable conditions as follows:
Important: In accordance with Federal Law, this warranty
has been designated as a “Limited Warranty.” Nothing in
this limited warranty is intended to be a representation that
tire failures cannot occur:WHAT IS COVERED BY THE LIMITED
WARRANTYToyo brand passenger tires, light truck tires and full size
spare tires are warranted for adjustable conditions for the
new, original usable tread until worn down to the tread wear
indicators (2/32
nds of an inch of tread remaining) or for 60
months from the date of purchase (as verifi ed by a copy
of the original new vehicle purchase invoice) , whichever
comes fi rst. In the event the original new vehicle purchase
invoice is unavailable, the DOT serial number will be used
to determine eligibility. See “What Is Not Covered” listed
below. Presence of a manufacturing anomaly is not neces-
sarily required to qualify for adjustment.
(1) When 25% or less of the original usable tread of a
radial tire has been worn, the tire will be replaced with
a comparable new Toyo tire free of charge, including
mounting and balancing. The original usable tread is
the original tread down to the level of the tread wear
indicators (2/32nds of an inch of tread remaining) .
Adjustments for ride disturbances or vibration, which
cannot be corrected by balancing, are only adjustable
in the fi rst 25% of usable tread (a set of four tires will
not be accepted for ride disturbance) . Service charges
or any applicable taxes are payable by you.(2) When more than 25% of the original usable tread
of a radial tire has been worn, the user must pay for
the cost of a comparable new Toyo replacement tire
based on the amount of tread used. This is calculated
by dividing the number of 32
nds of an inch used by
the original usable tread depth and multiplying by
the actual current dealer selling price. The original
usable tread is the original tread down to the level of
the tread wear indicators (2/32nds of an inch of tread
remaining) . Service charges or any applicable taxes
are payable by you.
(3) The tires must be used in normal highway service
on the vehicle they were originally installed, used in
non-commercial service and in accordance with the
maintenance recommendations and safety warnings
contained in the Owner’s Manual and in the Important
Tire Safety Information section of this booklet.
“T” TYPE TEMPORARY SPARE TIREIf an examination by Toyo shows that the “T” Type tempo-
rary spare tire does not conform to this limited warranty,
it will be replaced with a comparable new Toyo tire by an
authorized Toyo dealer as follows:
(1) When 50% or less of the original usable tread has
been worn, the tire will be replaced with a comparable
new Toyo tire free of charge. Mounting and balancing,
service charges or any applicable taxes are payable by
you.
(2) When more than 50% of the original usable tread has
been worn, you must pay for the cost of a comparable
new Toyo replacement tire based on the amount of
tread used. Mounting and balancing, service charges
or any applicable taxes are payable by you.(3) Limited warranty duration is the life of the original usable
tread (down to 2/32
nds of an inch of tread remaining)
or for 60 months from the date of purchase (as verifi ed
by a copy of the original new vehicle purchase invoice) ,
whichever comes fi rst. In the event the original new
vehicle purchase invoice is unavailable, the DOT serial
number will be used to determine eligibility.
TEMPORARY SPARE TIRE SAFETY
INFORMATIONThe spare tire your car is equipped with may be of a different
size and construction from the other tires on your vehicle.
When using any temporary type spare tire, be sure to fol-
low the vehicle manufacturer’s instructions. FAILURE TO
OBSERVE RECOMMENDED PRECAUTIONS COULD
LEAD TO ERRATIC VEHICLE BEHAVIOR AND/OR TIRE
DAMAGE POSSIBLY RESULTING IN AN ACCIDENT.
(1) A “T” Type temporary spare tire is designed for tem-
porary use only. It must not be used as a standard
tire continuously. The temporary spare tire should be
returned to the trunk as soon as it is convenient to have
your standard tire repaired or replaced.
(2) “T” Type temporary spare tires should NOT BE used
for speeds exceeding 50 miles per hour.
(3) NEVER use chains on “T” Type temporary spare tires
because it could cause damage to your vehicle.
(4) When you replace the temporary spare tire, replace it
only with the same type of tire.
TOYO TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY
(Continued on page 30)
30
(9) Replacement of four (4) or more tires from the same
vehicle will not be accepted for ride disturbance
complaints i.e. vibration, out of round, out of balance,
pulling, noise, due to the unlikely event of multiple
tires with uniformity problems.
(10) Claims for weather/ozone cracking after 5 years from
the date of manufacture.
(11) Any tire which has been run with low air pressure or
while fl at.
(12) Tires used in commercial service.
(13) Tires on vehicles regularly operated outside the United
States.
(14) Claims made by anyone other than the original retail
purchaser of the vehicle.
(15) Tires with the D.O.T. identifi cation number removed
or rendered illegible.
(16) Any tire not presented and available for Toyo’s inspec-
tion.
(17) Any tire for which mileage and tire rotation records
are not available or verifi able.
(18) Any tires worn beyond the wear bars (less than
2/32
nds of an inch of tread remaining) .
(19) Tires not supplied as original equipment on new
vehicles (refer to Owner’s Manual for coverage) .
(20) “T” Type temporary spare tires used at speeds over
50 miles per hour, exhibiting such damage.
(21) Dealer service charges are not covered for routine or
required maintenance of the tires such as alignments,
rotation or balancing.
(22) The cost of applicable federal, state and local taxes
and fees.
(23) Retreaded passenger and light truck tires are not
warranted.
TOYO TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY
(5) Check infl ation pressure before use. Failure to have
proper infl ation pressure when using your spare tire
can result in serious personal injury or death. Maintain
infl ation pressure of 35 psi for the temporary full size
spare and 60 psi for the “T” Type, high pressure,
temporary spare tire. When infl ating or adding air to
a “T” Type temporary spare tire, be very careful since
the smaller tire volume can gain pressure much more
rapidly than a normal full size tire.
(6) Placing (mounting) your temporary use tire on a wheel
which is not specifi cally designed for use with the
temporary use tire or placing another type tire on
your temporary use wheel can be dangerous. Your
vehicle’s handling characteristics can be seriously
affected. You could have an accident resulting in
serious personal injury or death. Consult your vehicle
Owner’s Manual for proper use of your “temporary
use” spare tire.
(7) The “T” Type high pressure temporary spare tire
should not be used with any other wheel nor should
standard tires, snow tires, wheel covers or trim rings
be used on the high pressure spare tire wheel.
(8) Do not operate your vehicle with more than one
temporary spare in use (this does not apply to a full
size spare) and only at limited speeds and distances
as indicated on the sidewall of the tire.
(9) The “T” Type temporary spare tire may lower ground
clearance when used. Avoid driving over large ob-
stacles and other road hazards. Check your vehicle
Owner’s Manual for other special clearance precau-
tions when using the “T” Type temporary spare tire
provided in your vehicle.
(10) Follow the maintenance recommendations and safety
warnings contained in the Owner’s Manual and in
the Important Tire Safety Information section of this
booklet.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED BY THIS
LIMITED WARRANTY(1) Mileage is not warranted.
(2) Damage due to road hazards, whether repairable or
not (such as cut, snag, bruise, impact break, bulge,
puncture, improper use of tire chains, stone drill, chip,
scale) . These types of damages or air loss always
require tire removal and inspection by a qualifi ed tire
professional.
(3) Irregular tread wear or rapid tread wear due to failure
to rotate the tires at recommended intervals or from
vehicle misalignment.
(4) Damage resulting from improper repair materials or
procedures such as rope type plugs. Toyo does not
warrant any inspection or repair process. The repair
is entirely the responsibility of the repairer and should
be made in accordance with procedures as specifi ed
by the Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA) .
(5) Damage from incorrect mounting or dismounting of
the tire, incorrect wheel size, water or other material
trapped inside the tire during mounting or failure to
balance the tires.
(6) Damage or uneven tread wear from incorrect infl ation,
overloading, fi re, theft, defective mechanical condi-
tions such as brakes, shocks, rims, wreck or collision,
misuse, misapplication, negligence, willful damage or
abuse, vandalism, tire alteration, tire spinning, racing
or competition purposes.
(7) Damage, corrosion or rubber deterioration due to
the use of oil-based chemicals, water-based sealers,
balancing substances, or fl ammable gases.
(8) Uniformity problems such as ride, balance and vibra-
tion complaints after the fi rst 25% of tread wear.

CONSUMER’S OBLIGATIONThe consumer is responsible for proper tire care and
maintenance:
(1) It is recommended tires be rotated every 3,500 miles
or less for high performance (low profi le) tires or every
7,500 miles or less for standard passenger and light
truck tires. More frequent rotation may be necessary
if, upon inspection, irregular or erratic tread wear is
beginning to appear. As a general rule, front and rear
tire tread depth differential should be kept to 2/32
nds
of an inch or less. Keep a record of the rotation.
(2) The consumer must maintain the recommended air
pressure in the tires according to vehicle manufacturer’s
recommendation. Check infl ation pressures on all your
tires, including the spare tire, when tires are cold, at
least once a month before driving. Maintaining proper
infl ation pressure is the single most important thing you
can do to ensure optimum tread life and tire durability.
To avoid injury, NEVER reinfl ate a tire that has been
run severely underinfl ated.
(3) The consumer must maintain the vehicle’s alignment
in accordance with vehicle manufacturer’s specifi ca-
tions.
(4) The load capacity of the tires must not be exceeded.
(5) The tire’s maximum speed capability must not be
exceeded.
(6) Follow the maintenance recommendations and safety
warnings contained in the Owner’s Manual and in
the Important Tire Safety Information section of this
booklet.
TO MAKE A CLAIM UNDER THIS
LIMITED WARRANTYIn the event that you make a claim under the terms of the
warranty, we ask the consumer to:(1) Present your tires and your vehicle to an authorized Toyo
dealer. Call consumer relations at (800) 442-8696
(Pacifi c Time) or (888) 444-8696 (Eastern Time) for
assistance locating the nearest Toyo tire dealer or visit

(2) Complete and sign the Toyo Limited Warranty Claim
form provided by the dealer and leave the tire with the
dealer for warranty processing.
NOTE: Check with your vehicle dealership. They may also
assist you with your tire service requirements or in obtaining
tire warranty service from the tire manufacturer.
The consumer is entitled to an adjustment in accordance with
the warranty that was in effect when the tire was installed
on the vehicle as original equipment. The adjustment policy
provides for replacement with a comparable new Toyo tire
if a Toyo tire becomes unserviceable due to an adjustable
condition verifi ed by Toyo’s inspection of the tire. Free
replacement or a pro rata charge depends on the remaining
usable tread when tire is presented for adjustment.
LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONSTHIS LIMITED WARRANTY APPLIES ONLY TO THE 50
UNITED STATES, AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.

MAINTENTANCE INFORMATION!Any tire, no matter how well constructed, can fail as a result
of punctures, impact damage, improper infl ation or other
conditions resulting from use. Tire failures may create a risk
of property damage or personal injury. To reduce the risk
of tire failure, we strongly recommend the following: WARNING!
SERIOUS INJURY MAY RESULT FROM:(1) Tire failure due to underinfl ation, vehicle overloading
or use in excess of legal speeds – follow Owner’s
Manual and tire data placard in your vehicle.
(2) Explosion of tire/rim assembly due to improper
mounting – only specially trained persons should
mount tires.
Refer to the tire data placard, the Owner’s Manual
and Important Tire Safety Information and instruc-
tions contained in this booklet.
TOYO TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY
33
Any tire, no matter how well constructed, may fail due
to improper maintenance or service factors. This could
create a risk of property damage and serious or fatal injury.
Disregarding any of the safety precautions and instructions
contained in this manual may result in tire failure or explosion
causing serious personal injury or death. For your safety,
comply with the following:TIRE INFLATIONKeep tires infl ated to the pressures recommended on
the tire data placard. (See your OWNER’S MANUAL for
location.) These infl ation pressures must be maintained as
a minimum. However, do not exceed the maximum pressure
rating indicated on the tire sidewall.
CHECK INFLATION PRESSURES ON ALL YOUR TIRES,
INCLUDING THE SPARE, WHEN TIRES ARE COLD, AT
LEAST ONCE A MONTH BEFORE DRIVING.
Failure to maintain correct infl ation may result in improper
vehicle handling and may cause rapid and irregular tire
wear, sudden tire destruction, loss of vehicle control and
serious personal injury. Therefore, infl ation pressures
should be checked at least once a month and always prior
to long distance trips.
Pressures should be checked when tires are cold. The
tires are cold when your vehicle has been driven less
than a mile at moderate speed after being stopped for
three or more hours.
CHECKING PRESSURE WHEN
TIRES ARE HOTIf you must add air when your tires are hot, add four pounds
per square inch (psi) (28kPa) above the recommended
cold air pressure. Recheck the infl ation pressure when
the tire is cold.
For Example Only:
Gauge reading of hot tire: 32psi
If recommended pressure is: 30psi
Desired gauge reading of hot tire 30 + 4psi = 34psi
Check cold pressures as soon as possible, at least by
the next day. Never “bleed” air from hot tires as your tire
will be underinfl ated. Use an accurate tire gauge to check
pressures. Never allow children to air up tires.
DRIVING ON ANY TIRE THAT DOES NOT HAVE THE
CORRECT INFLATION PRESSURE IS DANGEROUS.
For replacement tires, the correct infl ation pressure will
be provided by your tire dealer. If not, refer to the vehicle
decal.
Underinfl ation produces extreme fl exing of the sidewalls and
builds up heat which may result in sudden tire destruction
and serious personal injury. Overinfl ation can cause the tire
to be more susceptible to impact damage.LOAD LIMITSDO NOT OVERLOAD. DRIVING ON ANY OVERLOADED
TIRE IS DANGEROUS. Never load your tires beyond the
load carrying limits molded into the sidewall of the tires or
the maximum vehicle load limit as shown on the vehicle
tire data placard, whichever is less. Overloading causes
heat to build up which can lead to sudden tire failure and
serious personal injury.
SPEED LIMITS AND SPEED RATED
TIRESHIGH SPEED DRIVING CAN BE DANGEROUS.
Never operate your vehicle in excess of lawful speeds or
the maximum speeds justifi ed by the driving conditions.
Excessive speeds or racing can cause heat buildup in a tire
leading to possible failure and serious personal injury.
Correct infl ation pressure is especially important.
However, at high speeds, even with the correct infl ation
pressure, a road hazard, for example, is more diffi cult to
avoid and if contact is made, there is a greater chance of
causing tire damage than at the lower speed. Moreover,
driving at high speed reduces the reaction time available
to avoid accidents and bring your vehicle to a safe stop. If
you see any damage to a tire or wheel, replace it with your
spare tire and see your tire dealer at once.
Tire speed ratings do not imply that a vehicle can be safely
driven at the maximum speed for which the tire is rated. In
addition, some damages or improper repairs may cause
a speed-rated tire to lose its speed rating. Exceeding the
tire’s maximum speed rating will cause the tire to build up
excessive heat which can cause tire damage that could
result in sudden tire destruction and rapid air loss. Failure to
control a vehicle with sudden air loss can lead to an accident.
In any case, you should not exceed reasonable speeds as
indicated by the legal limits and driving conditions.

IMPORTANT TIRE SAFETY INFORMATION*
(Continued on page 34)
36HARD BRAKINGYou must inspect your tires after any hard braking
circumstances or after tires have slid on the pavement. This
can cause a fl at spot in a section of the tire tread.TIRE SPINNINGNever spin your tires above a speedometer reading of 35
mph (55 km/h) if your vehicle becomes stuck. The centrifugal
force generated by the free spinning tire/wheel assembly
may cause a sudden tire explosion, resulting in vehicle
damage and/or serious personal injury or death. Never
allow anyone to stand near or behind a tire spinning at
high speed while attempting to push a vehicle that is stuck.
When in mud, sand, snow, ice or other slippery conditions,
do not indulge in excessive wheel spin. In such conditions,
with automatic transmission vehicles, by accelerating the
engine excessively, it is possible to spin one of the drive
tires beyond its speed capability. This is also true when
balancing a drive tire/wheel assembly using the engine of
the vehicle to spin the wheel.TIRE TREADTires must be replaced when the depth of the tread
reaches 2/32 inch (1.6 mm) . Tires are manufactured with
tread wear indicators molded into the tire grooves which
indicate tread wearout. As tires approximate 2/32 inch (1.6
mm) wearout, the tread gauge becomes thinner and more
vulnerable to the effects of road hazards. Also, worn tires
are more subject to hydroplaning, which can cause loss
of control. Therefore, visual tire inspection becomes more
crucial as the tires wear out.
WORN TIRESNever drive on worn tires. Tires should be replaced by trained
personnel when 2/32nds of an inch tread depth remains,
as indicated by the tread wear indicators molded into the
tread grooves. In most states, it is illegal to drive with less
than 2/32nds of an inch of tread remaining.TIRE MIXINGFor best performance select tires similar in size and load
rating to the original equipment tires. It is recommended
that the same size and type of tire be used on all four
wheel positions. In certain tires, casing ply material and
ply construction may vary as indicated on the sidewall of
the tire. When changing or replacing tires, it is preferred
that all four tires are the same construction type (i.e., High
Performance, All Season, Mud & Snow) and construction
(Radial or Bias Ply) . Before mixing tires of different types on
a vehicle in any confi guration, be sure to check the vehicle
owner’s manual for its recommendations.
Tires which meet the Rubber Manufacturer's Association
(RMA) defi nition of mud and snow tires are marked M/S,
M+S, M&S. On such tires, this designation is molded
into the sidewall. Tires without this notation are not
recommended for mud and/or snow driving.
If snow tires are needed, it is necessary to select tires
equivalent in size and load rating to the original equipment
tires. Always fi t performance snow tires in sets of four
(4) for optimum mud & snow traction and maintenance
of vehicle handling characteristics. If you do not, it may
adversely affect the safety and handling of your vehicle.
It is also important to check the vehicle owner’s manual
before mixing or matching tires on 4-wheel drive vehicles
as this may require special precautions.Please refer to your Owner’s Manual for more information
on tire replacement precautions.
TIRE ROTATIONTires on your Nissan vehicle should be rotated every
7,500 miles or as irregular wear develops. If irregular
wear becomes apparent or if the wear rate on the tires is
perceptibly uneven, the tires should be rotated in such a
way to alleviate the problem. Check your vehicle for any
mechanical problems and correct if necessary. Any rotation
pattern or procedure may be followed including those
indicated in the Owner’s Manual. Some tires have arrows on
the sidewall showing the direction in which the tire should
turn. When rotating this type of tire, care must be taken to
maintain the proper turning direction as indicated by the
arrows. Some vehicles have different tire sizes specifi ed
for front and rear axles. Tires on these vehicles should not
be rotated side to side (unless they are non-directional) .
Where a temporary type spare tire is available, it should
not be included in the tire rotation schedule. Such tires
are intended for temporary use only.REPLACING TWO TIRESIf your vehicle was originally equipped with four tires that
were the same size and you are only replacing two of the
four tires, install the new tires on the rear axle. Placing new
tires on the front axle may cause loss of vehicle control
in some driving conditions and cause an accident and
personal injury.
