In some areas of the country, snow tires arerequired for winter driving. If snow tires arerequired in your area, you must choose snowtires of the same size
and type as the original
tires provided with your
vehicle. Snow tires
should also be
installed on all four wheels.
Otherwise your safety
and vehicle handling
can be reduced.Even where laws may permit it, snow tiresshould not be operated
at sustained speeds
over 75 mph (120 km/h).
CAUTIONA compact spare tire can be installed tempo-rarily in place of a tir
e that has been removed
during the tire rotation. However, it must notbe included in the regular tire rotationsequence.

arrow points in the
wrong direction will not
perform to its full
