TIRE SERVICE LIFE
Tires are designed and built to provide many thousands
of miles of excellent service. For maximum benefit, tires
must be maintained properly to avoid tire damage that
may result in removal from service before the tread is
worn down to minimum depth.
It is not practical to accurately predict the service life of
any specific tire in chronological time since service con-
ditions vary widely. The serviceability of a tire over time
is a function of the storage and service conditions (in-
flation pressure, load, speed, road hazard injury, etc.) to
which a tire is subjected. Consumers should not rely
solely on the appearance of the tire, but should be
aware of any change in dynamic performance such as
increased air loss, noise or vibration, which could be a sign to remove the tire. Therefore, it is essential to have
tires, including spares, inspected regularly (at least
monthly) for proper inflation pressure, damage and
treadwear.

Check your vehicle’s Owner’s Manual (or your vehicle)
to determine if it is equipped with run-flat (extended
mobility) tires. If your vehicle is equipped with run-flat
tires, the following applies:
RUN-FLAT TECHNOLOGY EXTENDED MOBILITY TECH-
NOLOGY (EMT™), RUNONFLAT® (ROF) AND DUNLOP
SELF-SUPPORTING TECHNOLOGY (DSST®) ORIGINAL
EQUIPMENT TIRES
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
OPERATIONAL MONITORING
The information contained in this Limited Warranty Bro-
chure applies only to the Original Equipment tires sup-
plied with your vehicle. In order for Goodyear Run-Flat
(Extended Mobility Technology [EMT], RunOnFlat [ROF])
or Dunlop Run-Flat (Dunlop Self- Supporting Technology
[DSST]) tires to obtain the performance criteria stated
within this Limited Warranty, Goodyear or Dunlop Run-
Flat tires must use specific parts, such as a low tire
pressure monitoring system authorized by the Original
Equipment vehicle manufacturer.
RUN-FLAT TIRE FEATURE:
The Goodyear or Dunlop Run-Flat tire is a high-
performance tire with a remarkable feature: It can oper-
ate for limited distances with very low or even no infla-
tion pressure (refer to your Vehicle Owner’s Manual for
these limitations). This is an important benefit, espe-
cially if inflation loss occurs at a location where imme-
diately stopping your vehicle could be hazardous.
(Continued on next page)
GOODYEAR/DUNLOP TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY 31
Check inflation pressures at least once a month and
before long trips. Use an accurate tire pressure gauge.
Always check pressures when the tires are cold (when
the vehicle has been driven less than one mile). If you
must check inflation when the tires are hot, add 4 psi
(27 kPa) to the recommended cold inflation pressure.
Consult your Vehicle Owner’s Manual, vehicle certifica-
tion label or the tire information placard on the driver’s
door edge for the recommended inflation pressure for
your tires.
TREADWEAR INSPECTION
Inspect your tires regularly (for example, each time in-
flation is checked) for sufficient depth in the tread
grooves. This can be done visually very quickly because
your tires feature treadwear indicators (raised areas in
the bottoms of the grooves) at several locations around
the tire. When the tread material has worn down to
these indicators, 2/32nds of an inch of tread groove
depth remains and the tire must be replaced. Any signs
of uneven or irregular wear may indicate the need for a
vehicle alignment or other vehicle suspension service.
TIRE/WHEEL DAMAGE INSPECTION
Inspect your tires for signs of damage to the tread or
sidewalls. Foreign objects embedded in the tread or
torn or m issing chunks of rubber in the trea d or sidewall
may indicate a potential problem.
At the same time, examine your wheels for signs of
damage or abuse. A bent, dented or cracked wheel
should be replaced and the tire mounted on it should be
inspected thoroughly for damage.
TIRE REPAIR
Like any other Goodyear speed-rated, high-
performance tire, the Goodyear Run-Flat tire may be
repaired to correct a puncture in the tread, but PROPER
MATERIALS AND PROCEDURES MUST BE USED. Contact
a Goodyear Run-Flat service facility for information on
proper repairs. For the location of the nearest facility,
call 1-800 RUN-FLAT (1-800- 786-3528).
WARNING
Property damage, serious injury or death may result
from:
● Tire failure due to underinflation or overloading.
Consult your Vehicle Owner’s Manual, tire infor-
mation placard, or vehicle certification label for
your vehicle’s tire inflation and load
specifications.
● Tire failure caused by excessive operation at low
or zero inflation pressure.
● Explosion of the tire/rim assembly due to im-
proper mounting. Only specially trained persons
should mount tires. More than 40 psi (270 kPa)
may be required to seat beads. A safety cage and
clip-on extension air hose must be used if more
than 40 psi (270 kPa) is needed to seat beads.
WARNING
On slippery surfaces such as snow, mud and ice,
never spin tires in excess of 35 mph (55 km/h) as
indicated on the speedometer . Severe damage –
including tire disintegration and axle failure – may
result from excessive wheel spinning, causing seri-
ous personal injury.
Goodyear Run-Flat tires are designed for use only on
certain original equipment wheels supplied with a
properly operating low tir e pressure-monitoring
system. If applied to a vehicle without a properly
operating low tire pressure monitoring system the
tires may fail when operated in an underinflated
condition, resulting in loss of vehicle control and
possible serious injury or death. Application of
these tires to a vehicle not equipped with specified
operational low tire pressure-monitoring system
constitutes improper and unsafe use of this
product.

indicate a potential problem.
At the same time, examine your wheels for signs of
damage or abuse. A bent, dented or cracked wheel
should be replaced and the tire mounted on it should be
inspected thoroughly for damage.
TIRE REPAIR
Like any other Dunlop speed-rated high performance
tire, the Dunlop DSST tire may be repaired to correct a
nail-hole puncture in the trea d, but proper materials and
procedures must be used. Contact an authorized Dun-
lop DSST service facility for information on proper re-
pairs.
WARNING
Serious injury or death may result from:
● Tire failure due to underinflation or overloading.
Consult your vehicle Owner’s Manual or the tire
placard on the driver’s door edge for your vehi-
cle’s tire inflation and load specifications.
● Tire failure caused by excessive operation at low
or zero inflation pressure.
● Explosion of the tire/rim assembly due to im-
proper mounting. Only specially trained persons
should mount tires. More than 40 psi (270kPa)
may be required to seat beads. A safety cage and

never spin tires in excess of 35 mph (55km/h) as
indicated on the speedometer . Severe damage –
including tire disintegration and axle failure – may
result from excessive wheel spinning, and could
cause serious personal injury.
WARNING
Dunlop DSST tires are designed for use only on cer-
tain original equipment wheels supplied with a
properly operating low tire inflation pressure moni-
toring system. If applied to a vehicle other than a
so-equipped vehicle, the tires may fail when oper-
ated in an underinflated condition, which could re-
sult in loss of vehicle control and possible serious
injury or death. Application of these tires to a ve-
hicle not equipped with specified original equip-
ment wheels and an operational low tire inflation
pressure monitoring system constitutes improper
and unsafe use of this product.

service on the vehicle on which they were originally
fitted and in accordance with the maintenance recom-
mendations and safety warnings contained in the own-
er’s manual and in the Important Tire Safety Informa-
tion 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 war-
ranties, 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 manufac-
ture.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED
Tires 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,

vandalism;
●Ozone or weather cracking.
WHAT MICHELIN 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 Michelin 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 or 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
beneficial to the user) or after 12 months from date of
purchase, the user must pay the cost of a comparable
new Michelin passenger or light truck replacement tire
on a pro-rata b asis.The retailer 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 Mi-
chelin Base Price List, whichever is lower. This List is
based on a predetermined price intended to fairly rep-
resent the actual selling price of the tire. The cost of
mounting, balancing and any other service charges or
applicable taxes are payable by the user.
WHAT THE CONSUMER MUST DO
When making a claim under the terms of this warranty,
the consumer must present the tire to an authorized
Michelin Retailer. To locate an Authorized Tire Retailer,
check the yellow pages under “Tire Retailers - Retail.”
The vehicle on which the tire was used should be avail-
able for inspection.
It is essential that you read and understand the safety
and maintenance recommendations (see Safety Main-
tenance Information) for your tires.
