TIRE LABELING
Federal law requires tire manufacturers to
place standardized information on the side-
wall of all tires. This information identifies
and describes the fundamental character-
istics of the tire and also provides the tire
identification number (TIN) for safety stan-
dard certification. The TIN can be used to
identify the tire in case of a recall.
Example
*1Tire size (example: P215/60R16 94H)
1.
P: The ªPº indicates the tire is designed
for passenger vehicles. (Not all tires
have this information.)
2.Three-digit number (215): This number
gives the width in millimeters of the tire
from sidewall edge to sidewall edge.
3.Two-digit number (65): This number,
known as the aspect ratio, gives the
tire's ratio of height to width.
4.R: The ªRº stands for radial.
F: The ªFº after ªRº indicates Self-
Supporting type run-flat tire.
5.Two-digit number (15): This number is
the wheel or rim diameter in inches.
6.Two- or three-digit number (95): This
number is the tire's load index. It is a
measurement of how much weight each
tire can support. You may not find this
information on all tires because it is not
required by law.
7.H: Tire speed rating. You should not
drive the vehicle faster than the tire
speed rating.

Do not tow a trailer with your vehicle.Towing your vehicle with all four wheels on the
ground is sometimes called flat towing. This
method is sometimes used when towing a
vehicle behind a recreational vehicle, such as a
motor home.
DO NOT tow the GT-R with all four wheels on
the ground (flat towing) . Doing so WILL
DAMAGE internal transmission parts. Tow the
GT-R with all four wheels off the ground.

DOT (Department Of Transportation) Quality
Grades: All passenger car tires must conform to
federal safety requirements in addition to these
grades.
Quality grades can be found where applicable
on the tire sidewall between tread shoulder and
maximum section width. For example:
Treadwear 200 Traction AA Temperature A
TREADWEAR
The treadwear grade is a comparative rating
based on the wear rate of the tire when tested
under controlled conditions on a specified
government test course. For example, a tire
graded 150 would wear one and one-half (1
1/2) times as well on the government course as
a tire graded 100. The relative performance of
tires depends upon actual conditions of their
use, however, and may depart significantly from
the norm due to variations in driving habits,
service practices and differences in road char-
acteristics and climate.
