Safety Practices
The way you drive has a great deal to do with your tire mileage and safe\
ty. So cultivate good
driving habits for your own benefit.
Observe posted speed limits and drive at speeds that are safe for the ex\
isting weather
conditions
Avoid fast starts, stops and turns Avoid potholes and objects on the road Do not run over curbs or hit the tire against the curb when parking
CAUTION
If you feel a sudden vibration or ride disturbance while driving or you suspect your tire
or vehicle has been damaged, immediately reduce your speed. Drive with caution until
you can safely pull off the road. Stop and inspect the tire for damage. If the tire is under-
inflated or damaged, deflate it, remove the tire and rim and replace it with your spare tire.
If you cannot detect a cause, have the vehicle towed to the nearest vehicle or tire dealer to
have the vehicle inspected.
