Tire size (P. 596)
Summer tires or all season tires ( P. 4 8 0 )
An all season tire has “M+S” on the sidewall. A tire not marked “M+S”
is a summer tire.
TUBELESS or TUBE TYPE
A tubeless tire does not have a tube and air is directly put into the tire.
A tube type tire has a tube insi de the tire and the tube mainta ins the air
pressure.
Radial tires or bias-ply tires
A radial tire has “RADIAL” on the sidewall. A tire not marked “ RADIAL”
is a bias-ply tire.
DOT and Tire Identification Number (TIN) ( P. 5 9 5 )
Location of treadwear indicators ( P. 4 7 3 )
Uniform tire quality grading
For details, see “Uniform Tire Q uality Grading” that follows.
Maximum cold tire in flation pressure (P. 584)
This means the press ure to which a tire may be inflated.
Load limit at maximum cold tire inflation pressure ( P. 479)
Tire ply composition and materials
Plies are layers of rubber-coated parallel cords. Cords are the strands
which form the p lies in a tire.
“TEMPORARY USE ONLY”
A compact spare tire is identified by the phrase “TEMPORARY USE
ONLY” molded on its sidewall. This tire is designed for tempora ry
emergency use only.
