Tire size (→ P. 593)
TUBELESS or TUBE TYPE
A tubeless tire does not have a tube and air is directly put into the tire. A tube type tire
has a tube inside the tire and the tube maintains the air pressure.
Radial tires or bias-ply tires
A radial tire has “RADIAL” on the sidewall. A tire not marked “RADIAL” is a bias-ply
tire.
Summer tires or all season tires (→ P. 480)
An all season tire has “M+S” on the side wall. A tire not marked “M+S” is a summer
tire.
Maximum cold tire inflation pressure (→ P. 597)
This means the pressure to which a tire may be inflated.
Load limit at maximum cold tire inflation pressure (→ P. 597)
Tire ply composition and materials
Plies are layers of rubber-c oated parallel cords. Cords are the strands which form the
plies in a tire.
Uniform tire quality grading
For details, see “Uniform Tire Quality Grading” that follows.

“TEMPORARY USE ONLY”
A compact spare tire is identified by the phrase “TEMPORARY USE ONLY” molded
on its sidewall. This tire is designed for temporary emergency use only.
