CAUTION

Rotate unidirectional tires and radial tires that have an asymmetrical tread pattern

or studs only from front to rear, not from side to side. Tire performance will be

weakened if rotated from side to side.

(With limited-slip differential)

Don't use the following:

Ø Tires not of the designated size

Ø Tires of different sizes or types at the same time

Ø Tires not suffic iently inflated

If these instructions aren't followed, the rotation of the left and right wheels will be

different and will thus apply a constant load on the limited-slip differential.

This will cause a malfunction.

qReplacing a Tire

WARNING

Always use tires that are in good condition:

Driving with worn tires is dangerous. Reduced braking, steering, and traction could

result in an accident.

If a tire wears evenly, a wear indicator will appear as a solid band across the tread.

Replace the tire when this happens.

Worn tread

You should replace the tire before the band crosses the entire tread.
