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
th

e 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
oz
one 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
checking and the casing becomes susceptible to flat spotting.
For this reason, tires should always be stored in a cool, dry, clean,
in
door 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
he
at 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
tr
ained 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
wh
ich 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

YOUR SPARE TIRE
Consult your vehicle Owner’s Manual for proper application of your
sp
are 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.
The spare tire in your vehicle is intended to be used as a spare when
n e

eded. 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
pr
essure checks. In addition, it should be replaced 10 years after date
of manufacture, regardless of condition or tread depth. For more
information, 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
co
llect 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.
WARNING!
Check inflation pressure before use. Failure to have proper
in
flation 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
sp
ecifically 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.

FOLLOW THESE MOUNTING RECOMMENDATIONS
Tire changing can be dangerous and must be done by professionally
tr
ained 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
wh
ich 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
ne
w valves of the correct type installed. Tubeless tires must only be
mounted on wheels designed for tubeless tires i.e., wheels which
have safety humps or ledges. As with any other tire air valve, the
PAX® System valve stem-pressure sensor combination must be in

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
in
spected 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.
• N ever repair a tire with 2/32” (1.6
mm) or less tread remaining. At
th
is 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 diam-
eter. Such tires cannot be properly repaired and must be replaced.

• Repairs of all tires (radial and non-radial) must be of the plug and
i
nside patch type. Using plugs alone on any type of tire is not a safe
repair.
WARNING!
Continued operation of your vehicle with excessively worn tires
ma
y lead to loss of vehicle control in adverse weather conditions,
tire failure, and serious personal injury or death.
WARNING!
• Before having your tire repaired, tell your authorized Toyo Tires
d
ealer if you have used an aerosol puncture sealant to inflate/
seal the tire. Aerosol puncture sealants could contain a highly
flammable, explosive gas.
• Driving on an improperly repaired tire is dangerous. An
i
mproper 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
n
ot perform or allow anyone to perform any alterations to your
tires. Alterations may prevent proper performance, leading to
tire damage, which could result in sudden tire failure and loss of
vehicle control and lead to serious personal injury or death.
