Tire Safety Information

Tire safety information will cover aspects of the following information: Tire Markings, Tire
Identification Numbers, Tire Terminology and Definitions, Tire Pressures, and Tire Loading.

Tire Markings
Tire Markings
NOTE:
• P (Passenger) — Metric tire sizing is based on US design standards. P-Metric tires haveth

e letter “P” molded into the sidewall preceding the size designation. Example: P215/
65R15XL 95H.
• European — Metric tire sizing is based on European design standards. Tires designed to

this standard have the tire size molded into the sidewall beginning with the section
width. The letter "P" is absent from this tire size designation. Example: 215/65R15
96H.
• LT (Light Truck) — Metric tire sizing is based on US design standards. The size desig -
n a

tion for LT-Metric tires is the same as for P-Metric tires except for the letters “LT”
th a

t are molded into the sidewall preceding the size designation. Example: LT235/
85R16C.
• Temporary spare tires are designed for temporary emergency use only. Temporary hi

gh pressure compact spare tires have the letter “T” or “S” molded into the sidewall
preceding the size designation. Example: T145/80D18 103M.
• High flotation tire sizing is based on US design standards and it begins with the tire di

ameter molded into the sidewall. Example: 31x10.5 R15 LT.

This manual is not intended to provide proper training or service procedures for tire
mounting, demounting, balancing, rotation, or repair. Please leave these tasks to
qualified tire service professionals. For your safety and that of others:
• A lways stand well clear of any tire mounting operation. This is especially important
w
hen the service operator inflates the tire. If the tire has been improperly mounted, it
may burst with explosive force causing serious personal injury or death.
• T ires must match the width and diameter requirements of the wheels. For example,
1
6 inch diameter tires must only be mounted to 16 inch diameter wheels. Radial tires
m u

st only be mounted to wheels approved for radial tires.
• W heels must be free of cracks, dents, chips, and rust. Tires must be free of bead
d
amage, cuts, and punctures.
• N ever inflate a tire beyond 40 psi (275 kPa) to seat the beads. Be absolutely certain
b
eads are fully seated before adjusting inflation pressure to the level recommended
for vehicle operation.
• N ever put flammable substances in tire/wheel assemblies at any time. Never put any
f
lammable substance into a tire/wheel assembly and attempt to ignite to seat the
beads.
• A lways stand well away from the work area when tires are being spin balanced either
o
n or off the vehicle.
HIGH PERFORMANCE, LOW ASPECT RATIO TIRES
Many new vehicles come equipped from the factory with high performance and/or low
aspect ratio tires. Generally, these tires provide increased vehicle handling capability,
but may also have numerous engineering performance trade-offs associated with their
designs.
• Lo w aspect ratio tires, with reduced sidewall height, may be more susceptible to
d
amage from potholes, road hazards, and other objects such as curbs. This is true for
the wheels as well. Therefore, as with all other tires, it is important to drive with care
and maintain proper inflation pressure and load conditions. See “Tire Inflation Pres -
sure” and “Tire Damage, Inspection and Service Life” in this manual.
• Some sports cars and other handling performance enhanced vehicles, including s
edans and light trucks/SUVs, may be originally equipped with high performance tires
that are more optimized for warmer weather use. Colder, winter weather traction may
be reduced for these types of tires. Winter tires may be recommended by the vehicle
manufacturer for colder weather application. See “Winter Tires,” the next section in
this manual.
• H igh performance tires may also wear more quickly, ride more firmly, and produce
m
ore noise during operation.
Consult your vehicle Owner’s Manual and tire information placard, or a qualified tire
s e

rvice professional, for more information and specifics regarding these types of tires.

TIRE MIXING
• Toyo Tires® recommends that all four tires be of the same size, speed 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.
• M atch tire size designations in pairs on an axle, except during the temporary use of a
s
pare tire.
• I f two radial tires and two non-radial tires are used on a vehicle, put the radials on the
r
ear 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 Manual specifies speed-rated tires, the replacement tires must have the same or higher speed rating to
maintain vehicle speed capability.
• I f a replacement tire has a lower speed capability than that specified by the vehicle
m
anufacturer, 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.
• I f tires with different speed ratings are used, it is recommended that the lower speed-
r
ated tires always be placed on the front axle. This is to prevent a potential oversteer
condition.
• E
xceeding the maximum bead seating pressure of 40 psi. Be absolutely certain
b
eads are fully seated before adjusting the inflation pressure to the level recom -
mended for vehicle operation.
Never put flammable substances in the tire/wheel assemblies at any time. Never put
a n

y 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, constructions, 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.
