TIRE SERVICE LIFETires are designed and built to provide many thousands of
miles of excellent service. For maximum benefi t, 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 specifi c tire in chronological time since service condi-
tions vary widely. The serviceability of a tire over time is
a function of the storage and service conditions (infl ation
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 have tires, including
spares, inspected regularly (at least monthly) for proper
infl ation pressure, damage and treadwear.
