22PROPER TIRE REPAIRNOTE: Goodyear and Dunlop do not warrant any inspection
or repair process. The repair is entirely the responsibility
of the repairer and should be made in accordance with
established Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA)
procedures.THE CONVENIENCE (TEMPORARY)
SPAREThe Convenience (Temporary) Spare is designed, built,
and tested to the high engineering standards set by North
America’s leading car manufacturers and to Goodyear
and Dunlop’s own high standards of quality control. It is
designed to take up a minimum of storage space and, at the
same time, fulfi ll the function of a spare tire when needed.
The spare is kept in its storage space, fully infl ated at 60
psi. To be sure it is always ready for use, the air pressure
should be checked on a regular basis.
The Convenience (Temporary) Spare can be used in
combination with the original tires on your vehicle. You
can expect a tire tread life of up to 3,000 miles (4,800
kilometers) , depending on road conditions and your driv-
ing habits. To conserve tire tread life, return the spare to
the storage area as soon as it is convenient to have the
standard tire repaired or replaced.
The Convenience (Temporary) Spare weighs less than a
standard tire so it’s easier to handle. It also helps reduce
the total car weight which contributes to fuel economy.
The wheels used with the Convenience (Temporary) Spare
are specifi cally designed for use with high pressure spares
and should never be used with any other type tire.
GOODYEAR/DUNLOP TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY
DON’T ATTEMPT TO MOUNT YOUR OWN
TIRESSerious injury or Death may result from explosion of tire/rim
assembly due to improper mounting procedures. Follow
tire manufacturer’s instructions and match tire diameter to
rim diameter. Mount light truck radials on rims approved for
radial service. Do not apply bead sealer. This can inhibit
bead seating. Lubricate beads and tire rim (including tube or
fl ap) contact surfaces. Lock assembly on mounting machine
or place in safety cage. STAND BACK and never exceed
40 psi to seat beads. Never use a volatile substance or
a rubber “donut” (also known as a bead expander or “O-
Ring”) to aid bead seating. Only specially-trained persons
should mount tires.DON’T MIX TIRES OF DIFFERENT SIZES
AND TYPES ON THE SAME AXLEFor optimum handling and control, Goodyear and Dunlop
recommend fi tment of four (4) tires of the same type and size
unless otherwise specifi ed by the vehicle manufacturer.
WARNING: Before you replace your tires, always consult
the vehicle owner’s manual and follow the vehicle manufac-
turer’s replacement tire recommendations. Vehicle handling
may be signifi cantly affected by a change in tire size or type.
When selecting tires that are different than the Original
Equipment size, see a professional installer in order to make
certain that proper clearance, load carrying capacity and
infl ation pressure is selected. Never exceed the maximum
load capacity and infl ation pressure listed on the sidewall of
the tire. Always drive safely and obey all traffi c laws. Avoid
sudden, sharp turns or lane changes. Failure to follow this
warning may result in loss of control of the vehicle, leading
to an accident and serious injury or death. When replacing tires, you must maintain the outside diam-
eter and load carrying capacity of the Original Equipment
tire. Infl ation pressure may need to be adjusted to avoid
overloading the tire. Consult the Tire & Rim Association
Load and Infl ation Tables, ETRTO or JATMA standards for
correct load and infl ation information.
NEVER FIT TIRES TO A VEHICLE THAT
HAVE LESS LOAD CARRYING CAPACITY
THAN AS REQUIRED BY THE ORIGINAL
EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURERExamples: Many vehicles, such as large passenger vans,
require Load Range E tires as designated by the vehicle
manufacturer. Fitment of a tire, such as a Load Range D,
with less carrying capacity is not allowed.
In other cases, tires of the same size may carry different
load indexes in the service description. You must make
certain the replacement tires fi tted to the vehicle have a
load carrying capacity equal to or greater than what the
Original Equipment manufacturer specifi es.FOLLOW THESE ADDITIONAL
GUIDELINESFit newest tires on rear axle. If radials and non-radials must
be fi tted to the same vehicle, fi t radials on rear axle. Never
mix radials and non-radials on the same axle. When fi tting
snow tires or all-season tires to performance vehicles,
always fi t in sets of four. It is not recommended to fi t tires
with different speed ratings. If tires with different speed
ratings are installed on a vehicle, they should be installed
with like pairs on the same axle. The speed capability of
the vehicle will become limited to that of the lowest speed
rated tires. It is also recommended that the lower speed
rated tires be placed on the front axle regardless of which
axle is driven to help prevent potential oversteer.(Continued on page 23)
