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.FOR SERVICE ASSISTANCE OR INFORMATION, FIRST

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:

NOLOGY (EMT™), RUNONFLAT® (ROF) AND DUNLOP

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.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM ALERT
Refer to your vehicle Owner’s Manual for more informa-
tion on what to do if the tire pressure warning system
activates.

HAZARDS
Objects in the road that threaten a tire should be safely
avoided. These objects arepotholes, glass,metal,
rocks, wood debris and the like. Unavoidable contact
should prompt a thorough tire inspection.
You may not always recall hitting an object that can
damage or injure your tires. If while driving your vehicle
experiences any unusual vibrations, ride disturbance or
noise and/or you suspect that possible damage to the
tires or vehicle has occurred, DO NOT JAM OR LOCK YOUR
BRAKES! Rather reduce your speed and drive with cau-
tion until you can safely pull off the road. Stop and
inspect the tires. If the tire is underinflated or damaged,
deflate, remove the tire and rim assembly and replace it
with your spare. If you cannot detect a cause, have the
vehicle towed to the nearest vehicle or tire retailer to
have the vehicle inspected.
REPAIRING, MOUNTING AND DEMOUNTING
OF TIRES
Do not attempt to repair, mount or demount a tire your-
self.Tire changing can be dangerous and must be done
by professionally trained persons using proper tools
and procedures as specified by the Rubber Manufactur-
ers Association (RMA).Follow these mounting recom-
mendations.Your tires should be mounted on wheels of
correct size and type and which are in good, clean con-
dition. Bent, chipped or rusted wheels may cause tire
damage. The inside of the tire must be free from foreign
materials.Have your retailer check the wheels before
mounting new tires.Mismatched tires and rims can
explode during mounting. Also, mismatched tires and
rims can result in dangerous tire failure on the road. If atire is mounted by error on the wrong-sized rim, do not
remount it on the proper rim - scrap it. It may be dam-
aged internally (which is not externally visible) by being
dangerously stretched and could fail on the highway.
Old valves may leak. When new tubeless tires are
mounted, have new valves of the correct type installed.
Tubeless tires must be mounted only on wheels de-
signed for tubeless tires, i.e., wheels which have safety
humps or ledges.
Never perform a temporary repair, use an innertube or
inject sealant as a permanent substitute for a proper
repair. Only qualified persons should repair tires.
Be sure that all your valves have suitable valve caps.
This will keep valve cores clean and clear and guard
against leakage.
REPAIRS - WHENEVER POSSIBLE, SEE A TIRE RETAILER
AT ONCE.Some tire manufacturers do not warrant any
inspection or repair process. The repair is entirely the
responsibility of the repairer.Punctures in the tread of a
passenger tire which do not exceed 1/4 of an inch
(6mm) in diameter can usually be repaired by following
the Rubber Manufacturer’s Association (RMA)Passen-
ger and Light Truck Repair procedures.Contact the
manufacturer of your tires for its position and assistance
as to the acceptable location for a proper repair and the
repair of speed rated tires.Do not use plug repairs. They
may cause further damage to the tire. They are not
always air tight and the plug may fail.Do not exceed
posted speed limits on any repaired tire. Certain tire
manufacturers speed ratings are voided if the tire is
repaired.Although a tire was properly repaired, internal structural
damage resulting from the puncture may have occurred.
Sometime later the damage may cause the tire to be
removed from service.
If the tire has a puncture in the tread which exceeds
1/4 inch (6mm), the tire must be replaced. If any tire has
sustained a puncture, have the tire inspected internally
by a tire retailer for possible damage that may have
occurred.
Improper mounting and inflation procedures can cause
an explosion of the tire/rim assembly. Only specially
trained persons should perform these tasks. Contact
your tire store or retailer for assistance.
CAUTION - Never, under any circumstance, introduce a
flammable substance into a tire.
WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCING
Wheel alignment and balancing are important for safety
and maximum mileage from your tires. Check how your
tires are wearing at least once a month. If your tires are
wearing unevenly, such as the inside shoulder of the tire
wearing faster than the rest of the tread, or if you detect
excessive vibration, your vehicle may be out of align-
ment or balance. These conditions not only shorten the
life of your tires, but adversely affect the handling char-
acteristics of your vehicle which could be dangerous. If
you detect irregular wear or vibration, have your align-
ment and balance checked immediately. Tires which
have been run underinflated will show more wear on the
shoulders than in the center of the tread.
