WHEELS
Your ST vehicle is equipped with uniquewheels matched to the tires. These wheelsare more susceptible to damage due totheir diameter, width and low profile tires.To avoid damage to your wheels:
•Maintain proper tire pressure.
•Exercise caution when usingautomated, commercial car washes.Hand washing or using touchlesscommercial car washes withoutmechanical tracks is the best way toavoid potential damage.
•When installing wheels, always torquelug nuts to specification with a torquewrench.
•Inspect your wheels for damage on aregular basis. If a wheel is damaged,replace it immediately.
•If you encounter an abnormally harshimpact, inspect the outer diameter ofyour wheels, both inside and out, fordamage.
TIRES
Your ST vehicle is equipped with lowprofile, high performance tires that aredesigned to optimize the driving dynamicsyou expect in an ST vehicle. These tires arenot optimized for off-road or winter (snowor cold weather) performance, and theirride, noise and wear characteristics aredifferent than non-performance tires. Also,
because of their lower profile, the tires aremore susceptible to damage due topotholes and rough roads. To make surethat your tires perform as intended, it isimportant that you maintain your tiresproperly:
Note:Do not use tire chains on the originalwheels and tires of your vehicle. The use ofany type of tire chain on these tires maydamage your vehicle.
•Do not overload your vehicle. Maximumvehicle and axle weights are listed onthe tire information placard.
•Take extra caution when operating thevehicle near its maximum load,including assuring proper tire pressureand reducing speeds.
•Take extra caution when operating onrough roads to avoid impacts thatcould cause tire damage.
•If you encounter an abnormally harshimpact, inspect your tires for damage.
•Inspect your tires for damage on aregular basis. If a tire is damaged,replace it immediately.
•Proper suspension alignment is criticalfor maximum performance andoptimal tire wear. If you notice uneventire wear, have your alignment checked.
•When replacing tires, the only way tomaintain original performance is to usethe original equipment tire. If a differentsummer tire is used, it should be thesame size, speed rating and load ratingas the originally equipped tire. Replacetires as a set of four. Never mix tirebrands or models.
