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 on the basisset forth in this Limited
Warranty.
WHAT THE WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER
This Limited Warranty does not cover the following:
1. Tire damage or irregular wear due to: A. Road hazards, including, without limitation:
Puncture, cut, impact break, stone drill, bruise,
bulge, snag, etc. B.
Improper use or operation, including, without
limitation: Improper inflation pressure, over-
loading, tire/wheel spinning, use of an im-
proper wheel, tire chain damage, misuse, mis-
application, negligence, tire alteration, or for
racing or competition purposes.
C. Insufficient or improper maintenance, includ-
ing, without limitation: Failure to rotate tires as
recommended in this manual, wheel misalign-
ment, worn suspension components, improper
tire mounting or demounting, tire/wheel as-
sembly imbalance, or other vehicle conditions,
defects, or characteristics.
D. Contamination or degradation by petroleum
products or other chemicals, fire or other exter-
nally generated heat, or water or other material
trapped inside the tire during mounting or infla-
tion.
E. Improper repair. Improper repair voids this
Limited Warranty.
F. For RFT tires only, improper run-flat or low tire
pressure operation, including, without limita-
tion: Exceeding speed, distance, or other run-
flat/lowpressure operation limitations.
2. Rapid tread wear or wear-out. Original equipment tires have no mileage warranty.
3. Weather/ozone cracking after 4 years from date of tire manufacture.
4. Ride disturbance or vibration after 1/32 inch (0.8 mm) of tread wear use.
5. Tires with sealant, balance, or other filler material that was not originally applied or inserted by the
tire manufacturer. 6. Tires used in commercial service.
7. Tires purchased and normally used outside the
United States and Canada.
8. The cost of applicable federal, state, and local taxes.
9. Failure to follow any of the safety and maintenance recommendations or warnings contained in this
manual.
This Limited Warranty is in addition to and/or may be
limited by any other applicable written warranty you
may have received concerning special tires or situa-
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 adj usted at retailers (subject
to retailer discretion) at a predetermined “Adjustment
Price.”

22 BRIDGESTONE FIRESTONE TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY

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 this warning 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 v
ehicle 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 VEHICLE SUSPENSION, 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.
