•When replacing tires, the only way to assure original performance is to
use the original equipment tire. If a different tire is used, it should be
the same size, speed rating and load rating.
WHEELS
Your SVT vehicle is equipped with unique wheels matched to the tires.
These wheels are more susceptible to damage due to their diameter,
width and low profile tires. To avoid damage to your wheels:
•Maintain proper tire pressure (see“Tires”previously listed).
•Extra caution should be taken when using automatic car washes.
Although your vehicle is capable of being washed in an automatic car
wash, equipment may vary and wheel damage is possible.
•When installing wheels, always torque lug nuts to specification with a
torque wrench.
•Inspect your wheels for damage on a regular basis. If a wheel is
damaged, replace it immediately.
•In the event that you encounter an abnormally harsh impact, inspect
the outer diameter of your wheels, both inside and out, for damage
OPERATING AT HIGH SPEEDS
Your SVT vehicle is capable of high speeds and is equipped with tires
rated for the vehicles maximum speed. Remember to drive safely, obey
all traffic laws and only operate your SVT vehicle at high speeds at
locations equipped and designed to do so safely. Before operating your
vehicle at high speeds:
•Assure correct tire pressures (see“Tires”previously listed).
•Inspect wheels and tires for wear and damage. Replace any damaged
wheels or tires.
•Do not operate your vehicle at high speeds with more than two
passengers or while carrying cargo.
WINTER DRIVING
The original equipment tires on your SVT vehicle are designed for
maximum performance in dry and wet conditions. They are not designed
for winter use on ice or snow and cannot be used with snow chains. If
you be operating your vehicle in these conditions, winter or all-season
tires must be used. Contact the Ford SVT Hotline at 1–800–FORD-SVT
for information on SVT recommended winter tires for your vehicle. When
using winter or all-season tires:
