ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT PASSENGER AND
LIGHT TRUCK TIRES INCLUDING RFT TIRES
WITH RUN-FLAT TECHNOLOGY
ELIGIBILITY
This Limited Warranty covers BRIDGESTONE andFIRES-
TONE brand passenger and light truck tires, including
RFT and temporary spare tires, originally installed by the
vehicle manufacturer on a new vehicle. You are covered
under the terms of this Limited Warranty if the tire was
produced after July 4, 2004 (DOT serial 2704 or later)
and has been used only on the vehicle on which it was
originally installed in non-commercial service.
WHAT IS WARRANTED AND FOR HOW LONG
Before wearing down to 2/32 inch (1.6 mm) remaining
original tread depth (i.e. worn down to the top of the
built-in indicators in the tread grooves) and within
6 years from the date of purchase (proof of purchase
date required; without proof of purchase date, then
within 6 years from the date of tire manufacture), for any
reason other than those excluded in the section entitled
“What This Limited Warranty Does Not Cover,” any eli-
gible tire that becomes unusable for any reason within
the manufacturer’s control will be replaced with an
equivalent new tire onthe basisset forth in this Limited
Warranty.

tions.
REPLACEMENT PRICE
Radial passenger and light truck tires adjusted under
this Limited Warranty will be replaced free of charge
during the first 25% of tread wear or within 12 months
from the date of purchase (proof of purchase date re-
quired; without proof of purchase date, then within
12 months from the date of tire manufacture), which-
ever occurs first. During the free replacement period,
mounting and balancing are included free of charge.
To determine the replacement price after the free tire
replacement period, the percent of used tread wear is
multiplied by the current selling price for the replace-
ment tire(s). The appropriate taxes, mounting, balanc-
ing, disposal fee, and other service charges may be
added to the adjustment replacement price.
In Canada, the tire will be adjusted at retailers (subject
to retailer discretion) at a predetermined “Adjustment
Price.”

DON’T ATTEMPT TO MOUNT YOUR OWN TIRES
Serious injury or Death may result from explosion of
tire/ rim assembly due to improper mounting proce-
dures. Follow tire manufacturer’s instructions and
match tire diameter to rim diameter. Mount light truck
radials on rims approved for radial service. Do not apply
bead sealer. This can inhibit bead seating. Lubricate
beads and tire rim (including tube or flap) contact sur-
faces. Lock assembly on mounting machine or place in
safety cage. STAND BACK and never exceed 40 psi to
seat beads. Never use a volatile substance or a rubber
“donut” (also known as a bead expander or “O-Ring”) to
aid bead seating. Only specially-trained persons should
mount tires.
DON’T MIX TIRES OF DIFFERENT SIZES AND
TYPES ON THE SAME AXLE
For optimum handling and control, Goodyear and Dun-
lop recommend fitment of four (4) tires of the same type
and size unless otherwise specified by the vehicle
manufacturer.
WARNING: Before you replace your tires, always consult
the vehicle Owner’s Manual and follow the vehicle
manufacturer’s replacement tire recommendations. Ve-
hicle handling may be significantly affected by a change
in tire size or type. When selecting tires that are different
than the Original Equipment size, see a professional
installer in order to make certain that proper clearance,
load carrying capacity and inflation pressure is se-
lected. Never exceed the maximum load capacity and
inflation pressure listed on the sidewall of the tire. Al-
ways drive safely and obey all traffic laws. Avoid sud-
den, sharp turns or lane changes. Failure to follow thiswarning may result in loss of control of the vehicle,
leading to an accident and serious injury or death.
When replacing tires, you must maintain the outside
diameter and load carrying capacity of the Original
Equipment tire. Inflation pressure may need to be ad-
justed to avoid overloading the tire. Consult the Tire &
Rim Association Load and Inflation Tables, ETRTO or
JATMA standards for correct load and inflation informa-
tion.
NEVER FIT TIRES TO A VEHICLE THAT HAVE
LESS LOAD CARRYING CAPACITY THAN AS
REQUIRED BY THE ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT
MANUFACTURER
Examples: Many vehicles, such as large passenger
vans, require Load Range E tires as designated by the
vehicle manufacturer. Fitment of a tire, such as a Load
Range D, with less carrying capacity is not allowed.
In other cases, tires of the same size may carry different
load indexes in the service description. You must make
certain the replacement tires fitted to the vehicle have a
load carrying capacity equal to or greater than what the
Original Equipment manufacturer specifies.
NOTE:
Goodyear manufactured and/or marketed European-
Metric passenger tires and P-Metric passenger tires are
interchangeable as long as they have the same section
width, same aspect ratio, same rim diameter. Caution:
Never substitute a “Standard Load” (SL) tire for an Extra
Load (XL) tire. If the vehicle was originallyequipped
with “Extra Load” (XL) tires, replace those tires with
similar sized XL tires.
FOLLOW THESE ADDITIONAL GUIDELINES
When installing only two tires, fit the tires with the
deepest tread depth on the rear axle. If radials and
non-radials must be fitted to the same vehicle, fit radials
on rear axle. Never mix radials and non-radials on the
same axle. When fitting snow tires or all-season tires to
performance vehicles, always fit in sets of four. It is not
recommended to fit tires with different speed ratings. If
tires with different speed ratings are installed on a ve-
hicle, they should be installed with like pairs on the
same axle. The speed capability of the vehicle will be-
come limited to that of the lowest speed rated tires.
Use of lift kits with some vehicle/tire combinations can
cause instability. When changing tire sizes, always con-
sult Dealer for optimum rim width and carefully checkvehicle/tire clearances.
RETREADED TIRES
Retreaded passenger and light truck tires are not war-
ranted by Goodyear and Dunlop for any reason. Good-
year and Dunlop speed ratings and U.S. Department of
Transportation test compliance certifications are voided
for retreaded tires.
DO MAINTAIN VEHICLESUSPENSION, WHEEL
ALIGNMENT AND BALANCE AND ROTATE YOUR
TIRES
Lack of rotation, worn suspension parts, underinflation/
overinflation, wheel imbalance and misalignment can
cause vibration or irregular tire wear. Rotate your tires
according to your vehicle manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions or at maximum intervals of 6,000 miles/10,000 km.
(Continued on next page)
GOODYEAR/DUNLOP TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY29

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 missing chunks ofrubber in the tread 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 tire 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.
