IMPACT DAMAGE
A
tire
impacted
by
a
road
hazard
(curb,
pothole,
debris)
may
be
damaged

but
not
have
visible
signs
of
damage
on
its
surface.
A
tire
damaged
by
an

impact
may
sustain
a
sudden
failure
a
day,
week,
or
even
months
later.

Yo u
may
not
recall
hitting
an
object
that
damaged
or
injured
your
tires.

Air
loss,


unusual
tire
wear,
localized
wear
or
vibrations
can
also
be
signs

of
internal
tire
damage.
If
you
suspect
any
damage
to
your
tire
or
wheel
from
an
impact
with
a

curb,
pothole,
debris
on
the
road
or
any
other
road
hazard,
or
if
you
feel

or
hear
any
unusual
vibration,
replace

a
properly
inflated
spare
at

once
and
immediately
visit
any
qualified
tire
technician.
INSPECTION
When
inspecting
your
tires,
including
the
spar e,


check
the
air
pressures.

If
the
pressure
check
indicates
that
one
of
your
tires
has
lost
pressure
of

two
pounds
or
more,
look
for
signs
of
penetration,
valve
leakage
or
wheel

damage
that
may
account
for
the
air
loss.
Always
look
for
bulges,
cracks,
cuts,
penetrations
and
abnormal
tire

wear,
particularly
on
the
edges


of
the
tire
tread,
which
may
be
caused

by
misalignment
or
underinflation.

Roads
with
holes
and
rocks

or
other
objects
can
damage
tires
and
cause

When
driving
on
such
roads,
drive
carefully
and
slowly,
and
before

driving


again
at
normal
or
highway
speeds,
examine
your
tires
for
any

damage,

etc.
WEARBARS
BFGoodrich®
tires
contain
“Wear
Bars”
in
the
grooves
of
the
tire
tread

which
show
up
when
only
2/32
nds
of
an
inch
(1.6
mm)
of
tread
is

remaining.
At
this
stage,
your
tires
must
be
replaced.
Ti re s
worn
beyond

this
stage
are
extremely
dangerous.
DO
NOT
OVERLOAD
-
DRIVING
ON
ANY
OVERLOADED
TIRE
IS

DANGEROUS
36

The maximum load rating of your tires is molded on the tire sidewall. Do
not exceed this rating. Follow the loading instructions of the manufac-
turer of your vehicle and this will ensure that your tires are not
overloaded. Tires which are loaded beyond their maximum allowable
loads for the particular application will build up excessive heat that may
result in sudden tire destruction.
Do not exceed the gross axle weight rating for any axle on your vehicle.
TRAILER TOWING
If you anticipate towing a trailer, you should visit any BFGoodrich® tire
retailer for advice concerning the correct size tire and pressures. Tire size
and pressures will depend upon the type and size of trailer and hitch
utilized, but in no case must the maximum cold inflation pressure or tire
load rating be exceeded. Check the tire decal and the owner ’s manual
supplied by the manufacturer of your vehicle for further recommenda-
tions on trailer towing.
WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCING ARE IMPORTANT FOR
SAFETY AND MAXIMUM MILEAGE FROM YOUR TIRES CHECK
HOW YOUR TIRES ARE WEARING AT LEAST ONCE EACH
MONTH
If your tires are wearing unevenly, such as the inside shoulder of the tire
wearing faster than the rest of the tread, or if you detect excessive
vibration, your vehicle may be out of alignment or balance. These
conditions not only shorten the life of your tires but adversely affect the
handling characteristics of your vehicle, which could be dangerous. If
you detect irregular wear or vibration, have your alignment and balance
checked immediately. Tires which have been run underinflated will show
more wear on the shoulders than in the center of the tread.
TIRE MIXING
BFGoodrich® tires are radial tires and for best performance it is recom-
mended that the same size and type of tire be used on all four wheel
positions. Before mixing tires of different types in any configuration on
any vehicle, be sure to check the vehicle manufacturer ’s Owner‘s Manual
for its recommendations.
It is especially important to check the vehicle manufacturer ’s owner ’s
manual when mixing, matching or replacing tires on 4-wheel drive
vehicles, as this may require special precautions.

While
All-Season
tires
are
designed
to
provide
reliable

performance
in
some
inter
conditions,
the
use
of
four

(4)
inter
tires
is
recommended
for
optimum
perfor-
mance.
Tires
designated
for
use
in
severe
inter
condi-
tions
are
marked
on
at
least
one
sidewall
with
the
letter
“M” and “S” plus a pictograph of a mountain with a snowflake on it.
TIRE ROTATION AND REPLACEMENT
To obtain maximum tire wear, it may be necessary to rotate your tires. Refer
to your vehicle owner ’s manual for instructions on tire rotation. If you do
not have an owner‘s manual for your vehicle, BFGoodrich® recommends
rotating your tires every 6,000 to 8,000 miles (10,000 to 12,000 km).
Monthly inspection for tire wear is recommended. Your tires should be
rotated at the first sign of irregular wear, even if it occurs before 6,000
miles (10,000 km). This is true for all vehicles.
When rotating tires with a directional tread pattern, observe the arrows
molded on the sidewall which show the direction the tire should turn.
Care must be taken to maintain the proper turning direction.
Some Tire Pressure Monitoring systems (TPMS) may not recognize that a
tire has been moved to a different position on your vehicle. Make certain
that your TPMS system is reset, if necessary, so as to correctly identify the
location of each tire on your vehicle. Refer to your vehicle owner ’s
manual or your vehicle dealer.
Determine whether rotated tires require tire inflation adjustment as front
and rear position tire pressure may vary according to the vehicle manufac-
turer ’s specification due to the actual load on that wheel position. Some
vehicles may have different sized tires mounted on the front and rear axles,
and these different sized tires have rotation restrictions. Always check the
vehicle owner ’s manual for the proper rotation recommendations.

REPLACEMENT
OF
TWO
(2)


TIRES
It
is
recommended
that
all
four
(4)
tires
are
replaced
at
the
same
time.

However,
whenever
only
two
tires
are
replaced,
the
new
ones
should
be

put
on
the
rear.
The
new
tires,
with
deeper
tread,
may
provide
better
grip

and

conditions.
CUSTOMIZATION OF TIRES, WHEELS, ORSUSPENSION ON
SUVS ANDLIGHT TRUCKS
Due
to
their
size,
weight
and
higher
center
of
gravity,
vehicles
such
as

SUVs
and
light
trucks
do
not
have
the
same
handling
characteristics
as

automobiles.
Because
of
these
differing
characteristics,
failure
to
operate

your
SUV/truck
in
a
proper
and
safe
manner
can
increase
the
likelihood

of
vehicle
rollover.
Modifications
to
your
SUV/truck
tire
size,
tir
e
type,

wheels
or
suspension
can
change
its
handling
characteristics
and
further

increase
the
likelihood
of
vehicle
rollover.
Whether
your
SUV/truck
has

the
original
equipment
configuration
for
tires,
wheels
and
suspension
or

whether
any
of
these
items
have
been
modified,
always
drive
safely,

avoid
sudden,
sharp
turns
or
lane
changes
and
obey
all
traffic
laws.

Failure
to


do
so
may
result
in
loss
of
vehicle
control
leading
to
an
accident

and
serious
injury
or
death.
TIRE
ALTERATIONS
Do
not
make
or
allow
to
be
made
any

can explode during mounting. Also, mismatched tires and rims can result
in dangerous tire failure on the road. If a tire is mounted by error on the
wrong-sized rim, do not remount it on the proper rim - scrap it. It may
have been damaged internally (which is not externally visible) by having
been dangerously stretched and could fail on the highway.
Old valves may leak. When new tubeless tires are mounted, have new
valves of the correct type installed. Tubeless tires must only be
mounted on wheels designed for tubeless tires i.e., wheels which have
safety humps or ledges.
It is recommended that you have your tires and wheels balanced. Tires
and wheels which are not balanced may cause steering difficulties, a
bumpy ride, and irregular tire wear.
Be sure that all your valves have suitable valve caps. The valve cap is
the primary seal against air loss.
SERVICE LIFE FOR PASSENGER CAR AND LIGHT TRUCK
TIRES INCLUDING SPARE TIRES
The following recommendation applies to passenger car and light truck
tires. Tires are composed of various types of material and rubber
compounds, having performance properties essential to the proper
functioning of the tire itself. These component properties evolve over
time. For each tire, this evolution depends upon many factors such as
weather, storage conditions, and conditions of use (load, speed, inflation
pressure, maintenance etc.) to which the tire is subjected throughout its
life. This service-related evolution varies widely so that accurately
predicting the serviceable life of any specific tire in advance is not
possible.
That it is why, in addition to regular inspections and inflation pressure
maintenance by consumers, it is recommended to have passenger car and
light truck tires, including spare tires, inspected regularly by a qualified
tire specialist, such as a tire dealer, who will assess the tire’s suitability for
continued service. Tires which have been in use for 5 years or more
should continue to be inspected by a specialist at least annually.
Consumers are strongly encouraged to be aware not only of their tires’
visual condition and inflation pressure but also of any change in dynamic
performance such as increased air loss, noise or vibration, which could be
an indication that the tires need to be removed from service to prevent
tire failure.
