Road Hazard Coverage for Run Flat and Pirelli Noise
Cancelling System (PNCS) Tires
Pirelli Run Flat tires are manufactured with technology that allows
limited low inflation operation in the event of sudden loss of pressure.
As a result, in addition to the standard warranty coverage, Pirelli
provides road hazard coverage on both Pirelli Original Equipment Tires

and Replacement Tires manufactured with Pirelli Run Flat or
PNCS technology.
If a Run Flat or PNCS tire becomes unserviceable due to road hazard
damage within the first year from the date of purchase, or within the
first 2/32” of the original usable tread, whichever occurs first, the Pirelli
tire will be replaced with an identical or comparable tire at no charge \
for the tire to the owner, including mounting and balancing (subject to
applicable limitations).
What Is Not Covered by this Limited Warranty?
• Ride-related claims after the first year of purchase, or after the
first 2/32” of useable tread, whichever comes first. These include,
without limitation, uneven wear due to misalignment, worn
suspension components, mechanical interference and/or improper

CAUTION :
Please be aware that it is important before fitting the suggested tires,
to ensure that the fitting is allowed by the technical specifications of
the vehicle, the vehicle manufacturer and relevant laws/regulations.
Pirelli does not express any view as to the compatibility of the wheel/
tire combination with the technical specifications for the chassis
and vehicle.
TO MAINTAIN VEHICLE DYNAMICS AND LOAD CARRYING
CAPACITY, REPLACEMENT TIRES MUST ALWAYS HAVE A LOAD
INDEX AND SPEED RATING THAT EQUALS OR EXCEEDS THAT
OF THE ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT TIRES OF THE VEHICLE. FOR
ADDITIONAL TIRE CARE RECOMMENDATIONS, PLEASE REFER

Tire Sidewall Markings
Tire Size: A combination of alphabetic and numeric characters that
indicate the nominal dimensions of a tire:
Page 199 of 260

PIRELLI
197
For Example:
Load Index Number: a numeric code which indicates the maximum
load carrying capacity of a tire at the maximum cold inflation pressure.
Speed Symbol: an alphabetical code which indicates the maximum
speed at which the tire can carry a load corresponding to its Load
Index when properly inflated. These two items together are known as
the “Service Description”.
Speed Symbol Chart
*For tires having a maximum speed capability above 149 mph, a “ZR”
may appear in the size designation; above 186 mph, a “ZR” must
appear in the size designation, and a Service Description, including the\
“Y” speed symbol, must be included in brackets.
Other Markings
•
P - As part of the tire size designation (e.g., P205/65R15), is used
to indicate tires intended for service on passenger cars.
•
LT - As part of the tire size designation (e.g. LT235/75R15), is used
to indicate the tires are intended for service on light truck vehicles.
•
M&S, M+S, M/S - Letters used to indicate a tire suitable for Mud
and Snow and/or All Season usage.
•
XL - As part of the size designation (e.g. P235/75R16 XL), is used
to indicate the tire can carry more load as the maximum inflation

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” desi\
gnation on the
sidewall. All Season tires may carry a treadwear warranty depending
on the product line.
SUMMER TIRES: Summer tires offer superior handling, grip and
cornering ability compared to standard tires under certain conditions.
Some lines may carry a treadwear warranty.
WINTER TIRES (Snow Tires): A winter tire is a tire with a tread design
and compound made specifically for snow and ice 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 treadwear 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.
Summer performance tires are different than winter and All Season
types. To determine which Pirelli lines carry a treadwear warranty,
please refer to the “Treadwear Coverage” sections in this document.
Pressure Recommendations
Recommended tire inflation pressures for your vehicle can be found
either on your vehicle’s tire placard or in your 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 tires’ cold inflation pressure be less than
