TIRE MIXING
• Toyo Tires® recommends that all four tires be of the same size, speed rating, and construction (radial or non-radial). In some cases the vehicle manufacturer may
require different sized tires for the front or rear axles. Never mix P-metric or European
Metric passenger tires with LT-metric tires on the same vehicle.
• M atch tire size designations in pairs on an axle, except during the temporary use of a
s
pare tire.
• I f two radial tires and two non-radial tires are used on a vehicle, put the radials on the
r
ear axle. If radial and non-radial tires are used on a vehicle equipped with dual rear
tires, the radial tires may be used on either axle.
SPEED-RATED TIRE
• If the vehicle Tire Information Placard and/or the vehicle Owner’s Manual specifies speed-rated tires, the replacement tires must have the same or higher speed rating to
maintain vehicle speed capability.
• I f a replacement tire has a lower speed capability than that specified by the vehicle
m
anufacturer, the vehicle’s speed must be restricted to that of the replacement tire.
Vehicle handling could also be affected. Consult the vehicle Owner’s Manual or tire
manufacturer for recommendations.
• I f tires with different speed ratings are used, it is recommended that the lower speed-
r
ated tires always be placed on the front axle. This is to prevent a potential oversteer
condition.
• E
xceeding the maximum bead seating pressure of 40 psi. Be absolutely certain
b
eads are fully seated before adjusting the inflation pressure to the level recom -
mended for vehicle operation.
Never put flammable substances in the tire/wheel assemblies at any time. Never put
a n
y flammable substance into a tire/wheel assembly and attempt to ignite it in order
to seat the beads.
CAUTION!
Driving your vehicle with an improper mix of tire sizes, constructions, and speed
ratings can be dangerous. Your car’s handling characteristics can be adversely
affected. You could have an accident resulting in serious personal injury or death.
Consult your vehicle Owner’s Manual or an authorized Toyo Tires® dealer for proper
tire replacement.
WARNING!

REPLACING TWO TIRES
• When a pair of replacement tires is selected in the same size and construction as those on the vehicle, the two newer tires must be installed on the rear axle and must
be of equal or higher speed rating than the front tires. Generally, new tires with deeper
tread will provide better grip and evacuate water more effectively, which is important
as a driver approaches hydroplaning situations. Placing greater traction on the rear
axle on wet surfaces is necessary to prevent a possible oversteer condition and loss
of vehicle stability.
• W hen two new tires have been installed onto the rear axle positions, they are to be
k
ept on the rear but rotated from side to side. This is recommended after installing two
new tires to the rear position, or if you discover significant tread depth differences
between the front and rear positions during rotation intervals.
REPLACING ONE TIRE
• Replacing a single tire on a vehicle can have an adverse effect on suspension systems, gear ratios, transmission, and tire treadwear.
• I f single tire replacement is unavoidable, it is recommended that the single new tire
b
e paired with the tire that has the deepest tread and both be placed on the rear axle.
Placing greater traction on the rear axle on wet surfaces is necessary to prevent a
possible oversteer condition and loss of vehicle stability.
WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCING
• Proper wheel alignment and balance are very important considerations for safety and getting the maximum mileage from your tires. You need to check how your tires are
wearing at least once a month.
• Y our vehicle may be out of alignment if your tires are wearing unevenly, such as when
t
he inside shoulder of the tire is wearing faster than the rest of the tread. This condi -
tion not only shortens the life of your tires, it adversely affects the handling character -
istics of your vehicle, which could be dangerous. If your tires show irregular wear, have
y o
ur vehicle’s alignment checked immediately.
CAUTION!
In some cases, the vehicle manufacturer may specifically advise against replacing
fewer than all four tires. Always check and follow the recommendations in the vehicle
Owner’s Manual. For 4WD and AWD vehicles, even small differences in outside
diameter may cause drivetrain damage or mechanical malfunction.

ADVERSE WEATHER DRIVING
Take special care when driving in adverse weather conditions.
• R ain and snow – Driving in rain or snow considerably reduces the traction between
y
our tires and the road surface. You must always reduce your speed to allow additional
stopping distance between you and the vehicles ahead of you.
• H ydroplaning and wet weather driving – Hydroplaning occurs on wet roads and refers
t
o the loss of tire contact with the road due to the build-up of water between the tire
contact patch and the road surface. Three main factors affect hydroplaning and,
consequently, your tire traction on wet roads:
1. V ehicle Speed – As speed increases, wet traction is considerably reduced.
2
. W ater Depth – The deeper the water, the sooner your tires will lose traction. Even thin
w
ater layers can create sufficient lubrication to cause traction loss at low speeds,
depending on road conditions.
3. T ire Tread Depth – As your tires wear down, their decreased ability to resist hydro -
p
laning can result in a complete loss of traction and vehicle control. You should
a l
ways reduce your speed with consideration for the traffic around you.
Driving on ice and snow – Your all-season tires were designed to provide higher
levels of snow traction compared to non-all- season tires. You have all-season
tires if you find the letters “M&S” are molded into the sidewall near the bead.
These letters mean “Mud and Snow.” Tires designed for use in severe snow con -
ditions generally have tread patterns, structure, and materials for giving superior
p e
rformance. These tires are marked with the “M&S” designation plus a moun -
tain/snowflake symbol . Even the best all-season tires will not provide accept -
able levels of traction if you drive too fast in snow or ice conditions and if you do
n o
t allow more stopping distance on icy roads compared to dry road surfaces.
Your ability to safely maneuver your vehicle in snow or ice conditions is consid -
erably reduced if your tires are too worn to provide adequate road grip.
SAFE USE OF TEMPORARY SPARE TIRES
• The temporary spare tire is designed for temporary use only. It must not be used
continuously as a standard tire. The temporary spare tire should be returned to the
trunk as soon as it is convenient to have your standard tire repaired or replaced.
• T he temporary spare tire should not be used for speeds exceeding 50
mph.
• N ever use chains on temporary spare tires, because it could cause damage to your
v
ehicle.
WARNING!
The spare tire your car is equipped with may be of a different size and construction
from the other tires on your vehicle. When using any temporary type spare tire, be sure
to follow the vehicle manufacturer’s instructions. Failure to observe recommended
precautions could lead to erratic vehicle behavior and/or tire damage, possibly
resulting in an accident and serious personal injury or death.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
All tires require owner maintenance regardless of how well a tire is constructed.
Operational damages such as punctures, impact damage, cuts, incorrect inflation, etc.,
may cause tire failure and subsequent personal injury and/or property damage. Simple
operational and maintenance practices, as listed below, will reduce the chances of tire
problems.
Tire Inspection
Visually inspect your tires frequently for any tire damage such as scrapes, bulges, cuts,
nails, irregular wear, etc. resulting from operation. This must be done immediately after
any known or suspected contact with an object in the road, a pothole, road irregularity or
after severe braking. Refer these conditions to a reputable tire service center for repair
or replacement. Never drive on a tire if such conditions appear.
Tire Loading
Never exceed the maximum vehicle load limit listed on the vehicle placard, tire
information label or in the Owner’s Manual. Be aware of the load carrying limits molded
into the tire’s sidewall and do not exceed those limits. Maximum load can only be carried
at the maximum cold inflation pressure indicated on the tire’s sidewall.
Speed Limits
Regardless of the speed capability of your tires, never exceed lawful speeds or speeds
dictated by driving conditions.
Hazards
Objects in the road that could damage your tires should be safely avoided. These objects
include: potholes, glass, metal, rocks, wood debris and the like. Unavoidable contact
should prompt a thorough tire inspection.
Air Pressure
Air pressure maintenance is critical to tire service life. Tire pressures must be checked
frequently when tires are cold (before operation, cool to the touch) and no less than once
