All Season Tires —IfEquipped
All
œeason
tires
provide
traction
for
all
seasons
(Spring,
Summer,
"VUVNO,

and
Winter).
Traction
levels
may
vary
between
different
all
season

tires.
All
season
tires
can
be
identified
by
the
M+S,
M&S,
M/S
or
MS

designation
on
the
tire
sidewall.
Use
all
season
tires
only
in
sets
of
four;

failure
to
do
so
may
adversely
affect
the
safety
and
handling
of
your

vehicle.
Summer Or Three Season Tires —IfEquipped
Summer
tires
provide
traction
in
both
wet
and
dry
conditions,
and
are

not
intended
to
be
driven
in
snow
or
on
ice.
If
your
vehicle
is
equipped

with
Summer
tires,
be
aware
these
tires
are
not
designed
for
Winter
or

cold
driving
conditions.
Install
inter
tires
on
your
vehicle

when
ambient
temperatures
are
less
than
40°F
(5°C)
or
if
roads
are

covered
with
ice
or
snow.
For
more
information,


contact
an
authorized

dealer.
Summer
tires
do
not
contain
the
all
season
designation
or
mountain/
snowflake
symbol
on
the
tire
sidewall.
Use
ummer
tires
only
in
sets

of
four;
failure
to
do
so
may
adversely
affect
the
safety
and
handling
of

your
vehicle.
WARNING!
Do
not
use
ummer
tires
in
snow/ice
conditions.
Yo u
could

lose
vehicle
control,
resulting
in
severe
injury
or
death.
Driving
too

fast
for
conditions
also
creates
the
possibility
of
loss
of
vehicle

control.
Snow Tires
Some
areas
of
the
country
require
the
use
of
snow
tires
during
the
inter.

Snow
tires
can
be
identified
by
a
“mountain/snowflake”
symbol
on
the

tire
sidewall.
If you need snow tires, select tires equivalent in size
and type to the original equipment tires. Use snow
tires only in sets of four; failure to do so may adversely
affect the safety and handling of your vehicle.
Snow tires generally have lower speed ratings than
what was originally equipped with your vehicle and
should not be operated at sustained speeds over 75 mph (120 km/h). For
speeds above 75 mph (120 km/h) refer to original equipment or an
TIRES
19

authorized
tire
dealer
for
recommended
safe
operating
speeds,
loading

and
cold
tire
inflation
pressures.
While
studded
tires
improve
performance
on
ice,
skid
and
traction

capability
on
wet
or
dry
surfaces
may
be
poorer
than
that
of
non-studded

tires.
Some
states
prohibit
studded
tires;
therefore,
local
laws
should
be

checked
before
using
these
tire
types.

Full Size Spare — If Equipped
The full size spare is for temporary emergency use only. This tire may
look like the originally equipped tire on the front or rear axle of your
vehicle, but it is not. This spare tire may have limited tread life. When the
tread is worn to the tread wear indicators, the temporary use full size
spare tire needs to be replaced. Since it is not the same as your original
equipment tire, replace (or repair) the original equipment tire and
reinstall on the vehicle at the first opportunity.
Limited Use Spare — If Equipped
The limited use spare tire is for temporary emergency use only. This tire
is identified by a label located on the limited use spare wheel. This label
contains the driving limitations for this spare. This tire may look like the
original equipped tire on the front or rear axle of your vehicle, but it is
not. Installation of this limited use spare tire affects vehicle handling.
Since it is not the same as your original equipment tire, replace (or repair)
the original equipment tire and reinstall on the vehicle at the first
opportunity.
WARNING!
Limited use spares are for emergency use only. Installation of this
limited use spare tire affects vehicle handling. With this tire, do not
drive more than the speed listed on the limited use spare wheel.
Keep inflated to the cold tire inflation pressures listed on your Tire
and Loading Information Placard located on the driver ’s side B-Pillar
or the rear edge of the driver ’s side door. Replace (or repair) the
original equipment tire at the first opportunity and reinstall it on
your vehicle. Failure to do so could result in loss of vehicle control.

DEPARTMENTOF TRANSPORTATION UNIFORM
TIRE QUALITY GRADES
The
following
tire
grading
categories
were
established
by
the
Na-
tional
Highway
Traffic
Safety
Administration.
The
specific
grade

rating
assigned
by
the
tire’s
manufacturer
in
each
category
is
shown

on
the
sidewall
of
the
tires
on
your
vehicle.
All
passenger
vehicle
tires
must
conform
to
ederal
safety
require-
ments
in
addition
to
these
grades.
Treadwear
The
readwear
grade
is
a
comparative
rating,
based
on
the
wear
rate

of
the
tire
when
tested
under


controlled
conditions
on
a
specified

government
test
course.
For
example,
a
tire
graded
150
would
wear

one
and
one-half
times
as
well
on
the
government
course
as
a
tire

graded
100.
The
relative
performance
of
tires

depends
upon
the
actual

conditions
of
their
use,
however,
and
may
depart
significantly
from

the
norm
due
to
variations
in
driving
habits,
service
practices,
and

differences
in
road
characteristics
and
climate.
Traction Grades
The
raction
grades,
from
highest
to
lowest,
are
AA,
A,
B,
and
C.

These
grades
represent
the
tir

e’s
ability
to
stop
on
wet
pavement,
as

measured
under
controlled
conditions
on
specified
government
test

surfaces
of
asphalt
and
concrete.
A
tire
marked
C
may
have
poor

traction
performance.
WARNING!
The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on straight-ahead
braking traction tests, and does not include acceleration, corner-
ing, hydroplaning, or peak traction characteristics.
DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION UNIFORM TIRE QUALITY GRADES

WARNING!
The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that is
properly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, under-
inflation, or excessive loading, either separately or in combina-
tion, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure.
DEPARTMENTOF TRANSPORTATION UNIFORMTIREQUALITY GRADES
Temperature Grades
The
emperature
grades
are
A
(the
highest),
B,
and
C,
representing

the
tire’s
resistance
to
the
generation
of
heat
and
its
ability
to
dissipate

heat,
when
tested
under
controlled
conditions
on
a
specified
indoor

laboratory
test
wheel.
Sustained
high
temperature
can
cause
the
material
of
the
tire
to

degenerate
and
reduce
tire
life,
and

excessive
temperature
can
lead
to

sudden
tire
failure.
The
grade
C
corresponds
to
a
level
of
perfor-
mance,
which
all
passenger
vehicle
tires
must
meet
under
the
Federal

Motor
Vehicle
Safety
Standard
No.
109.
Grades
B
and
A
represent

higher
levels
of
performance
on
the
laboratory
test
wheel,
than
the

minimum
required
by
