BFGOODRICH® TIRES
ABOUT THIS WARRANTY
As the original purchaser of a BFGoodrich® brand passenger or light truck tire, you are
covered by all the benefits and conditions (subject to the maintenance
recommendations and safety warnings) contained in this booklet. To ensure your
understanding of and compliance with the terms and conditions of this warranty, please
read it carefully. It is essential that you also read and understand the safety and
maintenance recommendations for tires contained in this booklet.
WHAT IS COVERED AND FOR HOW LONG
Passenger and Light Truck Tires
BFGoodrich® brand passenger and light truck tires, used in normal service on the
veh

icle on which they were originally fitted and in accordance with the maintenance
recommendations and safety warnings contained in the attached Owner’s Manual, are
covered by this warranty against defects in workmanship and materials for the life of the
original usable tread, or six years from the date of purchase, whichever occurs first. At
that time, all warranties, express or implied, expire. The life of the original usable tread
is the original tread down to the level of the tread wear indicators - 2/32nds of an inch
(1.6 mm) of tread remaining. Date of purchase is documented by new vehicle
reg

istration or tire sales invoice. If no proof of purchase is available, coverage will be
based on the date of manufacture. Replacement will be made in accordance with the
terms and conditions described under “How Replacement Charges are Calculated”.
NOTE:
Your vehicle manufacturer may provide additional tire warranty coverage over and above
wh a

t is provided by BFGoodrich®. Consult your vehicle Owner’s Manual for further infor -
mation.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED
Tires Which Become Unserviceable Due To:
• Road hazard injury (e.g., a cut, snag, bruise, impact damage or puncture)
• In

correct mounting of the tire, tire/wheel imbalance or improper repair
• Mi

sapplication, improper maintenance, racing, underinflation, overinflation or other
a b

use
• Operation without a properly functioning low pressure warning system, for Comp T/A® ZR

SSS tires
• Uneven or rapid wear which is caused by mechanical irregularity in the vehicle such as wh

eel misalignment, a measured tread difference of 2/32 of an inch (1.6 mm) or
mo r

e across the tread on the same tire
• Accident, fire, chemical corrosion, tire alteration or vandalism
• Fl

at spotting caused by improper storage or brake lock

REMEMBER — High speed driving can be dangerous and may damage your tires. AND —
When driving at highway speeds, correct inflation pressure is especially important.
INSPECT YOUR TIRES, DO NOT DRIVE ON A DAMAGED TIRE OR WHEEL
HAZARDS
Objects in the road, such as potholes, glass, metal, rocks, wood, debris and the like, can
d a

mage a tire and should be safely avoided. Unavoidable contact with such objects
should prompt a thorough tire inspection.
Anytime you see any damage to your tires or wheels, replace with the spare at once and
i m

mediately visit any BFGoodrich® tire retailer.
IMPACT DAMAGE
A tire impacted by a road hazard (curb, pothole, debris) may be damaged but not have
visible signs of damage on its surface. A tire damaged by an impact may sustain a
sudden failure a day, week, or even months later. You may not recall hitting an object that
damaged or injured your tires. Air loss, unusual tire wear, localized wear or vibrations can
also be signs of internal tire damage.
If you suspect any damage to your tire or wheel from an impact with a curb, pothole,
de
bris on the road or any other road hazard, or if you feel or hear any unusual vibration,
replace with a properly inflated spare at once and immediately visit any qualified tire
technician.
INSPECTION
When inspecting your tires, including the spare, check the air pressures. If the pressure
c h

eck indicates that one of your tires has lost pressure of two pounds or more, look for
signs of penetration, valve leakage or wheel damage that may account for the air loss.
Always look for bulges, cracks, cuts, penetrations and abnormal tire wear, particularly on
t h

e edges of the tire tread, which may be caused by misalignment or underinflation. If
any such damage is found, the tire must be inspected by your BFGoodrich® tire retailer
at once. Use of a damaged tire could result in tire failure and an accident. T

BFGOODRICH® TIRES

All tires will wear out faster when subjected to high speeds as well as hard cornering,
rapid starts, sudden stops, frequent driving on roads which are in poor condition, and off
road use. Roads with holes and rocks or other objects can damage tires and cause
misalignment of your vehicle. When driving on such roads, drive carefully and slowly, and
before driving again at normal or highway speeds, examine your tires for any damage,
such as cuts, bulges, penetrations, unusual wear patterns, etc.
WEAR BARS
BFGoodrich® tires contain “Wear-Bars” in the grooves of the tire tread which show up
when only 2/32 of an inch (1.6 mm) of tread is remaining. At this stage, your tires must
b e

replaced. Tires worn beyond this stage are extremely dangerous.
DO NOT OVERLOAD - DRIVING ON ANY OVERLOADED TIRE IS DANGEROUS
The maximum load rating of your tires is molded on the tire sidewall. Do not exceed this
ra
ting. Follow the loading instructions of FCA US LLC and this will ensure that your tires
are not overloaded. Tires which are loaded beyond their maximum allowable loads for
the particular application will build up excessive heat that may result in sudden tire
destruction.
Do not exceed the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) for any axle on your vehicle.
TRAILER TOWING
If you anticipate towing a trailer, you should visit any BFGoodrich® tire retailer for advice
concerning the correct size tire and pressures. Tire size and pressures will depend upon
the type and size of trailer and hitch utilized, but in no case must the maximum cold
inflation pressure or tire load rating be exceeded. Check the tire decal and the Owner’s
Manual supplied by FCA US LLC for further recommendations on trailer towing.
WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCING ARE IMPORTANT FOR SAFETY AND MAXIMUM
MI
LEAGE FROM YOUR TIRES
CHECK HOW YOUR TIRES ARE WEARING AT LEAST ONCE EACH MONTH
If your tires are wearing unevenly, such as the inside shoulder of the tire wearing faster
th
an the rest of the tread, or if you detect excessive vibration, your vehicle may be out of
alignment or balance. These conditions not only shorten the life of your tires but
adversely affect the handling characteristics of your vehicle, which could be dangerous.
If you detect irregular wear or vibration, have your alignment and balance checked
immediately. Tires which have been run underinflated will show more wear on the
shoulders than in the center of the tread.
TIRE MIXING
BFGoodrich® tires are radial tires and for best performance it is recommended that the
same size and type of tire be used on all four wheel positions. Before mixing tires of
different types in any configuration on any vehicle, be sure to check the vehicle
manufacturer’s Owner‘s Manual for its recommendations.

FALKEN TIRE CORPORATION 74
of these noted conditions are present during inspection, we recommend returning to
your servicing tire dealer to be corrected to ensure long tire life. ***Never include a
temporary spare tire in your rotation pattern***
TIRE REPLACEMENT
Falken recommends replacing your tires when the tread wears down to the wear bars at
1.6 mm (2/32 of an inch), which are located across the tread in several locations around
t h

e tire. If only two tires are being replaced, the two new tires should always be installed
on the rear of the vehicle to aid in preventing your vehicle from hydroplaning, even if your
car is front wheel drive. It is always recommended to have your new tires balanced during
installation, and alignment checked if the previous tires show and irregular wear. Tires
that have been in use for five years or more should continue to be inspected by a
qualified tire specialist, at least annually. It is recommended that any tires 10 years old
or older from the date of manufacture, including spare tires, be replaced with new tires
as a precaution even if such tires appear serviceable and even if they have not reached
the legal worn out limit at 1.6 mm (2/32 of an inch).
TIRE REPAIRS
In the event that you get a flat tire while driving, it is best to find a nearby, safe place to
stop and install your spare tire or call a tow truck. The less distance that you drive on your
low or flat tire, the better chances your tire has of being repairable. Once you are able to
get to your local servicing tire dealer, have them dismount the tire from the rim and
thoroughly inspect the inside of the tire. It is important to know the difference between a
proper tire repair and an improper one because it can be critical to you and your vehicle’s
safety. An improper repair could pose a safety threat to you and your family and could
also affect your tire’s manufacturer warranty. Here are some tips in determining if your
damaged tire can be properly repaired or not:
• Always have the tire removed from the wheel and inspected before any repair is
p
erformed.
• T ires with less than 1.6
mm (2/32 of an inch) of tread should NOT be repaired.
• N ever repair a tire with a puncture larger than 6
mm (1/4 of an inch).
• R epairs should be limited to the tread area only.
•
Repairs cannot overlap one another.
