TIRE WEAR – VISUAL CHECK
If you experience a blowout or a sudden tire failure, the following information should be
helpful:
• W hen the tire failure occurs, you may hear a loud noise, or feel a vibration, and/or the
v
ehicle may pull toward the side of the failed tire. Do not abruptly brake or turn.
• M aintain steady pressure on the accelerator pedal.
•
Hold the steering wheel firmly and steer to maintain your lane position.
•
Find a safe place to pull off the road and allow the vehicle to gradually decelerate.
A
pply light braking as required to stop safely.
WARNING!


Beware of Sudden Tire Vibration. A tire failure may lead to loss of vehicle control,
which could cause serious personal injury or death. Many tire failures are preceded by
vibration, bumps, bulges, or irregular wear. If while driving your vehicle you experience
any unusual vibration, pull, ride disturbance, or noise and/or you suspect possible
vehicle or tire damage, do not continue to drive. Pull over to a safe area as soon as
possible and inspect the tires for signs of bulges, blisters, or separations. Seek
roadside assistance or change the damaged tire with your spare tire.

4. Remove these tires from the vehicle and deflate to half the normal air-pressure during prolonged periods of non-use or storage.
Always inspect tires for signs of cracking and never use tires that have cracked.
SPECIAL ADVICE FOR LIGHT TRUCKS
Never exceed the speed limit as indicated by the speed symbol on the tire’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 your Toyo Tires®
d e

aler or Toyo Tire U.S.A. Corp. for current information.
TIRES DESIGNATED AS “LT” WITH NO SPEED RATING INDICATED ON THE SIDEWALL

It is not recommended that any light truck be operated at speeds in excess of legal limits.
However, if it is anticipated that sustained driving at speeds in excess of 65 mph may be
r e

quired, then the following adjustments or recommendations should be followed:
• A t speeds from 66 m
ph through 75 mph, cold inflation pressure must be increased
10 psi above the recommended pressures for the load being carried.
• D o not exceed the maximum inflation pressure of the wheel (all wheels have
m
aximum allowable inflation pressures).
WARNING!


Improper storage can damage your tires in ways that may not be visible and could lead
to serious personal injury or death.

REPLACEMENT TIRES FOR LIGHT TRUCKS – P-METRIC VS . LT-TRUCK
Tire installers should exercise extreme caution when replacing tires on light trucks.
The maximum load capacity stamped on the sidewall of a P-metric tire is reduced by a
fa

ctor of 1.1 when used on a light truck, a sport utility vehicle, or a trailer.
When a P-metric or metric tire is installed on a light truck (SUV, pickup, minivan), the load
r a

ting is reduced by dividing by 1.1. (This load reduction factor is prescribed by Federal
Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) and is based on the expectation that
passenger-type tires may experience more severe loading and usage conditions when
applied to light trucks.) For example, 305/50R20 has a maximum load capacity of
3,086 lb. If this tire is fitted to a light truck, the actual allowable load for the tire is
2,805 lb (3,086 lb divided by 1.1).
Consult the load and inflation charts that can be found at www.toyotires.com. Contact
Toyo Tires® Technical Service with any tire replacement questions: 1 -
800-442-8696
(Pacific Time) or 1-888-444-8696 (Eastern Time).
WARNING!


• P-metric and LT-metric tires are not necessarily interchangeable. P-metric and LT-metric tires follow completely different Load/ Inflation tables and are designed to
carry different loads at different pressures.
• LT -metric tires carry their load at higher inflation pressures and do not always have
a
dequate load capacity to replace P-metric tires of the same size.
• A fter reducing a P-metric tire’s load rating by dividing by 1.1 for fitment on a Light
T
ruck, the P-metric tire may not offer sufficient load capacity to replace an LT-metric
tire of the same size.
• C ontact your Toyo Tires® dealer or Toyo Tires® Technical Service for help deter -
m
ining how to choose a proper replacement size.
• D riving with underinflated or overloaded tires may result in immediate tire failure,
w
hich can cause an accident and could lead to serious personal injury or death.

VEHICLES WITH MODIFIED SUSPENSION
USEFUL TIRE INFORMATION
There is a lot of useful information molded into the sidewall of a tire. It shows the name
of the tire, its size, if it is tubeless or tube type, the maximum load and maximum
inflation, and important safety warnings. The sidewall markings on passenger and light
truck tires are slightly different.

WARNING!


Large-diameter tires and modified suspensions that increase ground
clearance will alter vehicle handling.
• The vehicle may become more likely to roll over.
•
Braking distances may increase.
•
Slower speeds may be required to maintain control.
D
rive with extreme caution until you become familiar with how your vehicle handles.
