2018 DODGE DURANGO SRT tires

Pirelli “Seal Inside” Technology
Select Pirelli tires incorporate “Seal Inside” technology, a construction
designed to stop the loss of air from a tire when punctured by an object.
Providing the puncture does not compromise the structural integrity of
the tire, a sealing material layer prevents possible air leakage in the event
of a carcass puncture.
The “Seal Inside ” technology is not designed or intended to be a
permanent repair, and is only meant to allow the consumer to go to a
Pirelli dealer for an inspection to determine if repair or replacement is
needed.

2. Tire Categories
ALL SEASON TIRES (ALL WEATHER TIRES): Tires that are designed to
perform in a variety of road conditions in all seasons of the year. An all
season tire will carry “M+S”, “M&S”, or “M/S” designation on the
sidewall. All Season tires may carry a Limited Treadwear Warranty
depending on line.
SUMMER TIRES ( MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE, HIGH PERFOR-
MANCE, ULTRA HIGH PERFORMANCE): Summer Performance tires
offer superior handling, grip and cornering ability compared to standard
tires. They are rated for operation at higher speeds. Maximum Perfor-
mance, High Performance and Ultra High Performance categories each
have different performance characteristics, UTQG ratings and rate of
wear depending on line. Some lines may carry a limited treadwear
warranty.
WINTER TIRES (SNOW TIRES): A winter tire is a tire with a tread design
and compound made specifically for snowy and icy conditions and is
identified by M&S, M+S or M/S markings on the sidewalls. Tires
designed for use in severe snow conditions are further identified with a
pictograph of a mountain with a snowflake on the sidewalls and must
meet specific snow performance test requirements. Pirelli Winter tires do
not carry a mileage warranty.
The information provided above is an overview of tire types. Tread
patterns and rubber compounds vary among the seasonal tire types and
provide varying performance characteristics and limitations based on
your individual needs and vehicle specifications. Summer performance
tires are different than winter and all season types. To determine which
Pirelli lines carry a Limited Treadwear Warranty, please refer to The PTI
Treadwear Mileage Warranty Conditions and Mileage Warranty sections
found in this document.
3. Pressure Recommendations
Recommended tire inflation pressures for your vehicle can be found
either on your vehicle’s tire placard or in your vehicle owner ’s manual.
Correct pressures are related to load, speed and vehicle handling and are
vital for even braking, maximum traction and good tire life. Under no
circumstances should your tire’s cold inflation pressure be less than that
indicated on your vehicle’s tire placard or in your vehicle owner ’s
manual or higher than the maximum cold inflation pressure molded on
PIRELLI TIRES
208

to the tire’s sidewall. Under inflation causes excessive flexing, deteriora-
tion of the tire and rapid wear of the tread edges. Over inflation results
in an uncomfortable ride, a reduced area of tire contact with the road
surface (i.e., smaller tire footprint), higher susceptibility to impact
damage and rapid wear on the tread center.
WARNING!
Driving on tires with improper inflation pressure is dangerous.
These situations can cause a tire failure, including tread/belt
separation, even at a later date, which could lead to an accident and
serious personal injury or death.
Inflation pressure must be checked at least once a month and should be
checked only when the tire is cold or before it has been driven. Driving
even a short distance (1 kilometer or 2 to 3 minutes) causes tires to heat
up and the air pressure to increase approximately 4 psi. In case it is
necessary to adjust the air pressure in tires that have been driven, the air
pressure should be increased to a gauge reading of 4 psi higher than the
recommended cold inflation pressure.
For Example Only:
Gauge Reading of Hot Tire: 27 PSI.
Recommended Cold Inflation Pressure: 26 PSI
Desired Gauge Reading of Hot Tire: 26 PSI+4PSI=30PSI
Therefore: Add 3 PSI
Check the cold inflation pressure on the tires, at least by the next day.
Never reduce or “bleed” pressure from hot tires since your tires will then
be underinflated when they cool down. Always use a reliable pressure
gauge.
4. UHP Summer Tires
Rubber compounds formulated for ultra high performance summer tires
can lose flexibility and may develop random surface cracks at cold
temperatures. Therefore extra care should be used in handling tires in this
condition. These compounds are optimized for maximum dry and wet
performance in warm conditions. Special tread compounds in these tires
will have decreased performance, such as lateral and braking traction, at
temperatures below 7° C or when driving on snow or ice. Therefore, it is
recommended to install winter tires in these conditions.
