TOYO TIRE

provides a registration card at no charge to all Toyo Tires dealers. The 
dealer must fill in the dealer name, address, and serial numbers of 
the tires purchased. You, the buyer, should then fill in your name and 
address, place a stamp on the form, and mail it to the pre-addressed 
location on the form. Be sure to have your dealer complete their portion 
of the registration card included in this Limited Warranty at the time 
of purchase. The information contained in the registration card is an 
important means to notify you in the event of a product recall.
If you prefer, you may register your tires on our web page at www.
toyotires.com and select “Tire Registration.” Be prepared to provide 
the name and address of the dealer, the quantity of tires, and the DOT 
serial numbers from the sidewall of the tires.
IMPORTANT! If self-registering tires, make sure to include all letters 
and numbers (up to 12 digits) following the letters “DOT” on the tire’s 
sidewall near the bead. If you see only four letters next to the letters\
 
“DOT”, look on the other side of the tire for the full DOT number.

above will be replaced in accordance with this warranty.
If a warrantable condition is found, tires will be replaced 
as follows: 1.
 Passenger Car and Light Truck Tires (Other than 
Temporary Spare Tires)
 - When a tire becomes unserviceable during the first 2/32 inch (1.6 mm) of original usable tread depth or 12 months 
from date of vehicle purchase, whichever comes first, it 
will be replaced with a comparable new YOKOHAMA tire 
free of charge. During this period, tires will be mounted and 
balanced without charge. Other service charges such as 
tire rotation, alignment or applicable taxes are payable by 
the customer. 
 - When a tire has worn past the above specified period for free replacement, the customer must pay for the cost of a 
new comparable YOKOHAMA passenger car or light truck 
tire on a pro-rated basis. The dealer shall determine this 
cost by multiplying the percentage of usable tread worn  

YOKOHAMA
248
by the current retail selling price of that tire at the time of 
warranty replacement. The costs of mounting, balancing 
and any other service charges or applicable taxes are 
payable by the customer. 
 -The tire is covered by this warranty for the life of the original 
usable tread (the original tread depth down to the level of 
tread wear indicator bars molded at 2/32 inch or 1.6 mm) or 
for 48 months from the date of vehicle purchase, whichever 
comes first. This time period does not represent the 
expected service life for tires covered by this warranty.

 Temporary Spare Tires 
 - When the original tread of a YOKOHAMA Temporary Spare 
tire used in temporary highway service on the vehicle in 
which it was originally equipped, is worn not more than 
1/32 inch or 0.8 mm, the tire will be replaced with a new 
YOKOHAMA Temporary Spare tire free of charge, without 
charge for mounting and balancing the new tire. Additional 
service charges are payable by the customer. 
 -Temporary Spare tires worn in excess of 1/32 inch or 0.8 
mm but less than 2/32 inch or 1.6 mm, will be replaced and 
the customer charged 50% of the current retail selling price 
of the tire. The costs of mounting, balancing and any other 
service charges are payable by the customer.

YOKOHAMA Temporary Spare Tire
High Pressure Spare Operating Instructions
Any tire, no matter how well constructed, may fail due to improper 
maintenance or service factors. Tire failure may create a risk of 
property damage and serious or fatal injury. For your safety, please 
follow the instructions below.
1.
 The YOKOHAMA high pressure spare tire is designed for  

YOKOHAMA
251
operation. This must be done immediately after any known or 
suspected contact with an object in the road, a pothole, road 
irregularity or after severe braking. Refer these conditions to a 
reputable tire service center for repair or replacement. Never drive  
on a tire if such conditions appear.
Tire Loading
Never exceed the maximum vehicle load limit listed on the vehicle 
placard, tire information label or in the owners manual. Be aware of the\
 
load carrying limits molded into the tire’s sidewall and do not exceed 
those limits. Maximum load can only be carried at the maximum cold 
inflation pressure indicated on the tire’s sidewall.
Speed Limits
Regardless of the speed capability of your tires, never exceed lawful 
speeds or speeds dictated by driving conditions.
Hazards
Objects in the road that could damage your tires should be safely 
avoided. These objects include: potholes, glass, metal, rocks, wood 
debris and the like. Unavoidable contact should prompt a thorough  
tire inspection.
Air Pressure
Air pressure maintenance is critical to tire service life. Tire pressures 
must be checked frequently when tires are cold (before operation, cool 
to the touch) and no less than once per month and before extended 
operation. Use a tire gauge to check pressure and maintain it per the 
vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations (on vehicle placard or in 
owner’s manual). Do not reduce pressure when tire is hot and do not 
inflate a cold tire higher than limits molded on the tire’s sidewall. Do not 
overlook spare tire inflation pressure.
Tire Tread
Tires must be replaced when the depth of the tread reaches 2/32 
inch (1.6 mm). YOKOHAMA tires are manufactured with tread wear 
indicators molded into the tire grooves which indicate tread wearout. As 
tires wear down to 2/32 inch (1.6mm), and tread depth is reduced, tire
