Tire Service Life

The life of your tires is dependent on many factors, including driving habits, road

conditions, vehicle loading, inﬂation pressure, maintenance history, speed, and

environmental conditions (even when the tires are not in use).

In addition to regular inspections and ination pressure maintenance, it is

recommended that you have annual inspections performed once the tires reach

ve years old. All tires, including the spare, should be removed from service after

10 years from the date of manufacture, regardless of their condition or state of

wear.

Winter Tires

If driving on snowy or frozen roads, mount all season tires marked “M+S”, snow

tires, or tire chains; reduce speed; and maintain sufcient distance between

vehicles when driving. For winter tires, select the size and load ranges that are the

same as the original tires, and mount them to all four wheels.

Tire Chains

Install tire chains on the front tires only. Because your vehicle has limited tire

clearance, we strongly recommend using the following chains:

Models with 215/70R16 tires:

Cable type: SCC Radial Chain SC1042

Models with 225/65R17 or P225/60R18 99H tires:

Cable type: SCC Radial Chain TC2111MM

Mount chains as tightly as you can, and make sure that they do not touch the

brake lines or suspension.

Traction devices that are the wrong size or improperly installed can damage your

vehicle’s brake lines, suspension, body, and wheels. Stop driving if they are hitting

any part of the vehicle.

NOTICE

Using the wrong chains, or not properly installing chains, can damage the

brake lines and cause a crash in which you can be seriously injured or killed.

Follow all instructions in this guide regarding the selection and use of tire

chains.

WARNING

Tire Labeling

The tires that came on your vehicle have a number of markings. Those you

should be aware of are described below.

Tire Identification Number (TIN)

The tire identication number

(TIN) is a group of numbers

and letters that look like the

example below. TIN is located

on the sidewall of the tire.

Glossary of Tire Terminology

Cold Tire Pressure – The tire air pressure when the vehicle has been

parked for at least three hours or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km).

Load Rating – The maximum load that a tire is rated to carry for a given

inﬂation pressure.

Maximum Ination Pressure – The maximum tire air pressure that the tire

can hold.

Maximum Load Rating – The load rating for a tire at the maximum

permissible ination pressure for that tire.

Recommended Ination Pressure – The cold tire ination pressure

recommended by the manufacturer.

Treadwear Indicators (TWI) – The projections within the principal grooves

designed to give a visual indication of the degrees of wear of the tread.

Here is an example of what each marking

means:

215/70R16 100S

• 215: tire width in millimeters

• 70: aspect ratio (tire section height as a

percentage of its width)

• R: tire construction code (radial)

• 16: rim diameter in inches

• 100: load index (code indicating

maximum load tire can carry)

• S: speed symbol (code indicating

maximum speed rating)
