It is especially important to check the vehicle manufacturer’s Owner’s
Manual when mixing, matching or replacing tires on 4 Wheel Drive
(4WD) vehicles, as this may require special precautions.
BFGOODRICH® DOES NOT RECOMMEND MIXING SELF
SU
PPORTING STRUCTURE (SSS) TIRES WITH NON-SSS TIRES
OTHER THAN THE TEMPORARY USE OF THE SPARE TIRE.
WINTER DRIVING
Tires which meet the Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA)
de
finition of snow tires are marked M/S, M&S. On such tires, this
designation is molded into the sidewall. Tires without this notation
are not recommended for winter driving.
While All-Season tires are designed to provide reliable
performance in some winter conditions, the use of four
wi
nter tires is recommended for optimum perfor -
mance. Tires designated for use in severe winter condi -
tions are marked on at least one sidewall with the letter
“M

” and “S” plus a pictograph of a mountain with a snowflake on it.
TIRE ROTATION AND REPLACEMENT
To obtain maximum tire wear, it may be necessary to rotate your tires.
Re
fer to your vehicle Owner’s Manual for instructions on tire rotation.
If you do not have an Owner‘s Manual for your vehicle, BFGoodrich®
recommends rotating your tires every 6,000 to 8,000 miles (10,000 to
12

,000 km).
Monthly inspection for tire wear is recommended. Your tires should
be
rotated at the first sign of irregular wear, even if it occurs before
6,000 miles (10,000 km). This is true for all vehicles.
When rotating tires with a directional tread pattern, observe the
ar
rows molded on the sidewall which show the direction the tire
should turn. Care must be taken to maintain the proper turning
direction.
Some Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS) may not recognize
th
at a tire has been moved to a different position on your vehicle.
Make certain that your TPMS system is reset, if necessary, so as to
correctly identify the location of each tire on your vehicle. Refer to
your vehicle Owner’s Manual or your vehicle dealer.
Determine whether rotated tires require tire inflation adjustment as
fr
ont and rear position tire pressure may vary according to the vehicle

BFGOODRICH® TIRES

manufacturer’s specification due to the actual load on that wheel
position. Some vehicles may have different sized tires mounted on the
front and rear axles, and these different sized tires have rotation
restrictions. Always check the vehicle Owner’s Manual for the proper
rotation recommendations.
FULL-SIZE SPARE
Full-size spare tires (not temporary spares) of the same size and
co
nstruction should be used in a five tire rotation. Always check the
inflation pressure of the full-size spare immediately before
incorporating it into rotation. Follow the vehicle manufacturer’s
recommended pattern for rotation, or if not available, see a qualified
tire technician.
REPLACEMENT OF TWO TIRES
It is recommended that all four tires are replaced at the same time.
Ho
wever, whenever only two tires are replaced, the new ones should
be put on the rear. The new tires, with deeper tread, may provide
better grip and water evacuation in wet driving conditions.
CUSTOMIZATION OF TIRES, WHEELS, OR SUSPENSION ON
SU
VS AND LIGHT TRUCKS
Due to their size, weight and higher center of gravity, vehicles such as
SU
Vs and light trucks do not
have the same handling characteristics
as automobiles. Because of these differing characteristics, failure to
operate your SUV/truck in a proper and safe manner can increase the
likelihood of vehicle rollover. Modifications to your SUV/truck tire
size, tire type, wheels or suspension can change its handling
characteristics and further increase the likelihood of vehicle rollover.
Whether your SUV/truck has the original equipment configuration
for tires, wheels and suspension or whether any of these items have
been modified, always drive safely, avoid sudden, sharp turns or lane
changes and obey all traffic laws. Failure to do so may result in loss of
vehicle control leading to an accident and serious injury or death.
TIRE ALTERATIONS
Do not make or allow to be made any alterations on your tires.
Al
terations may prevent proper performance, leading to tire damage
which can result in an accident. Tires which become unserviceable due
to alterations such as trueing, whitewall inlays, addition of balancing
or sealant liquids, or the use of tire dressing containing petroleum
distillates are excluded from warranty coverage.

vehicles have specific recommendations regarding Winter tire use;
consult your vehicle Owner’s Manual and tire information placard.
• If Winter tires are to be applied to the front axle of any vehicle, they
m
ust also be applied to the rear axle for safe operation. This applies
to all passenger cars and light trucks, including Front Wheel Drive
(FWD), Four Wheel Drive (4WD) and All Wheel Drive (AWD) vehi -
cles.
• If Winter tires are to be applied to the rear axle of any vehicle, it is
r
ecommended that they also be installed on the front axle.
• It is generally acceptable to apply a tire with a lower speed rating
t
han your original tires for use in Winter weather conditions;
however, speed should be reduced accordingly. All Winter tires
should be the same speed rating. See “Tire Speed Ratings” in this
manual.
• Winter tires used in warmer, Summer weather conditions may wear
m
ore rapidly.
• Studded Winter tires follow the same recommendations as above;
c
onsult a qualified tire service professional for information
regarding any seasonal restrictions.
TIRE MIXING
HIGH SPEED DRIVING
• R egardless of the speed and handling capabilities of your car and its
t
ires, a loss of vehicle control can result from exceeding the
maximum speed allowed by law or warranted by traffic, weather,
vehicle, or road conditions.
WARNING!
Driving your vehicle with an improper mix of tires is dangerous.
Yo
ur vehicle’s handling characteristics can be seriously affected.
You could have an accident resulting in serious personal injury or
death. Consult your vehicle owner’s manual and a qualified tire
service professional for proper tire replacement.
WARNING!
Driving at high speed is dangerous and can cause a vehicle
ac
cident, including serious personal injury or death.

KUMHO TIRES

(Continued)
• Use an accurate tire gauge to check tire air pressures. Always
maintain the proper recommended air inflation pressure in all
tires. If there is an indication that one of your tires has lost four
or more pounds of air pressure, immediately look for signs of
penetration through the tire, valve leaks or wheel damage that
may account for the air loss. You should also have your tires
inspected by a tire retailer immediately.
• Air pressure should be checked when tires are cold (before they
h
ave been driven), ideally in the early morning. Driving, regard -
less of distance, causes tires to heat up and simultaneously
in
crease air pressure.
• Never exceed the maximum inflation pressure for the tire.
•
Never bleed air from hot tires as this may result in underinfla -
t
ion.
• Inspect your tires daily. If you notice any damage to your tires or
w
heels, replace them with a spare and immediately visit any tire
retailer for advice. Driving over potholes, curbs, wood debris,
metal, etc., can damage a tire and should be safely avoided.
Contact with such hazards requires an immediate and thorough
tire inspection by your tire retailer.
• Always examine your tires for penetrations, bulges, cracks, cuts,
a
nd abnormal wear – particularly at the tire edges – which may
be caused by, for example, vehicle misalignment or tire underin -
flation. Failure to properly control a vehicle when one or more
ti
res are underinflated may result in an accident. Use of a
damaged tire may result in rapid air loss, including sudden tire
failure.
• An explosion of the tire/rim assembly may occur due to improper
m
ounting. Only specially trained persons should mount tires.
• Failure to store tires in accordance with the following recom -
m
endations may result in damage to your tires, reduction in tire
du
rability, or sudden tire failure.
WARNING! (Continued)

MICHELIN®

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.
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

alignment and balance checked immediately. Tires which have been
ran underinflated will show more wear on the shoulders than in the
center of the tread.
TIRE MIXING
Michelin® tires are radial tires and for best performance it is
re
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.
It is especially important to check the vehicle manufacturer’s Owner’s
Ma
nual when mixing, matching, or replacing tires on 4-wheel drive
vehicles, as this may require special precautions.
MICHELIN® DOES NOT RECOMMEND MIXING PAX® SYSTEM
TI
RES WITH NON-PAX TIRES/SELF-SUPPORTING ZERO
PRESSURE (ZP) TIRES WITH NON-ZP TIRES OTHER THAN THE
TEMPORARY USE OF THE SPARE IF THE VEHICLE IS SO
EQUIPPED.
WINTER DRIVING

de
finition of snow tires are marked M/S, or M&S. On such tires, this
designation is molded into the sidewall. Tires without this notation
are not recommended or Winter driving.

PIRELLI TIRES
206
5. DOT Street Legal Competition Tires
P Zero Trofeo and P Zero Corsa tire lines use special tire construction
an
d compounds to achieve their distinctive performance in dry
conditions. As a result of that, their performance in cold temperatures,
heavy rain or standing water will be decreased. Use extreme caution
and drive slowly on wet roads.
The minimum tread depth will be reached earlier than normal road
ti
res, resulting in reduced tread life.
6. Winter Tires
The standard Pirelli tires may be effective in light snow conditions.
Ho
wever, for winter use, you may wish to install winter tires. During
winter use, Pirelli strongly recommends the fitment of four winter
tires. Please check your vehicle owner’s manual concerning winter tire
size recommendation. If the winter tires have a lower speed rating
than the original equipment tires, vehicle handling may be affected,
and the vehicle maximum speed must be reduced to the winter tire
speed rating.
Pirelli requires
that studded tires be installed on all four positions.
Installing studded tires only on the drive positions of any vehicle,
including a front wheel drive vehicle, may cause adverse handling
characteristics.
7. Run Flat Tires
Always refer to the vehicle owners’ manual with respect to specific
sa
fety and operating information relating to the vehicle. Damaged
Run Flat tires or Run Flat tires that have experienced a loss of pressure
should immediately be replaced with another Run Flat tire of identical
size and Service Description (Load Index and Speed Symbol).
Run Flat tires have been developed based on the specifications of the
ve
hicles on which they are mounted. Accordingly, Run Flat tires
should only be mounted on vehicles specifically manufactured to
accommodate Run Flat tires.
Run Flat tires must be mounted in conjunction with a functional Tire
Pr
essure Monitoring System (TPMS).
The mounting of tires and installation of the TPMS should be carried
ou
t by a specialized dealer.

8. Tire Replacement
The tires fitted to your vehicle as original equipment were tested and
ap
proved by the vehicle manufacturer and the tire manufacturer and
take into account all aspects of the vehicle’s operation. Changes in the
tire size, type or construction should not be made without seeking
advice from the vehicle or tire manufacturer or an authorized Pirelli
dealer since unapproved tires on your vehicle could adversely affect
steering, handling, braking and traction. The tire information (tire
size, load index and speed symbol) as found on the vehicle placard or
in the owner’s manual should always be followed when replacing
tires.
It is strongly recommended that Pirelli tires be mounted in sets of four
w i

th the same tread type. Pirelli tires should not be mixed with other
tire brands. It is necessary to follow this procedure because different
tire constructions have different handling characteristics. Tires on the
same axle must be the same manufacturer, brand, tire size, load index,
speed rating and Pirelli part number.

When changing only two tires on a vehicle which is homogeneously fitted
(f
our tires of the same tire size), fit the new tires on the rear axle. This
applies to all vehicles regardless of their drive axle. (Front or Rear Drive).

On all wheel drive or four wheel drive vehicles the tires must always
be
replaced in sets of four.
When replacing tires on light truck vehicles, you should always follow
th
e vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations. Passenger and light
truck tires are not interchangeable, due to differences in their
pressures and load carrying capacity.
P-Metric and Euro-metric Interchangeability: Euro-metric (Example:
22
5/45R17) tires have a load index which is equal to or greater than
that of the same size P-metric (Example: P225/45R17) tire. Therefore,
they have the same or higher load carrying capacity at the maximum
rated inflation pressure. Always check with your tire dealer or Pirelli
Tire Consumer Affairs to be sure of the exact interchangeability to
maintain proper vehicle dynamics.
Please be aware that it is important that, before fitting the suggested
ti
res, the fitment is allowed by the technical specifications of the
vehicle, the vehicle manufacturer and the relevant homologations.
Pirelli Tire does not express any view as to the compatibility of the
wheel/tire combination with the technical specifications for the
chassis and vehicle.
