Your ST vehicle is equipped with low profile, high performance tires that
are designed to optimize the driving dynamics you expect in a ST
vehicle. These tires are not optimized for off-road or winter (snow or
cold weather) performance, and their ride, noise and wear characteristics
are different than non-performance tires. Also, because of their lower
profile, the tires are more susceptible to damage due to potholes and
rough roads. To make sure that your tires perform as intended, it is
important that you maintain your tires properly:
•Note:Do not use tire chains on the original wheels and tires of your
vehicle. The use of any type of tire chain on these tires may damage
your vehicle.
•Do not overload your vehicle. Maximum vehicle and axle weights are
listed on the tire information placard.
•Extra caution should be taken when operating the vehicle near its
maximum load, including assuring proper tire pressure and reducing
speeds.
•Extra caution should be taken when operating on rough roads to avoid
impacts that could cause tire damage.
•In the event that you encounter an abnormally harsh impact, inspect
your tires for damage.
