wheel size CHRYSLER PACIFICA 2020 Vehicle Warranty

When rotating tires with a directional tread pattern, observe the arrows
molded on the sidewall which show the direction the tire should turn.
Care must be taken to maintain the proper turning direction.
Some Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS) may not recognize
that a tire has been moved to a different position on your vehicle. Make
certain that your TPMS system is reset, if necessary, so as to correctly
identify the location of each tire on your vehicle. Refer to your vehicle
owner ’s manual or your vehicle dealer.
Determine whether rotated tires require tire inflation adjustment as front
and rear position tire pressure may vary according to the vehicle
manufacturer ’s specification due to the actual load on that wheel
position. Some vehicles may have different sized tires mounted on the
front and rear axles, and these different sized tires have rotation
restrictions. Always check the vehicle owner ’s manual for the proper
rotation recommendations.
Full-size Spare
Full-size spare tires (not temporary spares) of the same size and construc-
tion should be used in a five (5) tire rotation. Always check the inflation
pressure of the full-size spare immediately before incorporating it into
rotation. Follow the vehicle manufacturer ’s recommended pattern for
rotation, or if not available, see a qualified tire technician.
Replacement of Two (2) Tires
It is recommended that all four (4) tires are replaced at the same time.
However, when only two tires are replaced, the new tires should be put
on the rear. The new tires, with deeper tread, may provide better grip and
water evacuation in wet driving conditions.
CUSTOMIZATION OF TIRES, WHEELS, OR SUSPENSION ON
SUVS AND LIGHT TRUCKS
Due to their size, weight and higher center of gravity, vehicles such as
SUVs and light trucks do not have the same handling characteristics as
automobiles. Because of these differing characteristics, failure to operate
your SUV/truck in a proper and safe manner can increase the likelihood
of vehicle rollover. Modifications to your SUV/truck tire size, tire type,
wheels or suspension can change its handling characteristics and further
increase the likelihood of vehicle rollover. Whether your SUV/truck has
the original equipment configuration for tires, wheels and suspension or
whether any of these items have been modified, always drive safely,
MICHELIN178

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). 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
MICHELIN
180

sidewall of the tire. DO NOT MOUNT ZP TIRES WITH THE SH-M
DESIGNATION ON STANDARD WHEELS. IN SUCH APPLICATIONS,
THE TIRES MAY BECOME UNSERVICEABLE AT LOW OR ZERO
PRESSURE, CAUSING SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
SPECIAL MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR MICHELIN® TRX™
TIRES
The MICHELIN® TRX™ tire is a tubeless tire that must only be mounted
on special wheels (TR or JM type) with millimetric seat diameter. If TRX
tires are mounted on standard wheels, they will not retain air due to an
air escape feature designed into the bead area of these tires.
Do not try to override this feature by mounting TRX tires with tubes.
The MICHELIN® TRX tire must be used on all wheel positions.
TEMPORARY TYPE SPARE TIRES
When using any temporary type spare tire, be sure to follow the vehicle
manufacturer ’s instructions.
READING THE DOT
DOT XXXX XXXX XXX (prior to August 2000)
DOT XXXX XXXX XXX (1990-1999)
DOT XXXX XXXX XXXX (after July 2000)
THE DOT
The “DOT” symbol certifies tire manufacturer ’s compliance with U.S.
Department of Transportation tire safety standards. Next to the symbol is
the tire identification or “serial number”. The first two characters identify
the plant where the tire was manufactured. The next two characters
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.) For
the 1990-1999 decade MICHELIN® brand tires are marked with a triangle
pointing to the last three numeric characters. 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
contains three numeric characters and is not marked with a triangle,
consult a qualified tire technician to determine the year of manufacture.

8. Tire Replacement
The tires fitted to your vehicle as original equipment were tested and
approved by the vehicle manufacturer and the tire manufacturer and take
into account all aspects of the vehicle’s operation. Changes in the tire size,
type or construction should not be made without seeking advice from the
vehicle or tire manufacturer or an authorized Pirelli dealer since unap-
proved tires on your vehicle could adversely affect steering, handling,
braking and traction. The tire information (tire size, load index and speed
symbol) as found on the vehicle placard or in the owner ’s manual should
always be followed when replacing tires.
It is strongly recommended that Pirelli tires be mounted in sets of four
with the same tread type. Pirelli tires should not be mixed with other tire
brands. It is necessary to follow this procedure because different tire
constructions have different handling characteristics. Tires on the same
axle must be the same manufacturer, brand, tire size, load index, speed
rating and Pirelli part number.
When changing only two tires on a vehicle which is homogeneously
fitted (four tires of the same tire size), fit the new tires on the rear axle.
This applies to all vehicles regardless of their drive axle. (Front or Rear
Drive).
On all wheel drive or four wheel drive vehicles the tires must always be
replaced in sets of four.
When replacing tires on light truck vehicles, you should always follow
the vehicle manufacturer ’s recommendations. Passenger and light truck
tires are not interchangeable, due to differences in their pressures and
load carrying capacity.
P-Metric and Euro-metric Interchangeability: Euro-metric (Example: 225/
45R17) tires have a load index which is equal to or greater than that of the
same size P-metric (Example: P225/45R17) tire. Therefore, they have the
same or higher load carrying capacity at the maximum rated inflation
pressure. Always check with your tire dealer or Pirelli Tire Consumer
Affairs to be sure of the exact interchangeability to maintain proper
vehicle dynamics.
Please be aware that it is important that, before fitting the suggested tires,
the fitment is allowed by the technical specifications of the vehicle, the
vehicle manufacturer and the relevant homologations. Pirelli Tire does
not express any view as to the compatibility of the wheel/tire combina-
tion with the technical specifications for the chassis and vehicle.

WHAT IS NOT COVERED?
This Limited Warranty does not cover the following categories of claims:
Rapid Treadwear: Original equipment tires are not guaranteed to last a
specified number of miles.
Damage from road hazards (not limited to cuts, snags, bruises, impact
breaks, bulges, punctures, stone drills, chips, and scales), fire, theft, or
collision.
Conditions arising from improper tire/vehicle maintenance or use, not
limited to:
•Irregular or excessive treadwear due to: Incorrect inflation; overload-
ing; vehicle misalignment; failure to rotate tires; and poor or defective
mechanical condition of brakes, shocks, and wheels; or other factors
attributable to the vehicle or wheel.
• Any tire which has been run with low air pressure or while flat.
• Damage due to abuse; vandalism; tire alteration; tire spinning; racing;
or other competitive activities.
• Damage, corrosion, or deterioration from using oil-based chemicals,
water-based sealers, balancing substances, or flammable gases.
• Damage from improper use of tire chains.
Tires with the DOT identification number removed or rendered illegible.
Improper mounting, balancing or repair, not limited to:
• Improper tire mounting, or tire/wheel assembly imbalance.
• Damage from incorrect mounting or dismounting of the tire, incorrect
wheel size, water or other material trapped inside the tire during
mounting, or failure to keep the tires balanced.
• Damage resulting from improper repair materials or procedures.

WARNING!
•Failure to install tires with adequate load capacity will result in tire
fatigue and sudden tire failure. This could lead to loss of vehicle
control, possibly resulting in personal injury or death.
• Certain vehicle performance parameters, including ride comfort
and handling, may be affected by substitute tire sizes. In some
cases, particularly for SUVs and light trucks, a failure to follow the
vehicle manufacturer ’s recommendations for tire replacement
could adversely affect the safe handling of the vehicle, possibly
resulting in a loss of vehicle control leading to personal injury or
death.
The following procedures concerning replacement tires must be fol-
lowed:
• Confirm that the load-carrying capacity is greater than or equal to the
loadcarrying capacity of the OE tire size at the pressure indicated on
the vehicle Tire Information Placard.
• Carefully note any differences between recommendations for front and
rear axle positions regarding the tire size and/ or inflation pressure.
• The speed rating must be equal to or greater than what is specified by
the vehicle manufacturer if the speed capability of the vehicle is to be
maintained.
• Tires should be mounted on approved wheel widths. If changing tire
sizes, check to make sure the wheel has adequate load and inflation
pressure capacity.
• Body and chassis clearance must be checked on the vehicle’s front and
rear axles.
In addition to the above, light truck tire replacements should take into
consideration the following:
• Proper spacing between dual tires is necessary for optimum tire
performance. If chains are used, particular care must be taken to assure
adequate clearance between loaded tires to avoid damage from the
chains. The allowable outside diameter difference between a tire and
its dual mate is 1/4” (6.4 mm) for light truck tires.

CONSIDERATIONS IN PLUS SIZING
Always refer to and follow the vehicle manufacturer ’s replacement tire
recommendations. In some cases, a vehicle manufacturer may specifically
advise against the application of replacement tires that are not of the
original size or type.
TIRE AND WHEEL MATCHING AND MOUNTING
WARNING!
Any attempt to mount a tire on a wheel with a different diameter
will result in an explosion of the tire/wheel assembly that could
cause severe personal injury or death.
Prior to mounting any tire, always check the wheel identification
stamp to verify the correct wheel diameter. Always check the tire
size molded onto the sidewall.
Never exceed 40 psi when seating the tire beads onto the wheel.
Always stand well clear of any tire mounting operation. This is
especially important when the service operator inflates the tire. If
the tire has been improperly mounted, it could burst with explosive
force causing serious personal injury or death.
A new valve stem must be installed on the wheel each time a worn
out passenger or light truck tire is replaced.
Removing and replacing tires on wheels can be dangerous.
Attempting to mount tires with improper tools or procedures could
result in a tire explosion, causing serious personal injury or death.
This is a job for your authorized Toyo Tires dealer or other qualified
tire service location only.
Serious personal injury or death can result from:
•Failure to select the proper tire and wheel. The tire must match the
width and diameter requirements of the wheel. When mounting
truck type radial tires use only wheels approved for radial tires.
• Failure to inspect both the tire and wheel. The wheel must be free
of cracks, dents, chips, and rust. The tire must be free of bead
damage, cuts, and punctures.
• Failure
to
follow
proper
procedures.
