Ideally, tires should be replaced as sets of
four. If this is not possible, replace the tires in
pairs (front and rear). When tires are replaced,
the wheels should always be re-balanced and
alignment checked.
Asymmetric tires
WARNING: Vehicle traction and
handling will be seriously impaired if
the tires are incorrectly installed on the
wheels.
Your vehicle is equipped with Asymmetric tires
that have different tread patterns on the outer
and inner edge of the tire. On the outside edge,
the tread pattern exhibits large tread blocks
that are designed to provide dry traction and
handling thanks to a larger contact area with
the road.
On the inside edge, the tread block is smaller to
provide better wet grip. An increased number of
grooves helps disperse water on wet roads and
reduce the risk of aquaplaning. This means the
tire is built to provide great performance in both
wet and dry conditions.
Asymmetric tires must be mounted on the
wheel with the correct sidewall facing outwards
from the vehicle. The sidewall of the tire is
marked with the word OUTSIDE.
When new tires are installed, always make sure
the tires are correctly oriented.
Run-flat tires
CAUTION: The installation of run-flat
tires is not recommended by Lucid as
they may cause issues with the sensors
for the Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS).
Seasonal Tire Types
Summer tires
Your vehicle may be originally equipped with
high-performance summer tires. Summer tires
are designed for maximum dry and wet road
performance but are not designed to perform
well in winter conditions.
Lucid recommends using winter tires if driving
in cold temperatures or on roads where snow or
ice may be present.
WARNING: Summer tires are not
designed to provide adequate traction
during cold temperatures, on snow,
or ice. Selecting and installing the
appropriate tires for winter conditions
is important to ensure the safety and
optimum performance of your vehicle.
All-season tires
Your vehicle may be originally equipped with
all-season tires. These tires are designed to
provide adequate traction in most conditions
year-round, but may not provide the same level
of traction as winter tires in snowy or icy
conditions. All-season tires can be identified by
ALL SEASON and/or M+S (mud and snow) on
the tire sidewall.
Winter tires
WARNING: Always follow the tire
manufacturer’s instructions. Pay special
attention to the maximum speed you
can drive your vehicle and the correct
tire pressures.
WARNING: The traction provided by
winter tires on dry roads may be less
than your original specification tires.
Use winter tires to increase traction when
driving in sustained temperatures below 50°F
(10°C), or in snowy or icy conditions.
For winter tires, always install a complete set
of four tires at the same time. All winter
tires should be the same diameter, brand,
construction, and tread pattern on all four
wheels.
For recommendations on winter tires, contact
your Lucid Service Center.
