If your vehicle has Goodyear Eagle F1-GS1
P245/45R18 size tires, they are directional tires
and must roll in a certain direction for the
best overall performance. The direction is shown
by an arrow on the tire sidewall. Because these
tires are directional, they should be rotated as
shown here. These tires should only be moved
from front to rear and rear to front on the same
side of the vehicle.After the tires have been rotated, adjust the
front and rear ination pressures as shown
on the Tire and Loading Information label.
SeeInflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-56
andLoading Your Vehicle on page 4-23.
Reset the Tire Pressure monitor System.
SeeTire Pressure Monitor Operation on page 5-59.
Make certain that all wheel nuts are properly
tightened. See “Wheel Nut Torque” under
Capacities and Specifications on page 5-99.
{CAUTION:
Rust or dirt on a wheel, or on the parts to
which it is fastened, can make wheel nuts
become loose after a time. The wheel
could come off and cause a crash. When
you change a wheel, remove any rust or
dirt from places where the wheel attaches
to the vehicle. In an emergency, you can
use a cloth or a paper towel to do this;
but be sure to use a scraper or wire brush
later, if you need to, to get all the rust or
dirt off.Directional Tires
