TIRE SPINNING
Do not spin wheels in excess of 35  mph (55 km/h) as indicated on the  
sp
eedometer.  Excessive  speed  in  a  free-running,  unloaded  tire  can  
cause  it  to  “explode”  from  centrifugal  force.  The  energy  released  by  
such  an  explosion  is  sufficient  to  cause  serious  physical  injury  or  
death. Never allow anyone to stand near or behind the spinning tire.
When  in  mud,  sand,  snow,  ice  or  other  slippery  conditions,  do  not  
en
 gage  in  excessive  wheel  spin.  Accelerating  the  motor  excessively,  
particularly with automatic transmission vehicles, may cause a drive  
tire  that  has  lost  traction  to  spin  beyond  its  speed  capability.  This  is  
also true  when balancing a drive tire/wheel assembly on  the vehicle  
using the vehicle engine to spin the tire/wheel assembly.
HIGH SPEED DRIVING CAN BE DANGEROUS
Correct inflation pressure is especially important.  H
 owever, at high 
speeds,  even  with  the  correct  inflation  pressure,  a  road  hazard,  for  
example is more difficult to avoid and if contact is made, has a greater  
chance  of  causing  tire  damage  than  at  a  lower  speed.  Moreover,  
driving  at  high  speed  reduces  the  reaction  time  available  to  avoid  
accidents and bring your vehicle to a safe stop.
If you see any damage to a tire or wheel, replace it with the spare at  
on
 ce and visit a participating BFGoodrich® Tire Retailer.
Exceeding the maximum speeds shown on the following page for each  
ty
 pe of BFGoodrich® tire will cause the tire to build up excessive heat  
which  can  cause  tire  damage  that  could  result  in  sudden  tire  
destruction and rapid air loss. Failure to control a vehicle when one or  
more tires experience a sudden air loss can lead to an accident.
In  any  case,  you  should  not  exceed  reasonable  speeds  as  indicated  
by
  the legal limits and driving conditions.

instructions  for  checking  pressures  when  tires  are  hot.  When  tires 
have cooled, check air pressure again. If any tire has lost more than  
5  PSI  from  the  previous  pressure  check,  have  the  tire  inspected  at  
once  by  an  authorized  PAX®  System  Retailer  for  PAX®  tires  or  a  
participating  Michelin®  tire  retailer  or  representative  of  your  
vehicle  manufacturer  if  your  vehicle  Owner’s  Manual  so  advises.  
Failure to do so may cause irreparable damage to the tire and result  
in sudden tire destruction and personal injury.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEMS (TPMS):
Your  vehicle  may  be  equipped  with  a  Tire  Pressure  Monitoring  
Sy
 stem  (TPMS)  that  is  designed  to  monitor  the  pressure  of  tires  
mounted  on  your  vehicle  and  sends  a  signal  to  the  driver  if  a  tire  
pressure  falls  below  a  predetermined  level.  A  TPMS  should  not  
replace  monthly  manual  pressure  checks  for  all  four  tires  and  the  
spare.  We  recommend  that  you  manually  monitor  and  check  tire  
pressure  inflation  with  a  pressure  gauge.  Your  tires  should  have  the  
recommended  pressure  listed  by  your  vehicle’s  manufacturer.  This  
information can be found in the vehicle Owner’s Manual and often on  
a placard  located in  the vehicle’s door  jamb, inside  the fuel hatch,  or  
on  the  glove  compartment  door.  If  you  have  a  plus  size  fitment  that  
requires  a  higher  inflation  pressure,  your  tire  pressure  monitoring  
system  will  require  re-calibration  to  new  inflation  pressure.  Refer  to  
your  tire  dealer/installer  of  plus  size  tires  for  proper  inflation  
pressure.
We recommend checking air pressure once each month, and before a  
l o
ng trip. Whether you have a full-sized or mini-spare, make sure that  
it  is  properly  inflated  as  well.  If  the  TPMS  generates  improper  
monitoring or signals we recommend that you consult your Owner’s  
Manual provided with your vehicle and follow-up with your vehicle’s  
manufacturer.

• When two new tires have been installed onto the rear axle positions, 
they are to be kept on the rear but rotated from side to side. This is  
recommended after installing two new tires to the rear position, or  
if you discover significant tread depth differences between the front  
and rear positions during rotation intervals.
REPLACING ONE TIRE
• Replacing  a  single  tire  on  a  vehicle  can  have  an  adverse  effect  on  
s
 uspension systems, gear ratios, transmission, and tire treadwear.
• If single tire replacement is unavoidable, it is recommended that the  
s
 ingle new tire be paired with the tire that has the deepest tread and  
both be placed on the rear axle. Placing greater traction on the rear  
axle  on  wet  surfaces  is  necessary  to  prevent  a  possible  oversteer  
condition and loss of vehicle stability.
WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCING
• Proper  wheel  alignment  and  balance  are  very  important  consider -
a
 tions for safety and getting the maximum mileage from your tires.  
Yo
 u need to check how your tires are wearing at least once a month.
• Your  vehicle  may  be  out  of  alignment  if  your  tires  are  wearing  
u
 nevenly,  such  as  when  the  inside  shoulder  of  the  tire  is  wearing  
faster than the rest of the tread. This condition not only shortens the  
life of your  tires, it adversely affects the handling characteristics of  
your vehicle, which could be dangerous. If your tires show irregular  
wear, have your vehicle’s alignment checked immediately.
