REPLACEMENT PRICE
Radial passenger and light truck tires
adjusted under this Limited Warranty will
be replaced free of charge during the first
25% of tread wear or within 12 months
from the date of purchase (proof of
purchase date required; without proof of
purchase date, then within 12 months
from the date of tire manufacture),
whichever occurs first. During the free
replacement period, mounting and

To determine the replacement price after
the free tire replacement period, the
percent of used tread wear is multiplied by the current selling price for the
replacement tire(s). The appropriate
taxes, mounting, balancing, disposal fee,
and other service charges may be added
to the adjustment replacement price.
In Canada, the tire will be adjusted at
dealerships (subject to dealer discretion)
at a predetermined “Adjustment Price.”

Limited Warranty, it will be covered by the
manufacturer’s warranty, if any, given on
that tire at that time.
WHERE TO GO
Tire adjustments under this Limited
Warranty will only be made at an
authorized Bridgestone Firestone retailer.
