When a customer requests a replacement tire with a lower speed rating than the original equipment tire, you must clearly communicate to him or her that the handling of the vehicle may be different, and that its maximum speed capability is limited to that of the lowest speed-rated tire on the vehicle. Inflation pressure increase must not exceed the maximum pressure branded on the tire sidewall. Before mixing types of tires in any configuration on any vehicle, be sure to check the vehicle owner's manual for its recommendations.ĭANGER: Never mount a 16" diameter tire on a 16.5" rim.ĭANGER: Never mount a 17" diameter tire on a 17.5" rim. Only tire professionals should mount tires and they should never inflate beyond 40 psi to seat the beads. Serious injury or death may result from explosion of tire/rim assembly due to improper mounting. To ensure correct air pressure and vehicle load, refer to vehicle owner's manual or tire information placard on the vehicle. WARNING: Serious or fatal injury may result from tire failure due to underinflation or overloading. Tires for a particular dimension of a given tireline may vary in appearance from the tire shown in the photograph. > Tread patterns are often tuned to accomodate different tire widths. > Section width varies approximately 0.2" (5mm) for every 0.5" change in rim width. Some tires may vary from this value by +/-3% of the section height (affecting overall diameter), and +/-4% of the section width. > The sizes shown are average design values for tires measured on specified measuring rim widths. ZP = Zero Pressure Run-Flat Technology, ZP SR = Zero Pressure Short Range Run-Flat Technology OE Code : L = Lexus, MB = Mercedes-Benz, AU = Audi, BM = BMW, SU = Subaru OE Sidewall Marking: * = BMW, MO = Mercedes-Benz, MO S1 = Mercedes-Benz Low Emission, AO = Audi, AOE = Audi Extended, A0 S1 = Audi Low Emission
