WARNING
Keep your vehicle's tires properly
inflated and not overloaded:
Driving with improperly inflated or
overloaded tires is dangerous.
Excessive speed, underinflation, or
excessive loading, either separately or
in combination, can cause heat
buildup and possible tire failure. The
temperature grade for this tire is
established for a tire that is properly
inflated and not overloaded.

These grades will be added to the
sidewalls of passenger vehicle tires
over the next several years according to
a schedule established by the NHTSA
and the tire manufacturers.

The grade of tires available as standard
or optional equipment on Mazda
vehicles may vary with respect to
grade.

ALL PASSENGER VEHICLE TIRES MUST
CONFORM TO THESE GRADES AND
TO ALL OTHER FEDERAL TIRE-SAFETY
REQUIREMENTS.
▼ UNIFORM TIRE QUALITY
GRADING
Quality grades can be found where
applicable on the tire sidewall
between tread shoulder and maximum
section width.
For example:

road when it's mounted on the
vehicle.

Seating capacity means the total
allowable number of vehicle
occupants. Seating capacity is
described on the tire label.

Production options weight is the
combination weight of installed regular
production options weighing over 2.3
kilograms in excess of the standard
items which they replace, and not
previously considered in the curb
weight or accessory weight, including
heavy duty brakes, ride levelers, roof
rack, heavy duty battery, and special
trim.

Rim is the metal support (wheel) for a
tire or a tire and tube assembly upon
which the tire beads are seated.Tire Maintenance
▼ Tire Maintenance
Improper or inadequate vehicle
maintenance can cause tires to wear
abnormally. Here are some important
maintenance points:
▼Tire
Inflation Pressure
Inspect all tire pressure monthly
(including the spare) when the tires are
cold. Maintain recommended
pressures for the best ride, top
handling , and minimum tire wear. Use
the pressures specified on the vehicle
tire information placard or tire label for
optimum service.
▼Tire Rotation
To equalize tread wear, rotate the tires
every 16,000 km (10,000 miles) at the
latest or sooner if irregular wear
develops. Mazda recommends to
rotate every 8,000 km (5,000 miles) to
help increase tire life and distribute
wear more evenly.
1. Forward
Do not include (TEMPORARY USE
ONLY) spare tire in rotation.

Inspect the tires for uneven wear and
damage. Abnormal wear is usually
caused by one or a combination of the
following:
Incorrect tire pressure
