2020 TOYOTA SEQUOIA spare tire

TOYO TIRE
230
Full-size spare tires (not temporary spares) of the same size,
construction, and speed rating may be used in a five-tire
rotation pattern.
After rotation, check the inflation pressure of all the tires. The front
and rear tire pressures may vary according to the vehicle
manufacturer’s specifications.
Remember to follow your vehicle Owner’s Manual for tire rotation
intervals. Your Limited Warranty recommends Toyo brand tires to be
rotated as follows:
•
Every 3,500 miles or less for high performance (low profile) tires.
•
Every 7,500 miles or less for standard passenger and light
truck tires.
More frequent rotation or a thorough vehicle inspection may be
necessary if, upon inspection, irregular or erratic treadwear is
beginning to appear.
It is important to remember the following: •
These tire rotation recommendations do not take into account
different tire and construction types mixed on the vehicle.
•
Some tires cannot be rotated in the manner described. Such tires
include unidirectional tires. Unidirectional tread patterns must be
rotated front-to-rear only so that the direction of revolution does
not change.

TOYO TIRE
231
• Some vehicles are designed with different tire sizes on the front
and rear axles. Normally, such combinations will not allow rotation.
Prior to rotating, consult the vehicle Owner’s Manual.
•
For vehicles with dual rear wheels, see the vehicle Owner’s
Manual for the vehicle manufacturer’s procedures. If your vehicle
Owner’s Manual is not available, please contact the vehicle
manufacturer.
•
Some vehicles are equipped with wheels that limit the choice of
rotation pattern. Consult the vehicle Owner’s Manual.
•
Do not include temporary spare tires in the rotation pattern.
However, if your spare tire is the same size and type as a road tire
(for LT tires of the same size, type, and load rating), it should be
included in the tire rotation process. The proper procedure is to use
the vehicle manufacturer’s recommended tire rotation procedures,
or if not available, to use the appropriate rotation pattern shown,
inserting the spare in the right rear position. Place the tire that
would have gone to the right rear in the spare tire storage position
as the new spare.
•
Important! After rotation, adjust the pressure of the individual tires
to the vehicle manufacturer’s recommendation or the inflation
pressure recommended by Toyo Tires for an optional fitment
according to the tire’s new location on the vehicle.
•
Do not mix speed-rated tires on the same axle. Higher speed-rated
tires must remain on the rear axle. Consult your authorized Toyo
Tires dealer.
TIRE SPEED RATING
All Toyo Tires passenger, light truck, and truck tires have a maximum
speed rating based on size and type. Tires must never be operated
in excess of their rated speed limit! Consult your tire dealer or contac\
t
Toyo Tires Technical Services at (800) 442-8696 (Pacific Time) or
(888) 444-8696 (Eastern Time) if you are not sure about the maximum
speed rating of your tires.

molded into the sidewall near the bead. These letters mean “Mud
and Snow.” Tires designed for use in severe snow conditions
generally have tread patterns, structure, and materials for giving
superior performance. These tires are marked with the “M&S”
designation plus a mountain/snowflake
symbol. Even the best
all-season tires will not provide acceptable levels of traction if you
drive too fast in snow or ice conditions and if you do not allow more
stopping distance on icy roads compared to dry road surfaces.
Your ability to safely maneuver your vehicle in snow or ice
conditions is considerably reduced if your tires are too worn to
provide adequate road grip.
SAFE USE OF TEMPORARY SPARE TIRES
• The temporary spare tire is designed for temporary use only. It
must not be used continuously as a standard tire. The temporary
spare tire should be returned to the trunk as soon as it is
convenient to have your standard tire repaired or replaced.
•
The temporary spare tire should not be used for speeds exceeding
50 mph.
•
Never use chains on temporary spare tires, because it could cause
damage to your vehicle.
•
When you replace the temporary tire, replace it only with the same
type of tire.
•
A full-size spare tire in your vehicle is intended for use as a spare
when needed. Please see the “Tire Rotation” section for the proper
procedures for including the same size construction and speed-
rated tire (for LT tires of the same size, type, and load rating) in the
rotation pattern. (Do not rotate a temporary spare tire.)

If a warrantable condition is found, tires will be replaced
as follows: 1.
Passenger Car and Light Truck Tires (Other than

will be replaced with a comparable new YOKOHAMA tire
free of charge. During this period, tires will be mounted and

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

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.
2.
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

service charges are payable by the customer.

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.

Avoid driving over obstacles that may damage the tire through
impact or cutting, such as potholes, glass, metal, etc.
3.
Speed must not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h) for non-speed-rated
Temporary Spare tires.
4.
A tread life of up to 3,000 miles (4,800 km) can be expected
depending on road conditions and your driving habits. To
conserve tire tread life, the spare should be returned to the trunk

When the tread wear indicator appears on the tire, replace it only
with the same type spare tire.

Check the tire’s cold inflation pressure monthly and maintain at 60
psi (4.2 kg/cm2) even when not in use. Do not inflate over 60 psi.
9.
The YOKOHAMA high pressure spare tire should not be used
with any other rim nor should standard tires, wheel covers, or
trim rings be used on the YOKOHAMA high pressure spare
tire rim on which the YOKOHAMA high pressure spare tire was
originally installed.
Important Safety Information
All tires require owner maintenance regardless of how well a tire
is constructed. Operational damages such as punctures, impact
damage, cuts, incorrect inflation, etc., may cause tire failure and
subsequent personal injury and/or property damage. Simple
operational and maintenance practices, as listed below, will
reduce the chances of tire problems.
Tire Inspection
Visually inspect your tires frequently for any tire damage such
as scrapes, bulges, cuts, nails, irregular wear, etc. resulting from
