TIRE CARE AND MAINTENANCE GUIDE
The easiest way to help ensure satisfactory mileage and performance
f r

om your Goodyear® or Dunlop® tires is to give them a simple but
frequent (at least monthly) inspection for proper inflation, even tread
wear and the presence of any damage.
DO MAINTAIN PROPER INFLATION PRESSURE IN YOUR TIRES
Proper inflation pressure is necessary for optimum tire performance,
sa
fety and fuel economy. Check inflation pressures at least once a
month and before long trips. Use an accurate tire pressure gauge.
Always check pressures when the tires are cold (when the vehicle has
been driven less than one mile). If you must check inflation when the
tires are hot, add 4 psi (27 kPa) to the recommended cold inflation
pressure. It is difficult to tell just by looking at radial tires whether
they are underinflated.*
WARNING!
Vehicle handling, traction, ride comfort and other performance
pa
rameters may be significantly affected by a change in tire size
or type. Before replacing tires, always consult and follow the
vehicle owner’s manual because some vehicle manufacturers
prohibit changing tire size. When selecting tires that are different
from the original equipment size make certain:
1. The tires have adequate load-carrying capacity based on the
v
ehicle placard,
2. The tires have sufficient inflation pressure to carry the load and
3
. There is proper clearance with no interference points between
t
he tire and vehicle.
The consumer must be aware to always drive safely and obey all
tr
affic laws. Avoid sudden, sharp turns or aggressive lane
changes. Failure to follow any of these warnings may result in
loss of control of the vehicle, leading to an accident and serious
injury or death.

GOODYEAR® DUNLOP® TIRES
126
Furthermore, when operating a vehicle equipped with radial tires, it
is difficult to notice when a tire has gone flat or nearly flat since the
“feel” of the vehicle does not change significantly.
*Evidence of air loss or repeated underinflation always requires
ex
pert inspection to determine the source of leakage and tire
removal to determine repairability. To avoid injury, NEVER attempt
to reinflate a tire that has been run severely underinflated. Progressive
air loss may result from punctures, cuts, curbing, impacts or partial
bead unseating. Some fitment causes for air loss are (1) incomplete
bead seating, (2) bead tearing caused by a machine tool due to
insufficient lubrication or improper adjustment. Leaking valve core or
rubber valve components should be replaced when problems are
detected and whenever tires are replaced.
Always maintain inflation pressure at the level recommended by
t h

e vehicle manufacturer as shown on the vehicle placard, vehicle
certification label or in the vehicle Owner’s Manual:
Under inflation is the leading cause of tire failure and may result in
se
vere cracking, component separation or “blowout.” It reduces tire
load capacity, allows excessive sidewall flexing and increases rolling
resistance, resulting in heat and mechanical damage. Maintaining
proper inflation pressure is the single most important thing you can
do to promote tire durability and maximize tread life.
Over inflation increases stiffness, which may deteriorate ride and
ge
nerate unwanted vibration. Over inflation also increases the
chances of impact damage.
DON’T OVERLOAD YOUR VEHICLE
Check your vehicle Owner’s Manual to determine the load limits.
Ov
erloading your vehicle places stress on your tires and other critical
vehicle components. Overloading a vehicle can cause poor handling
or increased fuel consumption and may cause tire failure.
Overloading your tires can result in severe cracking, component
separation or “blowout.”
Never fit your vehicle with new tires that have less load capacity than
sh
own on the vehicle tire placard and remember that optimum rim
width is important for proper tire load distribution and function. The
maximum load capacity stamped on the sidewalls of P-Metric &
European Metric tires is reduced by 10% when used on a light truck,
utility vehicle or trailer. Never fit P-Metric or European Metric tires to
light trucks that specify LT-type replacement tires.

GOODYEAR® DUNLOP® TIRES
127
DO NOT SPIN YOUR TIRES EXCESSIVELY
Avoid excessive tire spinning when your vehicle is stuck in snow, ice,
mu
d or sand. The centrifugal forces generated by a free-spinning tire/
wheel assembly may cause sudden tire explosion, resulting in vehicle
damage and/or serious personal injury to you or a bystander. Never
exceed 35 mph (55 km/h), as indicated on your speedometer. Use a
ge

ntle backward and forward rocking motion to free your vehicle for
continued driving. Never stand near or behind a tire spinning at high
speeds, for example, while attempting to push a vehicle that is stuck
or when an on-the-car spin balance machine is in use.
DO CHECK YOUR TIRES FOR WEAR
Always remove tires from service when they reach two thirty-seconds
of
an inch (2/32") remaining tread depth. All new tires have tread
wear indicators which appear as smooth banks in the tread grooves
when they wear to the two thirty seconds of an inch (2/32") level.
Many wet weather accidents result from skidding on bald or nearly
bald tires. Excessively worn tires are also more susceptible to
penetrations.
DO CHECK YOUR TIRES FOR DAMAGE
Frequent (at least monthly) inspection of your tires for signs of
da
mage and their general condition is important for safety. If you
have any questions, have your tire dealer inspect them. Impacts,
penetrations, cracks, knots, bulges or air loss always require tire
removal and expert inspection. Never perform a temporary repair or
use an inner tube as a substitute for a proper repair. Only qualified
persons should repair tires.
PROPER TIRE REPAIR
Goodyear® does not warrant any inspection or repair process. The
re
pair is entirely the responsibility of the repairer and should be made
in accordance with established Rubber Manufacturers Association
(RMA) procedures.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Alert
Refer to your vehicle Owner’s Manual for more information on what
to
do if the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) alert activates.

THE CONVENIENCE (TEMPORARY) SPARE
The Convenience (Temporary) Spare is designed, built and tested to
th
e high engineering standards set by North America’s leading car
manufacturers and to Goodyear’s own high standards of quality
control. It is designed to take up a minimum of storage space and, at
the same time, fulfill the function of a spare tire when needed. The
spare is kept in its storage space, fully inflated at 60 psi. To be sure it
is always ready for use, the air pressure should be checked on a
regular basis.
The Convenience (Temporary) Spare can be used in combination with
th
e original tires on your vehicle. You can expect a tire tread life of up
to 3,000 miles (4,800 kilometers), depending on road conditions and
yo

ur driving habits. To conserve tire tread life, return the spare to the
storage area as soon as it is convenient to have the standard tire
repaired or replaced.
The Convenience (Temporary) Spare weighs less than a standard tire
so
it’s easier to handle. It also helps reduce the total car weight, which
contributes to fuel economy. The wheels used with the Convenience
(Temporary) Spare are specifically designed for use with high
pressure spares and should never be used with any other type tire.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO MOUNT YOUR OWN TIRES
Serious injury or death may result from explosion of tire/rim
as
sembly due to improper mounting procedures. Follow tire
manufacturer’s instructions and match tire diameter to rim diameter.
Mount light truck radials on rims approved for radial service. Do not
apply bead sealer. This can inhibit bead seating. Lubricate beads and
tire rim (including tube or flap) contact surfaces. Lock assembly on
mounting machine or place in safety cage. STAND BACK and never
exceed 40 psi to seat beads. Never use a volatile substance or a rubber
“donut” (also known as a bead expander or “O-Ring”) to aid bead
seating. Only specially trained persons should mount tires.
DO NOT MIX TIRES OF DIFFERENT SIZES AND TYPES ON THE
SA
ME AXLE
For optimum handling and control, Goodyear® recommends fitment
of
four tires of the same type and size unless otherwise specified by the
vehicle manufacturer.

GOODYEAR® DUNLOP® TIRES
129
When replacing tires, you must maintain the outside diameter and
load-carrying capacity of the Original Equipment tire. Inflation
pressure may need to be adjusted to avoid overloading the tire.
Consult the Tire & Rim Association Load and Inflation Tables,
European Tire and Rim Technical Organization (ETRTO) or Japan
Automobile Tyre Manufacturers Association (JATMA) standards for
correct load and inflation information.
NEVER FIT TIRES TO A VEHICLE THAT HAVE LESS
LO
AD-CARRYING CAPACITY THAN REQUIRED BY THE
ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURER
Examples: Many vehicles, such as large passenger vans, require Load
Ra
nge E tires as designated by the vehicle manufacturer. Fitment of a
tire, such as a Load Range D, with less carrying capacity is not
allowed. In other cases, tires of the same size may carry different load
indexes in the service description. You must make certain the
replacement tires fitted to the vehicle have a load-carrying capacity
equal to or greater than what the Original Equipment manufacturer
specifies.

NOTE:

Goodyear® manufactured and/or marketed European- Metric
pa
ssenger tires and P-Metric passenger tires are interchangeable as
long as they have the same section width, same aspect ratio, same rim
diameter.
WARNING!
Before you replace your tires, always consult the vehicle owner’s
ma
nual and follow the vehicle manufacturer’s replacement tire
recommendations. Vehicle handling may be significantly affected
by a change in tire size or type. When selecting tires that are
different from the Original Equipment size, see a professional
installer in order to make certain that proper clearance,
load-carrying capacity and inflation pressure are selected. Never
exceed the maximum load capacity and inflation pressure listed
on the sidewall of the tire. Always drive safely and obey all traffic
laws. Avoid sudden, sharp turns or aggressive lane changes.
Failure to follow this warning may result in loss of control of the
vehicle, leading to an accident and serious injury or death.

HOW TO READ A TIRE DOT SERIAL NUMBER
DOT stands for Department of Transportation and the number is on
th
e lower sidewall of each tire to show that the tire meets or exceeds
the Department of Transportation safety standards.
TIRE SERVICE LIFE
Tires are designed and built to provide many thousands of miles/
k i

lometers of excellent service. For maximum benefit, tires must be
maintained properly to avoid tire damage that may result in removal
from service before the tread is worn down to minimum depth.
It is not practical to accurately predict the service life of any specific
ti
re in chronological time since service conditions vary widely. The
serviceability of a tire over time is a function of the storage and service
conditions (inflation pressure, load, speed, road hazard injury, etc.) to
which a tire is subjected. Consumers should not rely solely on the
appearance of the tire, but should be aware of any change in dynamic
performance such as increased air loss, noise or vibration, which could
be a sign to remove the tire. Therefore, it is essential to have tires,
including spares, inspected regularly (at least monthly) for proper
inflation pressure, damage and treadwear.
Check your vehicle’s Owner’s Manual (or your vehicle) to
de
termine if it is equipped with run-flat (extended mobility) tires.
