1. Manufacturer or Brand name
o Manufacturer or Brand name is
shown.
2. Tire size (example: P175/70R13)
o The "P" indicates the tire is de-
signed for passenger vehicles. A
"T" is the designation for a tempo-
rary spare tire.
o Three-digit number (175): This
number gives the width in millime-
ters of the tire from sidewall edge
to sidewall edge.
o Two-digit number (70): This num-
ber, known as the aspect ratio,
gives the tire's ratio of height to
width.
o R: The "R" stands for radial.
o Two-digit number (13): This num-
ber is the wheel or rim diameter in
inches.
o Two (or three) digit number (82):
This number is the tire's load in-
dex. It is a measurement of how
much weight each tire can sup-
port.o T: Speed Rating. The speed rat-
ing denotes the speed at which a
tire is designed to be driven for
extended periods of time. The
ratings range from "A" to "Z" (98
to 186 MPH).
3. TIN (Tire Identification Number) for
new tire (example: DOT XX XX
XXX XXXX)
o DOT: Abbreviation for the "De-
partment of Transportation". The
symbol can be placed above, be-
low or to the left or right of the Tire
Iden tification Number. In-
dicates tire is in compliance with
the U.S. Department of
Transportation Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards.
o 1st two-digit code: Manufacturer's
identification mark
o 2nd two-digit code: Tire size
o 3rd three-digit code: Tire type code
(Optional)
o 4th four-digit code: Date of Manu-
factureo Four numbers represent the week
and year the tire was built. For
example, the numbers 3104
means the 31st week of 2004.
4. Tire ply composition and mate-
rial
The number of layers or plies of
rubbercoated fabric in the tire. Tire
manufacturers also must indicate
the materials in the tire, which in-
clude steel, nylon, polyester, and
others. The letter "R" means radial
ply construction; the letter "D" means
diagonal or bias ply construction;
and the letter "B" means belted-bias
ply construction.
5. Maximum permissible inflation
pressure
This number is the greatest amount
of air pressure that should be put in
the tire. Do not exceed the maxi-
mum permissible inflation pressure.
Refer to the Tire and Loading Infor-
mation label for recommended infla-
tion pressure.

Vehicle Capacity Weight: The num-
ber of designated seating positions
multiplied by 150 lbs. (68 kg) plus the
rated cargo and luggage load
Vehicle Maximum Load on the Tire:
Load on an individual tire due to curb
and accessory weight plus maximum
occupant and cargo weight.
Vehicle Normal Load on the Tire:
That load on an individual tire that is
determined by distributing to each axle
its share of the curb weight, accessory
weight, and normal occupant weight
and driving by 2.
Vehicle Placard: A label permanently
attached to a vehicle showing the origi-
nal equipment tire size and recom-
mended inflation pressure
I040A01O-AATSNOW TIRES
If you equip your car with snow tires,
they should be the same size and
have the same load capacity as the
original tires. Snow tires should be
installed on all four wheels; otherwise,
poor handling may result.
Snow tires should carry 4 psi (28 kPa)
more air pressure than the pressure
recommended for the standard tires on
the tire label on the driver's side of the
center pillar , or up to the maximum
pressure shown on the tire sidewall
whichever is less.
Do not drive faster than 75 mph (120
km/h) when your car is equipped with
snow tires.
I040B01JM-AATALL SEASON TIRES
Hyundai specifies all season tires on
some models to provide good perfor-
mance for use all year round, including
snowy and icy road conditions. All sea-
son tires are identified by ALL SEA-
SON and/or M+S (Mud and Snow) on
the tire sidewall. Snow tires have better
snow traction than all season tires an
may be more appropriate in some ar-
eas.I040C01JM-AATSUMMER TIRES
Hyundai specifies summer tires on
some models to provide superior per-
formance on dry roads. Summer tire
performance is substantrally reduced in
snow and ice. Summer tires do not
have the tire traction rating M+S (Mud
and Snow) on the tire side wall. if you
plan to operate your vehicle in snowy or
icy conditions. Hyundai recommends
the use of snow tires or all season tires
on all four wheels.

I060A02A-AATTIRE ROTATION
Tires should be rotated every 7,500
miles (12,000 km). If you notice that
tires are wearing unevenly between
rotations, have the car checked by a
Hyundai dealer so the cause may be
corrected.
After rotating, adjust the tire pressures
and be sure to check the wheel nut
torque.
HEF-241
!
I050A03A-AATTIRE CHAINSTire chains, if necessary, should be installed on
the front wheels. Be sure that the chains are
installed in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions.
To minimize tire and chain wear, do not con-
tinue to use tire chains when they are no
longer needed.
WARNING:
o When driving on roads covered with snow
or ice, drive at less than 20 mph (30 km/h).
o Use the SAE "S" class or wire & plastic
chains.
o If you have noise caused by chains
contacting the body, retighten the chain
to avoid contact with the vehicle body.
o To prevent body damage, retighten the
chains after driving 0.3~0.6 miles.
!
WARNING:
o Do not use the temporary spare
tire for tire rotation.
o Do not mix bias ply and radial ply
tires under any circumstances.
This may cause unusual handling
characteristics that could result
in death, serious injury, or prop-
erty damage.

I070A01A-AATTIRE BALANCING
A tire that is out of balance may affect
handling and tire wear. The tires on
your Hyundai were balanced before
the car was delivered but may need
balancing again during the years you
own the car.
Whenever a tire is dismounted for
repair, it should be rebalanced before
being reinstalled
on the car.I080A01A-AATTIRE TRACTION
Tire traction can be reduced if you
drive on worn tires, tires that are im-
properly inflated or on slippery road
surfaces. Tires should be replaced
when tread wear indicators appear. To
reduce the possibility of losing control,
slow down whenever there is rain,
snow or ice on the road.
I090A01A-AATWHEN TO REPLACE TIRES
Tread wear in-
dicator 0.06 in. (1.6 mm)
HGK248
The original tires on your car have
tread wear indicators. The location of
tread wear indicators is shown by the
"TWI" or " " marks, etc., The tread
wear indicators appear when the tread
depth is 0.06 in. (1.6 mm). The tire
should be replaced when these appear
as a solid bar across two or more
grooves of the tread. Always replace
your tires with those of the recom-
mended size. If you change wheels,
the new wheel's rim width and offset
must meet Hyundai specification.
!
WARNING:
o Driving on worn-out tires is dan-
gerous! Worn-out tires can cause
loss of braking effectiveness,
steering control and traction.
When replacing tires, never mix
radial and bias ply tires on the
same car. If you replace radial
tires with bias-ply tires, they must
be installed in sets of four.
o Using tires and wheels of other
than the recommended sizes
could cause unusual handling
characteristics that could cause
death, serious injury, or property
damage.
o Wheels that do not meet Hyundai's
dimensional specifications may
fit poorly and result in damage to
the vehicle, including broken
wheel studs.

Temperature A, B, C - The tempera-
ture grades are A (the highest), B, and
C, representing the tire's resistance to
the generation of heat and its ability to
dissipate heat when tested under con-
trolled conditions on a specified indoor
laboratory test wheel. Sustained high
temperature can cause the material of
the tire to degenerate and reduce tire
life, and excessive temperature can
lead to sudden tire failure. The grade C
corresponds to a level of performance
which all passenger car tires must
meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B
and A represent higher levels of perfor-
mance on the laboratory test wheel
than the minimum required by law.
!
WARNING:
The temperature grade for this tire
is established for a tire that is prop-
erly inflated and not overloaded.
Excessive speed, underinflation, or
excessive loading, either separately
or in combination, can cause heat
buildup and possible tire failure.
Uniform Tire Quality Grading - Qual-
ity grades can be found on the tire
sidewall between the tread shoulder
and the maximum section width.
For example:
