Replacement Notes

WARNING: DO NOT MIX DIFFERENT TYPES OF TIRES ON THE SAME VEHICLE SUCH AS RADIAL, BIAS OR BIAS-BELTED TIRES EXCEPT IN EMERGENCIES (TEMPORARY SPARE USAGE), BECAUSE VEHICLE HANDLING MAY BE SERIOUSLY AFFECTED AND LOSS OF CONTROL MAY RESULT.

When replacing tires, only tires of the size, speed rating, load range and construction type (radial) originally installed on the vehicle are recommended. Use of any other tire size or type may seriously affect the following:
^ ride
^ handling
^ speedometer/odometer calibration
^ vehicle ground clearance
^ tire clearance to the body and chassis

Consider the following when replacing tires:
1. To achieve best all around vehicle performance, tires of different construction should not be mixed on the same vehicle.
2. New tires should be installed in pairs on the same axle.
3. When replacing only one tire, it should be paired with the tire having the most tread, to equalize braking traction.
4. Snow tires should be of a size and type equivalent to other tires on the vehicle as recommended on the tire decal.
