reflect the tire size. The following one to four digits may be used at the
tire manufacturer ’s option as a descriptive code. The last three characters
are numbers identifying the week and year of manufacture. (Example:
“O25” means second week of the year of decade, eg.: 1995, 1985, etc.)
Tires produced after July 2000 have an additional digit to identify a given
decade. For example, 2800 means the tire was produced during the 28th
week of 2000; 0201 during the 2nd week of 2001. If the last digits of your
DOT number contain three numeric characters consult a qualified tire
technician to determine the year and decade of manufacture.
STORAGE
Tires contain waxes and emollients to protect their outer surfaces from
ozone and weather checking. As the tire rolls and flexes, the waxes and
emollients continually migrate to the surface, replenishing this protection
throughout the normal use of the tire. Consequently, when tires sit
outdoors, unused for long periods of time (a month or more) their
surfaces become dry and more susceptible to ozone and weather check-
ing and the casing becomes susceptible to flat spotting.
For this reason, tires should always be stored in a cool, dry, clean,
indoor environment. If storage is for one month or more, eliminate the
weight from the tires by raising the vehicle or by removing the tires
from the vehicle. Failure to store tires in accordance with these
instructions could result in damage to your tires or premature aging of
the tires and sudden tire failure.
When tires are stored, be sure they are placed away from sources of heat
and ozone such as hot pipes and electric generators. Be sure that surfaces
on which tires are stored are clean and free from grease, gasoline or other
substances which could deteriorate the rubber.(Tires exposed to these
materials during storage or driving could be subject to sudden failure.)
FOLLOW THESE MOUNTING RECOMMENDATIONS
Tire changing can be dangerous and must be done by professionally
trained persons using proper tools and procedures as specified by the
Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA).
Your tires should be mounted on wheels of correct size and type and
which are in good, clean condition. Wheels that are bent, chipped, rusted
(steel wheels) or corroded (alloy wheels) may cause tire damage. The
inside of the tire must be free from foreign material. Have your retailer
check the wheels before mounting new tires. Mismatched tires and rims

YOUR SPARE TIRE
Consult your vehicle owner ’s manual for proper application of your
spare tire. Your car may be equipped with a “temporary use” spare tire;
this spare may differ in size and construction from the other tires on your
vehicle.
WARNING!
Check inflation pressure before use. Failure to have proper inflation
pressure when using your spare tire can result in serious personal
injury or death. See Tire Inflation Pressure in this manual.
WARNING!
Mounting a “temporary use” tire on a wheel which is not
specifically designed for it, or placing another type tire on a wheel
designated for temporary use can be dangerous. Your vehicle’s
handling characteristics can be seriously affected. You could have an
accident resulting in serious personal injury or death. Consult your
vehicle owner ’s manual for proper application of your “temporary
use” spare tire.
The spare tire in your vehicle is intended to be used as a spare when
needed. The spare tire carrier is not intended to be used for long term
storage, except for “temporary use” tires. If your spare is the same size,
load rating, and type of tire as your road tires, it should be included in the
tire rotation process; see “Radial Tire Rotation” in this manual for more
information.
The spare should be included in regular tire inspections and inflation
pressure checks. In addition, it should be replaced 10 years after date of
manufacture, regardless of condition or tread depth. For more informa-
tion, see the “Tire Damage, Inspection and Service Life” in this manual.
TIRE STORAGE
Tires should be stored indoors in a cool, dry place where water cannot
collect inside them. Tires should be placed away from electric
generators/motors and sources of heat such as hot pipes. Storage
surfaces should be clean and free of grease, gasoline or other substances
which can deteriorate the rubber.

FOLLOW THESE MOUNTING RECOMMENDATIONS
Tire changing can be dangerous and must be done by professionally
trained persons using proper tools and procedures as specified by the
Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA). PAX® System tires must be
mounted and dismounted only by specially trained, authorized PAX
System retailers, utilizing PAX System authorized equipment.
Your tires should be mounted on wheels of correct size and type and
which are in good, clean condition. Wheels that are bent, chipped, rusted
(steel wheels) or corroded (alloy wheels) may cause tire damage. The
inside of the tire must be free from foreign material. Have your retailer
check the wheels before mounting new tires. Mismatched tires and rims
can explode during mounting. Also, mismatched tires and rims can result
in dangerous tire failure on the road. If a tire is mounted by error on the
wrong-sized rim, do not remount it on the proper rim scrap it. It may
have been damaged internally (which is not externally visible) by having
been dangerously stretched and could fail on the highway.
Old valves may leak. When new tubeless tires are mounted, have new
valves of the correct type installed. Tubeless tires must only be
mounted on wheels designed for tubeless tires i.e., wheels which have

WARNING!
Continued operation of your vehicle with excessively worn tires
may lead to loss of vehicle control in adverse weather conditions,
tire failure, and serious personal injury or death.
Any retail tire dealer will be glad to measure your tire’s tread depth for you.
Toyo Tires recommends that tires be replaced in matched sets of four.
TIRE REPAIRS
If any tire has sustained a puncture, have the tire dismounted and
inspected internally by an authorized Toyo Tires dealer for possible
damage that may have occurred. Only specially trained personnel using
the proper tools and procedures should repair tires.
WARNING!
•Before having your tire repaired, tell your authorized Toyo Tires
dealer if you have used an aerosol puncture sealant to inflate/ seal
the tire. Aerosol puncture sealants could contain a highly flam-
mable, explosive gas.
• Driving on an improperly repaired tire is dangerous. An improper
repair can cause further damage to the tire. It could fail suddenly,
which can result in loss of vehicle control and lead to serious
personal injury or death. To insure safety, go to your authorized
Toyo Tires dealer for professional inspection and proper tire
repairs.
• Cosmetic Tire Alterations Can Be Dangerous! Remember — Do not
perform or allow anyone to perform any alterations to your tires.
Alterations may prevent proper performance, leading to tire dam-
age, which could result in sudden tire failure and loss of vehicle
control and lead to serious personal injury or death.
• Never repair a tire with 2/32” (1.6 mm) or less tread remaining. At this
tread depth, the tire is worn out and must be replaced.
• Never repair a tire with a puncture larger than 1/4” (6.4 mm) in
diameter. Such tires cannot be properly repaired and must be replaced.
• Repairs of all tires (radial and non-radial) must be of the plug and
inside patch type. Using plugs alone on any type of tire is not a safe
repair.

WARNING!
•Check inflation pressure before using your spare tire. Failure to
have proper inflation pressure when using your spare tire may
cause loss of vehicle control, which could result in serious personal
injury or death. Maintain spare tire inflation pressures based on
the vehicle Owner ’s Manual or the Tire Information Placard.
•
“T” Type high-pressure temporary spare tires should not be used
with any other wheel, nor should standard tires, snow tires, wheel
covers, or trim rings be used on the high-pressure spare tire wheel. If
you fail to follow this warning, your vehicle’s handling characteris-
tics can be seriously affected. You could have an accident resulting in
serious personal injury or death. Consult your vehicle Owner ’s
Manual for the proper use of your “temporary use” spare tire.
•Do not operate your vehicle with more than one temporary spare in
use (this does not apply to a full size spare), and only operate it at
limited speeds and distances as indicated on the sidewall of the tire.
• The “T” Type temporary spare tire may lower ground clearance
when used. Avoid driving over large obstacles and other road
hazards. Check your vehicle Owner ’s Manual for other special
clearance precautions when using the “T” Type temporary spare
tire provided in your vehicle.
TIRE STORAGE
Tires should be stored indoors in a cool dry place where water cannot
collect inside the tires. The tires should be placed away from harmful
ozone-producing electric generators and motors and sources of heat such
as hot pipes. Storage surfaces should be clean and free of grease, gasoline,
or other substances, which can deteriorate the rubber.
COMPETITION TIRE STORAGE
The rubber compounds used in these tires have unique properties that,
when compared to other tires, can cause them to lose some of their
flexibility when used or handled in conditions below 15° F (-9° C). This
loss in flexibility can lead to potential cracking and other damage to the
tire. To minimize the chances of this happening, you are advised to follow
these instructions:
1. Do not move or operate the car with these tires in conditions below 15°
F (-9° C).
