86 STARTING AND OPERATING

Tire Chains
Due to limited clearance, tire chains are not recom-
mended.
CAUTION!
Damage to the vehicle may result if tire chains are
used.
Snow Tires
Some areas of the country require the use of snow tires
during winter. Some standard tires are of the all season
type and satisfy this requirement as indicated by the M+S
designation on the tire sidewall.
WARNING!
The SRT-4 is equipped with tires that are optimized
for driving in dry and wet weather conditions.
However, these tires have reduced traction capability
in snow and ice. When driving an SRT±4 in these
conditions with these tires, you must take special
care to maintain control and avoid accidents. We
recommend that you equip your vehicle with
ªSNOWº or ªALL SEASONº tires on all four wheels
for driving in snowy and icy conditions. It is neces-
sary to select tires equivalent in size and load rating
to the original equipment tires. ªSNOWº tires may
have lower speed rating than factory equipped tires
and may not match the maximum vehicle speed. Do
not use tires or wheels other than the size recom-
mended by the manufacturer for this vehicle.
If you need snow tires, select tires equivalent in size and
load rating to the original equipment tires. Refer to the
tire pressure label for inflation pressure.
