WASHING YOUR F-150 SVT RAPTOR
Do not drive your vehicle through an automated, commercial car wash
due to the vehicle’s tire width and track. Wash your vehicle by hand, or
by using a touchless commercial wash with no mechanical tracks on the
floor. Do not use a commercial or high pressure wand on the bed side
graphic surface or graphics edges.

•Do not overload your vehicle. Maximum vehicle and axle weights are
listed on the tire information placard.
•Extra caution should be taken when operating the vehicle near its
maximum load, including assuring proper tire pressure and reducing
speeds.
•In the event that you encounter an abnormally harsh impact, inspect
your tires for damage.
•Inspect your tires for damage on a regular basis. If a tire is damaged,
replace it immediately.
•Proper suspension alignment is critical for maximum performance and
optimal tire wear. If you notice uneven tire wear, have your alignment
checked.
•When replacing tires, the only way to assure original performance is to
use the original equipment tire. If a different tire is used, it should be
the same size, speed rating and load rating.
WHEELS
WARNING:SVT only recommends using bead-lock rings from
Ford Racing, in conjunction with the OEM tire. Any other
combination using this wheel could result in air loss or tire failure.
Your SVT vehicle is equipped with unique wheels matched to the tires.
To avoid damage to your wheels:
•Maintain proper tire pressure (see theTiressection of this
supplement for more information).
•Due to extreme tire/wheel width, this vehicle cannot be taken through
an automatic car wash that uses mechanical tracks, as wheel damage
may result.
•When installing wheels, always torque lug nuts to specification with a
torque wrench.
•Inspect your wheels for damage on a regular basis. If a wheel is
damaged, replace it immediately.
•In the event that you encounter an abnormally harsh impact, inspect
the outer diameter of your wheels, both inside and out, for damage.
