n Inspection Guidelines
Every time you inflate the tir
es, check for the following:
•
Any damage to

tires, including bumps, bulges, cuts, splits, or cracks in the side or tread.
Remove any foreign objects and inspect for air leaks. Replace tires if you see fabric or cord.
•
Uneven or excessiv

e tread wear. Have an authorized Acura NSX dealer check the wheel
alignment.
•
Cracks or other damage around the val

ve stems.
n
Wear Indicators
The groov

e where the wear indicator is located is 1/16 inch
(1.6 mm) shallower than elsewhere on the tire. If the tread
has worn so low that the indicator is exposed, replace the tire.
Worn out tires have poor traction on wet roads.
Example of a wear indicator mark
Using tires that are excessively worn or improperly inflated can cause a crash in
which you can be seriously hurt or killed.
Follow all instructions in this owner’s manual regarding tire inflation and
maintenance.

n Tire and Wheel Replacement
Replace y
our tires with radials of the same size, load range, speed rating, and maximum
cold tire pressure rating (as shown on the tire’s sidewall). Using tires of a different size or
construction can cause certain vehicle systems to work incorrectly. It is best to replace all
four tires at the same time. If that isn’t possible, replace the front or rear tires in pairs.
If you change or replace a wheel, make sure that the wheel’s specifications match those of
the original wheels. Only use TPMS-specified wheels approved for your vehicle.
Installing improper tires on your vehicle can affect handling and stability.
This can cause a crash in which you can be seriously hurt or killed.
Always use the size and type of tires recommended in the owner’s manual.
WARNING
n Tire Service Life
The life of y
our tires is dependent on many factors, including driving habits, road conditions,
vehicle loading, inflation pressure, maintenance history, speed, and environmental
conditions (even when the tires are not in use).
In addition to regular inspections and inflation pressure maintenance, it is recommended
that you have annual inspections performed once the tires reach five years old. All tires,
including the spare, should be removed from service after 10 years from the date of
manufacture, regardless of their condition or state of wear. n
Winter Tires
If driving on snowy

or frozen roads, mount all season tires marked “M+S”, snow tires, or
tire chains; reduce speed; and maintain sufficient distance between vehicles when driving.
For winter tires, select the size and load ranges that are the same as the original tires, and
mount them to all four wheels.
n
Tire Chains
Tire chains can be used onl
y in conjunction with winter tires. Install tire chains on the rear
tires only.
For 295/30R20 (97V) winter tires: Auto-trac 232405
For 305/30R20 (103W) XL winter tires: K-Summit K-44
Mount chains as tightly as you can, and make sure that they do not touch the brake lines or
suspension.
Using the wrong chains, or not properly installing chains, can damage the brake
lines and cause a crash in which you can be seriously injured or killed.
Follow all instructions in this guide regarding the selection and use of tire chains.
WARNING
Traction devices that are the wrong size or improperly installed can damage your vehicle’s
brake lines, suspension, body, and wheels. Stop driving if they are hitting any part of the
vehicle.

DOT Tire Quality Grading
The tires on your vehicle meet all U.S. Federal Safety Requirements. All tires are also graded for
treadwear, traction, and temperature performance according to Department of Transportation
(DOT) standards. The following explains these gradings.
n
Uniform Tire Quality Grading
Quality grades can be found

where applicable on the tire sidewall between tread shoulder
and maximum section width.
For example:
Treadwear 200
Traction AA
Temperature A
All passenger car tires must conform to Federal Safety Requirements in addition to these
grades.
n
Treadwear
The tr

eadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested
under controlled conditions on a specified government test course. For example, a tire
graded 150 would wear one and one-half (1 1/2) times as well on the government course as
a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of
their use, however, and may depart significantly from the norm due to variations in driving
habits, service practices, and differences in road characteristics and climate. n
Traction
The traction grades,

from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. Those grades represent the
tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement as measured under controlled conditions on specified
government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction
performance.
WARNING: The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on straight-ahead braking
traction tests, and does not include acceleration, cornering, hydroplaning, or peak traction
characteristics.
n
Temperature
The

temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing the tire’s resistance to the
generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled conditions
on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained high temperature can cause the
material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to
sudden tire failure. The grade C corresponds to a level of performance which all passenger
car tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and
A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel than the minimum
required by law.
WARNING: The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that is properly
inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, underinflation, or excessive loading, either
separately or in combination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure.
