WHEELS AND TIRES

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 may result in loss of control. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.


Factory-installed tires and wheels are designed to operate satisfactorily with loads up to and including full-rated load capacity when inflated to recommended inflation pressures
Correct tire pressure and driving techniques have an important influence on tire life. Heavy cornering, excessively rapid acceleration and unnecessary sharp braking increase tire wear.
The spare tire is mounted in the luggage compartment under the mat The valve stem should be on the bottom side of the tire to reduce the possibility of accidental valve stem air leakage.
To equalize tire wear, the tires should be rotated at recommended intervals.
