Use of lift kits with some vehicle/tire combinations can
cause instability.When changing tire sizes, always con-
sult Dealer for optimum rim width and carefully checkvehicle/tire clearances.
RETREADED TIRES

ranted by Goodyear for any reason. Speed ratings and
U.S. Department of Transportation test compliance cer-
tifications are voided for retreaded tires.
DO MAINTAIN VEHICLE SUSPENSION,
WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCE
AND ROTATE YOUR TIRES
Lack of rotation, worn suspension parts, underinflation/
overinflation, wheel imbalance and misalignment can
cause vibration or irregular tire wear. Rotate your tires
according to your vehicle manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions or at maximum intervals of 6,000 miles/10,000 km.

HOW TO READ A TIRE D.O.T. SERIAL
NUMBER
D.O.T. stands for Department of Transportation and the
number is on the lower sidewall of each tire to show that
the tire meets or exceeds the Department of Transpor-
tation safety standards.
TIRE SERVICE LIFE
Tires are designed and built to provide many thousands
of miles of excellent service. For maximum benefit, tires
must be maintained properly to avoid tire damage that
may result in removal from service before the tread is
worn down to minimum depth.
It is not practical to accurately predict the service life of
any specific tire in chronological time since service
conditions vary widely. The serviceability of a tire over
time is a function of the storage and service conditions
(inflation pressure, load, speed, road hazard injury, etc.)
to which a tire is subjected. Consumers should not rely
solely on the appearance of the tire, but should be
aware of any change in dynamic performance such as
increased air loss, noise or vibration, which could be a
sign to remove the tire. Therefore, it is essential to havetires, including spares, inspected regularly (at least
monthly) for proper inflation pressure, damage and
treadwear.
Check your vehicle’s owner’s manual (or your
vehicle) to determine if it is equipped with run-
flat (extended mobility) tires. If your vehicle is
equipped with run-flat tires, the following ap-
plies:
