2021 MAZDA MODEL CX-30 tires

NOTE
Some spare tires require higher
inflation pressure.
8. Visually inspect the tires to make sure there are no nails or other
objects embedded that could poke
a hole in the tire and cause an air
leak.
9. Check the sidewalls to make sure there are no gouges, cuts, bulges,
cracks or other irregularities.
▼Glossary of Terms
Tire Placard:
A label indicating the OE
tire sizes, recommended inflation
pressure, and the maximum weight the
vehicle can carry.
Tire Identification Number (TIN): A
number on the sidewall of each tire
providing information about the tire
brand and manufacturing plant, tire
size, and date of manufacture.
Inflation Pressure: A measure of the
amount of air in a tire.
kPa: Kilopascal, the metric unit for air
pressure.
psi: Pounds per square inch, the
English unit for air pressure.
B-pillar: The structural member at the
side of the vehicle behind the front
door.
Original Equipment (OE): Describes
components originally equipped on
the vehicle.
Vehicle Load Limit: The maximum
value of the combination weight of
occupants and cargo.
Bead Area of the Tire: Area of the tire
next to the rim.
Sidewall Area of the Tire: Area
between the bead area and the tread.
Tread Area of the Tire: Area on the
perimeter of the tire that contacts the
road when it's mounted on the
vehicle.

Seating capacity means the total
allowable number of vehicle
occupants. Seating capacity is
described on the tire label.

Production options weight is the
combination weight of installed regular
production options weighing over 2.3
kilograms in excess of the standard
items which they replace, and not
previously considered in the curb
weight or accessory weight, including
heavy duty brakes, ride levelers, roof
rack, heavy duty battery, and special
trim.

Rim is the metal support (wheel) for a
tire or a tire and tube assembly upon
which the tire beads are seated.

Tire Maintenance
▼Tire Maintenance
Improper or inadequate vehicle
maintenance can cause tires to wear
abnormally. Here are some important
maintenance points:
▼Tire
Inflation Pressure
Inspect all tire pressure monthly
(including the spare) when the tires are
cold. Maintain recommended
pressures for the best ride, top
handling , and minimum tire wear. Use
the pressures specified on the vehicle
tire information placard or tire label for
optimum service.
▼Tire Rotation
To equalize tread wear, rotate the tires
every 16,000 km (10,000 miles) at the
latest or sooner if irregular wear
develops. Mazda recommends to
rotate every 8,000 km (5,000 miles) to
help increase tire life and distribute
wear more evenly.
1. Forward
Do not include (TEMPORARY USE
ONLY) spare tire in rotation.

Inspect the tires for uneven wear and
damage. Abnormal wear is usually
caused by one or a combination of the
following:
Incorrect tire pressure
Improper wheel alignmentOut-of-balance wheelSevere braking
After rotation, inflate all tire pressures
to specification on page 9-8 and
inspect the lug nuts for tightness.
CAUTION
Rotate unidirectional tires and radial
tires that have an asymmetrical tread
pattern or studs only from front to rear,
not from side to side. Tire performance
will be weakened if rotated from side
to side.
▼ Replacing a Tire
WARNING
Always use tires that are in good
condition:
Driving with worn tires is dangerous.
Reduced braking , steering , and
traction could result in an accident.
If a tire wears evenly, a wear indicator
will appear as a solid band across the
tread.
Replace the tire when this happens.
1. New tread
2. Worn tread
3. Tread wear indicator

You should replace the tire before the
band crosses the entire tread.

NOTE
Tires degrade over time, even when
they are not being used on the road. It
is recommended that tires generally be
replaced when they are 6 years or
older. Heat caused by hot climates or
frequent high loading conditions can
accelerate the aging process. You
should replace the spare tire when you
replace the other road tires due to the
aging of the spare tire. The period in
which the tire was manufactured (both
week and year) is indicated by a 4-digit
number.
Refer to Tire Labeling on page 8-24.
▼Safety Practices
The way you drive has a great deal to
do with your tire mileage and safety.
So cultivate good driving habits for
your own benefit.
Observe posted speed limits and
drive at speeds that are safe for the
existing weather conditions
Avoid fast starts, stops and turnsAvoid potholes and objects on the
road
Do not run over curbs or hit the tire
against the curb when parking
CAUTION
If you feel a sudden vibration or ride
disturbance while driving or you
suspect your tire or vehicle has been
damaged, immediately reduce your
speed. Drive with caution until you can
safely pull
off the road. Stop and
inspect the tire for damage. If the tire
is under-inflated or damaged, deflate
it, remove the tire and rim and replace
it with your spare tire. If you cannot
detect a cause, have the vehicle towed
to the nearest vehicle or tire dealer to
have the vehicle inspected.

WARNING
Do not tow a trailer with this vehicle:
Towing a trailer with this vehicle is
dangerous because it has not been
designed to tow a trailer and doing so
will
affect the drive system which could
result in vehicle damage.
This section will guide you in the
proper loading of your vehicle, to keep
your loaded vehicle weight within its
design rating capability. Properly
loading your vehicle will provide
maximum return of vehicle design
performance. Before loading your
vehicle, familiarize yourself with the
following terms for determining your
vehicle's weight ratings, from the
vehicle's Safety Certification Label and
Tire and Load Information Label:
WARNING
Overloaded Vehicle:
Overloading a vehicle is dangerous.
The results of overloading can have
serious consequences in terms of
passenger safety. Too much weight on
a vehicle's suspension system can
cause spring or shock absorber failure,
brake failure, handling or steering
problems, irregular tire wear, tire
failure or other damage.

WARNING
Never Exceed Axle Weight Rating
Limits:
Exceeding the Safety Certification
Label axle weight rating limits is
dangerous and could result in death or
serious injury as a result of substandard
vehicle handling, pe rformance, engine,
transmission and/or structural
damage, serious damage to the
vehicle, or loss of control.
Always keep the vehicle within the axle
weight rating limits.

GCW
GCW (Gross Combination Weight) is
the weight of the loaded vehicle
(GVW).

GCWR (Gross Combination Weight
Rating) is the maximum allowable
weight of the vehicle - including all
cargo and passengers - that the vehicle
can handle without risking damage.
The GCW must never exceed the
GCWR.

WARNING
Never Exceed GVWR or GAWR
Specifications:
Exceeding the GVWR or the GAWR
specified on the certification label is
dangerous. Exceeding any vehicle
rating limitation could result in a
serious accident, injury, or damage to
the vehicle.
Do not use replacement tires with
lower load carrying capacities than the
originals because they may lower the
vehicle's GVWR and GAWR
limitations. Replacement tires with a
higher limit than the originals do not
increase the GVWR and GAWR
limitations.
Never exceed the GVWR or the GAWR
specified on the certification label.
