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,

5. DOT Street Legal Competition Tires
P Zero Trofeo and P Zero Corsa tire lines use special tire construction and
compounds to achieve their distinctive performance in dry conditions. As
a result of that, their performance in cold temperatures, heavy rain or
standing water will be decreased. Use extreme caution and drive slowly
on wet roads.
The minimum tread depth will be reached earlier than normal road tires,
resulting in reduced tread life.
6. Winter Tires
The standard Pirelli tires may be effective in light snow conditions.
However, for winter use, you may wish to install winter tires. During
winter use, Pirelli strongly recommends the fitment of 4 winter tires.
Please check your vehicle owner ’s manual concerning winter tire size
recommendation. If the winter tires have a lower speed rating than the
original equipment tires, vehicle handling may be affected, and the
vehicle maximum speed must be reduced to the winter tire speed rating.
Pirelli requires that studded tires be installed on all four positions.
Installing studded tires only on the drive positions of any vehicle,
including a front wheel drive vehicle, may cause adverse handling
characteristics.
7. Run Flat Tires
Always refer to the vehicle owners’ manual with respect to specific safety
and operating information relating to the vehicle. Damaged Run Flat tires
or Run Flat tires that have experienced a loss of pressure should
immediately be replaced with another Run Flat tire of identical size and
Service Description (Load Index and Speed Symbol).
Run Flat tires have been developed based on the specifications of the
vehicles on which they are mounted. Accordingly, Run Flat tires should
only be mounted on vehicles specifically manufactured to accommodate
Run Flat tires.
Run Flat tires must be mounted in conjunction with a functional Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).
The mounting of tires and installation of the Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS) should be carried out by a specialized dealer.

VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEMS (TPMS)
Even if your vehicle is equipped with a tire pressure
monitoring system, you should check your tire pres-
sure at least once per month when the tires are cold
(for example, after being parked overnight). Tire pres-
sure warning systems are not a substitute for regular
tire pressure maintenance.
WARNING!
If your vehicle is equipped with TPMS, read the vehicle Owner ’s
Manual regarding its operation. Some TPMS systems do not alert you
until the tires are significantly underinflated, which could result in
permanent tire damage and possible sudden tire failure. In the event
that your TPMS malfunction indicator lamp is displayed, you should
immediately pull over to a safe parking area and check your tires.
IDENTIFYING DAMAGED TIRES
•If your tire strikes a road hazard at any speed, internal tire damage
could result, which may lead to sudden tire failure and loss of vehicle
control. Tire failure may even occur miles after the initial impact.
Impact damage from such hazards may not be visible on the outside of
the tire. Have your Toyo Tires dealer dismount the tire and inspect it
for damage. A tire may not have visible signs of damage on the tire
surface or the interior.
•If the impact was sufficient to bend the wheel flange, internal tire
damage may have occurred, compromising the safety and integrity of
the tire. Such impact damage may result in a sudden tire failure many
weeks or months later. Tire replacement is highly recommended as a
safety precaution.
•Indications of impact damage include, but are not limited to, a bubble
or a blister on the outside of the tire.
•
Have your dealer inspect your tires if you see anything unusual or if cuts,
cracks, splitting, or bruises in the tread and sidewall areas are visible.
Bumps or bulges may indicate a serious and dangerous separation
within the tire body. Have your tire inspected by a qualified tire service
person. It may be necessary to have the tire removed from the wheel for
a complete inspection.
