BFGOODRICH® TIRES

DO NOT OVERLOAD - DRIVING ON ANY OVERLOADED TIRE
IS DANGEROUS
The maximum load rating of your tires is molded on the tire sidewall.
Do
not exceed this rating. Follow the loading instructions of FCA US
LLC and this will ensure that your tires are not overloaded. Tires
which are loaded beyond their maximum allowable loads for the
particular application will build up excessive heat that may result in
sudden tire destruction.
Do not exceed the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) for any axle on
yo
ur vehicle.
TRAILER TOWING
If you anticipate towing a trailer, you should visit any BFGoodrich®
ti
re retailer for advice concerning the correct size tire and pressures.
Tire size and pressures will depend upon the type and size of trailer
and hitch utilized, but in no case must the maximum cold inflation
pressure or tire load rating be exceeded. Check the tire decal and the
Owner’s Manual supplied by FCA US LLC for further
recommendations on trailer towing.
WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCING ARE IMPORTANT
FO
R SAFETY AND MAXIMUM MILEAGE FROM YOUR TIRES
CHECK HOW YOUR TIRES ARE WEARING AT LEAST ONCE
EA
CH MONTH
If your tires are wearing unevenly, such as the inside shoulder of the
ti
re wearing faster than the rest of the tread, or if you detect excessive
vibration, your vehicle may be out of alignment or balance. These
conditions not only shorten the life of your tires but adversely affect
the handling characteristics of your vehicle, which could be
dangerous. If you detect irregular wear or vibration, have your
alignment and balance checked immediately. Tires which have been
run underinflated will show more wear on the shoulders than in the
center of the tread.
TIRE MIXING
BFGoodrich® tires are radial tires and for best performance it is
r e

commended that the same size and type of tire be used on all four
wheel positions. Before mixing tires of different types in any
configuration on any vehicle, be sure to check the vehicle
manufacturer’s Owner‘s Manual for its recommendations.

TIRE ROTATION
For maximum mileage, rotate your tires according to the vehicle
m a

nufacturer’s recommendations (consult your vehicle Owner’s
Manual), or if not provided, rotate every 5,000 miles using a rotation
pa

ttern such as below (see “Radial Tire Rotation” in this manual).

These situations can cause a tire failure, even at a later date, which
could lead to serious personal injury or death. Consult the vehicle tire
information placard and/or Owner’s Manual for the recommended
inflation pressures. In addition to tire damage, improper inflation
pressure may also:
• Adversely affect vehicle ride and handling.
•

Reduce tire tread wear.
•
Affect fuel economy.
T
herefore, follow these important recommendations for tire and
ve
hicle safety, mileage, and economy:
• Always keep the vehicle manufacturer’s recommended inflation p
ressure in all your tires, including the spare.
• Check their pressure monthly and before long trips or carrying e
xtra weight.
Your vehicle’s tire information placard and/or Owner’s Manual will
te
ll you the recommended cold inflation pressure for all your tires,
including the spare. Examples of placards are shown in Figures 1 and
2. Your placard may look different and have different tire and loading
information than that shown in either of the figures. You must check
the driver side door edge or door jamb area for the actual placard
that applies to your vehicle. For questions about locating or
understanding the tire information placard, consult your vehicle
Owner’s Manual or ask a qualified tire service professional.

The vehicle or TPMS manufacturer may advise checking the TPMS
regularly to confirm it is in working order. In addition, a new pressure
sensor, certain components, or reprogramming may be necessary
when a tire is serviced. Consult your vehicle Owner’s Manual, vehicle
manufacturer, or a Bridgestone® Firestone® Run-Flat Certified
Retailer for questions regarding TPMS operation and service.
RUN-FLAT OR LOW TIRE PRESSURE OPERATION
General Instructions
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) required in your vehicle
m a

y have different methods of alerting you when your tire has lost
inflation pressure. The international standard for the definition of
run-flat operation is pressure at or below 10 psi (70 kPa); however,
some vehicle manufacturers may have established a different pressure
limit. Consult your vehicle Owner’s Manual for the details of your
TPMS. Once the TPMS has indicated that a tire has reduced inflation
pressure, the run-flat mode of operation has commenced. During this
phase of operation, please follow these instructions:
• Reduce speed as much as safely and reasonably possible; do not
e
xceed 50 mph (80 km/h).The greater the speed, the less distance
t

he tire can travel.
• Avoid abrupt or aggressive acceleration, braking, or cornering
m
aneuvers as much as safely and reasonably possible. Pot holes
and other road hazards should be avoided. Careful driving limits
potential damage to the tire, wheel, and vehicle.
• Proceed to a safe and convenient location for tire service as soon
a
s possible. Take note of your mileage; your operation distance is
limited. See "Distance — How Far You Can Drive,” the next section
in this manual.
WARNING!
Serious personal injury or death may result from a tire failure or
ac
cident due to improper run-flat or low tire pressure operation.
Read and follow the instructions below, and the other
maintenance and safety recommendations elsewhere in this
manual.

•If an unusual vibration or vehicle handling difficulty arises, stop
driving as soon as safely and reasonably possible. The tire may be
about to suddenly fail. Release the accelerator and gradually reduce
speed. The tire will need to be replaced before proceeding.
• If towing a trailer, stop driving as soon as safely and reasonably
p
ossible. In this condition, it is potentially dangerous to operate a
vehicle/trailer combination. If possible, disconnect the trailer and
proceed as noted above. Do not continue to tow any trailer until
proper tire service or replacement has been performed.
• Do not touch a tire recently run-low or run-flat (it may be very
h
ot). Allow the tire to cool before handling.
DISTANCE — HOW FAR YOU CAN DRIVE
Factors affecting run-flat or low tire pressure operating distance
in
clude vehicle speed, load, and maneuvering; the amount of inflation
pressure loss; the extent of any tire damage; and ambient temperature.
The tire may be marked on the sidewall with run-flat or low tire
pr
essure operating speed and/or distance limitations, which vary by
tire design and vehicle application (consult your vehicle owner’s
manual). By international standard, RFT tires have a baseline
limitation in run-flat mode of the following:

NOTE:

• Maximum distance values are determined under controlled condi -
tions, which may vary in actual use.
• Your mileage capability may be less, or more, depending on your
s
pecific operating conditions.
• If in doubt, do not exceed the 50
mile (80 km) limitation.
• Seek tire service as soon as possible to minimize tire damage.
Maximum Speed: 50 mph (80 km/h)
Maximum Distance: 50 miles (80 km)

TEMPORARY SPARE: If a temporary spare tire becomes unser -
viceable from a condition other than those listed in Section 3,
du
ring the first 1/32nd (0.8 mm) of tread wear, then it will be re -
placed with a **comparable new Continental brand TS tire FREE
OF
CHARGE, including mounting and balancing. The owner pays
all applicable taxes. After this "Free Replacement Period" for your
temporary spare tire expires, no warranty claim will be accepted.
After the Free Replacement Period: T
he tire (except temporary
spare tire) may still be eligible for a pro rata replacement up to
72 months from date of original purchase until the tread is worn
do

wn to the tread wear indicators (2/32nds of an inch or 1.6 mm of
tr

ead remaining.) If an eligible tire becomes unserviceable under
the stipulations of this Limited Warranty and Adjustment policy it
will be replaced with a **comparable new Continental brand tire,
charging the owner a pro-rated amount. Owner pays all applicable
taxes (including F.E.T.), mounting and balancing charges.
The replacement tire price will be determined by multiplying the
pe
rcentage of the usable tread worn by the Dealers Selling Price
(excluding all applicable taxes) at the time of the adjustment. The
usable tread is the original tread down to the tread wear indicators
(2/32nds of an inch or 1.6 mm of tread remaining.)
** A "comparable" new Continental brand tire may be of either the
sa
me tire line or the same basic construction but with a different
sidewall or tread configuration. If a higher priced tire is selected,
the consumer will pay the difference in price.
