brake FORD MUSTANG 2014 5.G Shelby GT500 Supplement Manual

Summer Tires
The Shelby GT500 is equipped with D.O.T. approved ultra high
performance summer tires with track capability. The rubber compounds
used in these tires lose flexibility and may develop surface cracks in the
tread area at temperatures below 20°F (-7°C). Always store your tires
indoors at temperatures above 20°F (-7°C). If the tires have been
subjected to 20°F (-7°C) or less, warm them in a heated space to at least
40°F (5°C) for at least 24 hours before installing them on a vehicle, or
moving the vehicle with the tires installed, or checking tire inflation. Do
not place tires near heaters or heating devices used to warm the room
where the tires are stored. Do not apply heat or blow heated air directly
on the tires. Always inspect the tires after storage periods and before
use as outlined in theOwner’s Manual. Ford does not recommend using
these high performance summer tires when temperatures drop to
approximately 40°F (5°C) or below, or in snow or ice conditions.
Winter Driving
The original equipment tires on your SVT vehicle are designed for
maximum performance in dry and wet summer conditions. They are not
designed for winter use on ice or snow and cannot be used with snow
chains. If you will be operating your vehicle in these conditions, winter
or all-season tires must be used.
•Use winter tires with a V speed rating and a 93 load index or higher
for all models. You may also use P255/40R19 winter tires with a V
speed rating and a 93 load index and 19 inch wheels from the
2010-2012 model year Shelby GT500. Using these wheels will provide
adequate brake and suspension clearance.
•Do not use a winter tire with less than a V speed rating, and even
with clear, dry driving conditions do not operate your vehicle above
posted speed limits while using winter tires. Never perform high speed
driving with winter tires.
Please call the Ford Performance Info Center at 1-800-FORD-SVT
(367-3788) for specific winter tire recommendations.
Tire Rotation
Note:Your Shelby GT500 tires (P265/40-19 front, P285/35-20 rear) are
directional. Tire rotation is not recommended for directional tires.
Note:If your tires show uneven wear, ask an authorized dealer to check
for and correct any wheel misalignment, tire imbalance or mechanical
problems.
