ABOUT THIS WARRANTY
As the original purchaser of a Michelin® passenger or light truck tire,
yo
u are covered by all the benefits and conditions (subject to the
maintenance recommendations and safety warnings) contained in this
booklet. To ensure your understanding of and compliance with the
terms and conditions of this warranty, please read it carefully. It is
essential that you also read and understand the safety and
maintenance recommendations for tires contained in this booklet.
Limited Mileage Warranty:
Michelin® passenger and light truck tires – replacement and original
eq
uipment – are covered by a limited mileage warranty (hereafter
referred to as limited warranty for treadwear). For the mileage
warranty associated with each tire line, please see your Michelin® tire
retailer – or visit us at
www.michelinman.com/home
.
Certain conditions and limitations apply. Mileage warranties vary by
ti
re line and certain exclusions may apply.
Self-Supporting Tires
Zero Pressure (ZP)
As the purchaser of a Michelin® Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP)
pa
ssenger tire, mounted on a vehicle approved for ZP tires, equipped
with a properly operating low tire pressure warning system, you are
covered by this warranty. Please pay close attention to the Owner’s
Manual part of this booklet since it provides specific safety and
maintenance information for your ZP tires.
Michelin® Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tires are part of a very
so
phisticated system which is designed to provide a very simple
benefit: Peace of Mind. With these tires, you can maneuver the vehicle
up to 50 miles (80 kilometers) at 55 mph (90 km/h), unless otherwise
sp

ecified in your vehicle owner’s manual, even though the tire has lost
all air! That means time to exit from the highway and get to a place
where the tire can be inspected, replaced, or possibly returned to

MICHELIN®

service. The distance that can safely be traveled following an air loss
incident will depend upon the conditions under which the vehicle is
operating, the degree of air loss, the extent of the damage causing the
air loss, the ambient temperature, the load, and the operating speed of
the vehicle. The fewer miles you travel after an air loss incident, the
greater the likelihood that the tire can be re-inflated (or, if punctured,
repaired) and returned to service.
Pax® System
The Michelin® PAX® System is a very sophisticated system that
in
cludes the tire, support ring and gel, pressure sensing device, and
wheel. In the event of a loss of tire air pressure, with this system you
can still carefully maneuver the vehicle at speeds up to 55 mph
(9

0 km/h), for a distance of up to 125 miles (201 km), even though a
ti

re has lost all air! That means time to get off the highway and get to
a place where the tire can be inspected, replaced, or possibly repaired
and returned to service. That is peace of mind!

WHAT IS COVERED AND FOR HOW LONG
Passenger and Light Truck Tires Michelin® Passenger and Light
Tr
uck tires, used in normal service on the vehicle on which they
were originally fitted and in accordance with the maintenance
recommendations and safety warnings contained in the attached
owner’s manual, are covered by this warranty against defects in
workmanship and materials for the life of the original usable
tread, or 6 years from the date of purchase, whichever occurs first.
At that time, all warranties, express or implied, expire. The usable
tread is the original tread down to the level of the tread wear
indicators - 2/32 nds of an inch (1.6 mm) of tread remaining. Date
of

purchase is documented by new vehicle registration or tire sales
invoice. If no proof of purchase is available, coverage will be based
on the date of manufacture.
Replacement will be made in accordance with the terms and
co
nditions described under “How Replacement Charges are
Calculated”.

The following procedures concerning replacement tires must be
followed:
• Confirm that the load-carrying capacity is greater than or equal to
t
he loadcarying capacity of the OE tire size at the pressure indicated
on the vehicle Tire Information Placard.
• Carefully note any differences between recommendations for front
a
nd rear axle positions regarding the tire size and/or inflation pres-
sure.
• The speed rating must be equal to or greater than what is specified
b
y the vehicle manufacturer if the speed capability of the vehicle is
to be maintained.
• Tires should be mounted on approved wheel widths. If changing
t
ire sizes, check to make sure the wheel has adequate load and infla -
tion pressure capacity.
• Body and chassis clearance must be checked on the vehicle’s front
a
nd rear axles.
In addition to the above, light truck tire replacements should take into
co
nsideration the following:
• Proper spacing between dual tires is necessary for optimum tire
p
erformance. If chains are used, particular care must be taken to
assure adequate clearance between loaded tires to avoid damage
from the chains. The allowable outside diameter difference between
a tire and its dual mate is 1/4 inch (6.4 mm) for light truck tires.
WARNING!
• Failure to install tires with adequate load capacity will result in
t
ire fatigue and sudden tire failure. This could lead to loss of
vehicle control, possibly resulting in personal injury or death.
• Certain vehicle performance parameters, including ride comfort
a
nd handling, may be affected by substitute tire sizes. In some
cases, particularly for SUVs and light trucks, a failure to follow
the vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations for tire replace -
ment could adversely affect the safe handling of the vehicle,
po
ssibly resulting in a loss of vehicle control leading to personal
injury or death.

CONSIDERATIONS IN PLUS SIZING
Always refer to and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s replacement
ti
re recommendations. In some cases, a vehicle manufacturer may
specifically advise against the application of replacement tires that are
not of the original size or type.
TIRE AND WHEEL MATCHING AND MOUNTING
WARNING!
Any attempt to mount a tire on a wheel with a different diameter
wi
ll result in an explosion of the tire/wheel assembly that could
cause severe personal injury or death.
Prior to mounting any tire, always check the wheel identification
st
amp to verify the correct wheel diameter. Always check the tire
size molded onto the sidewall.
Never exceed 40 psi when seating the tire beads onto the wheel.
Always stand well clear of any tire mounting operation. This is
es
pecially important when the service operator inflates the tire. If
the tire has been improperly mounted, it could burst with
explosive force causing serious personal injury or death.
A new valve stem must be installed on the wheel each time a
wo
rn out passenger or light truck tire is replaced.
Removing and replacing tires on wheels can be dangerous.
Attempting to mount tires with improper tools or procedures
co
uld result in a tire explosion, causing serious personal injury or
death. This is a job for your authorized Toyo Tires dealer or other
qualified tire service location only.
Serious personal injury or death can result from:
• Failure to select the proper tire and wheel. The tire must match
t
he width and diameter requirements of the wheel. When
mounting truck type radial tires use only wheels approved for
radial tires.
• Failure to inspect both the tire and wheel. The wheel must be
f
ree of cracks, dents, chips, and rust. The tire must be free of bead
damage, cuts, and punctures.

TOYO TIRES® – LIMITED WARRANTY

TIRE MIXING
• Toyo Tires® recommends that all four tires be of the same size,
s
peed rating, and construction (radial or non-radial). In some cases
the vehicle manufacturer may require different sized tires for the
front or rear axles. Never mix P-metric or European Metric
passenger tires with LT-metric tires on the same vehicle.
• Match tire size designations in pairs on an axle, except during the
t
emporary use of a spare tire.
• If two radial tires and two non-radial tires are used on a vehicle, put
t
he radials on the rear axle. If radial and non-radial tires are used on
a vehicle equipped with dual rear tires, the radial tires may be used
on either axle.
SPEED-RATED TIRE
• If the vehicle Tire Information Placard and/or the vehicle Owner’s
M
anual specifies speed-rated tires, the replacement tires must have
the same or higher speed rating to maintain vehicle speed capa -
bility.
• F
ailure to follow proper procedures. For proper mounting proce -
d
ures, consult the Rubber Manufacturers Association’s publica -
tion “Care and Service of Automobile and Light Truck Tires”
(r
ef.: www.ustires.org ).
•

Exceeding the maximum bead seating pressure of 40 psi. Be
a
bsolutely certain beads are fully seated before adjusting the
inflation pressure to the level recommended for vehicle opera -
tion.
Never put flammable substances in the tire/wheel assemblies at
an
y time. Never put any flammable substance into a tire/wheel
assembly and attempt to ignite it in order to seat the beads.
CAUTION!
Driving your vehicle with an improper mix of tire sizes,
co
nstructions, and speed ratings can be dangerous. Your car’s
handling characteristics can be adversely affected. You could have
an accident resulting in serious personal injury or death. Consult
your vehicle Owner’s Manual or an authorized Toyo Tires dealer
for proper tire replacement.
WARNING! (Continued)

TOYO TIRES® – LIMITED WARRANTY

• If a replacement tire has a lower speed capability than that specified
by the vehicle manufacturer, the vehicle’s speed must be restricted
to that of the replacement tire. Vehicle handling could also be
affected. Consult the vehicle Owner’s Manual or tire manufacturer
for recommendations.
• If tires with different speed ratings are used, it is recommended that
t
he lower speed- rated tires always be placed on the front axle. This
is to prevent a potential oversteer condition.
FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE (4WD) AND ALL-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD)
VE
HICLES
If no instructions for tire mixing appear in the vehicle Owner’s
Ma
nual, follow these guidelines:
• Do not mix tire sizes. All four tires must be marked with the same
t
ire size, unless otherwise specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
This also applies to winter/snow tires.
• Do not mix tread pattern types such as all-terrain and all- season.
S

TUDLESS WINTER/SNOW TIRES
• It is always preferable to apply winter/snow tires to all wheel posi -
t
ions, including dual tires, to maintain vehicle mobility and control.
• If winter/snow tires are applied to the f
ront axle of any vehicle,
winter/snow tires must also be installed on the
rear axle. DO NOT
apply winter/snow tires only to the front axle. This applies to all
passenger and light truck vehicles, including front-wheel- drive,
4WD, and AWD vehicles.
• If winter/snow tires are installed on the rear axle of any vehicle, it is
recommended (but not required) that they also be installed on the
front axle.
WARNING!
Unless winter/snow tires on the rear axle have comparable
tr
action qualities to the tires on the front axle, the vehicle may
experience adverse handling characteristics. This may result in
loss of vehicle control, which can lead to serious personal injury
or death.

TIRE SPEED RATING
All Toyo Tires® passenger, light truck, and truck tires have a
ma
ximum speed rating based on size and type. Tires must never be
operated in excess of their rated speed limit! Consult your tire dealer
or contact Toyo Tires at 1-800-442-8696 (Pacific Time) or
1-888-444-8696 (Eastern Time) if you are not sure about the maximum
speed rating of your tires.
Toyo Tires® does not endorse the operation of any vehicle in an
u n

safe or unlawful manner. Obey all local speed limits.
Tire speed ratings do not imply that a vehicle can be safely driven at
th
e speed for which the tire is rated. Speed ratings are based on
laboratory tests and relate to performance on the road, but are not
applicable if tires are underinflated, overloaded, worn out, damaged,
or altered.
WARNING!
No tire, regardless of its design or speed rating, has an unlimited
ca
pacity for speed. Exceeding the tire’s speed capability could
cause overheating and sudden tire failure, possibly leading to loss
of vehicle control and serious personal injury or death.
WARNING!
High-speed driving with underinflated or overloaded tires may
re
sult in immediate tire failure, possibly leading to loss of vehicle
control, which could cause an accident, including serious personal
injury or death.

COMPETITION TIRE STORAGE
The rubber compounds used in these tires have unique properties
th
at, when compared to other tires, can cause them to lose some of
their flexibility when used or handled in conditions below 15° F
(-9° C). This loss in flexibility can lead to potential cracking and other
da
mage to the tire. To minimize the chances of this happening, you are
advised to follow these instructions:
1. Do not move or operate the car with these tires in conditions below
1
5° F (-9° C).
2. Avoid moving these tires in conditions below 15° F (-9° C).

3
. Before mounting and dismounting, store these tires for at least 24 hours
i
n a temperature- controlled environment of 68° F (20° C) or warmer.

4. Remove these tires from the vehicle and deflate to half the normal
a
ir-pressure during prolonged periods of non-use or storage.
Always inspect tires for signs of cracking and never use tires that
ha
ve cracked.
SPECIAL ADVICE FOR LIGHT TRUCKS
Never exceed the speed limit as indicated by the speed symbol on the
ti
re’s sidewall. See the chart and explanation of speed ratings in this
manual.
If you do not know the speed rating of your Toyo brand tire, contact
yo
ur Toyo Tires® dealer or Toyo Tire U.S.A. Corp. for current
information.
WARNING!
Improper storage can damage your tires in ways that may not be
vi
sible and could lead to serious personal injury or death.
