and in accordance with the maintenance recommendations
and safety warnings contained in the owner’s manual and
in the Important Tire Safety Information Section of this
booklet, are covered by this warranty against defects in
workmanship and material for the life of the original usable
tread, or 6 years from the date of purchase, whichever
comes fi rst. At that time, all warranties, express or implied,
are terminated. The usable tread is the original tread
down to the level of the tread wear indicators - 2/32nds
of an inch (1.6mm) of tread remaining. Date of purchase
is documented by new vehicle registration or tire sales
invoice. If no proof of purchase, coverage will be based
on date of manufacture.

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.

WHO IS COVEREDThe owner of a Michelin Passenger or Light Truck tire which
bears the Michelin name and complete DOT identifi cation
number.
WHAT IS COVERED AND FOR HOW LONG
Michelin Passenger and Light Truck tires, used in normal
service on the vehicle on which they were originally fi tted
and in accordance with the maintenance recommendations
and safety warnings contained in the owner’s manual and
in the Important Tire Safety Information Section of this
booklet, are covered by this warranty against defects in
workmanship and material for the life of the original usable
tread, or 6 years from the date of purchase, whichever
comes fi rst. At that time, all warranties, express or implied,
are terminated. The usable tread is the original tread
down to the level of the tread wear indicators - 2/32nds
of an inch (1.6mm) of tread remaining. Date of purchase
is documented by new vehicle registration or tire sales
invoice. If no proof of purchase, coverage will be based
on date of manufacture.
WHAT IS NOT COVEREDTires which become unserviceable due to:
• Road hazard injury (e.g., a cut, snag, bruise, impact
damage, puncture, whether repairable or not);
• Incorrect mounting of the tire, tire/wheel imbalance, or
improper repair;
• Underinfl ation, overinfl ation, improper maintenance or
other abuse;
• Mechanical irregularity in the vehicle such as wheel
misalignment resulting in uneven or rapid wear;
• Accident, fi re, chemical corrosion, tire alteration, or
vandalism;
• Ozone or weather cracking.
WHAT MICHELIN WILL DOPASSENGER AND LIGHT TRUCK TIRES
A tire which becomes unserviceable due to a condition
covered by this warranty will be replaced with a comparable
new Michelin tire, free of charge, when 2/32nds of an inch
(1.6mm) or less of the original tread is worn, (or 25% or
less, whichever is most benefi cial to the user) and within 12
months of the date of purchase. Mounting and balancing
of tires is included. The cost of any other service charges
or applicable taxes are payable by the user.
When more than 2/32nds of an inch of original tread has
been worn (or more than 25%, whichever is most benefi cial
to the user) or after 12 months from date of purchase,
the user must pay the cost of a comparable new Michelin
passenger or light truck replacement tire on a pro-rata basis.
The dealer shall determine the charge by multiplying the
percentage of the original usable tread worn by the current
actual selling price at the adjustment location or the price
on the current Michelin Base Price List, whichever is lower.
This List is based on a predetermined price intended to
fairly represent the actual selling price of the tire. The cost
of mounting, balancing and any other service charges or
applicable taxes are payable by the user.
MICHELIN TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY

(9) Replacement of four (4) or more tires from the same
vehicle will not be accepted for ride disturbance
complaints i.e. vibration, out of round, out of balance,
pulling, noise, due to the unlikely event of multiple
tires with uniformity problems.
(10) Claims for weather/ozone cracking after 5 years from
the date of manufacture.
(11) Any tire which has been run with low air pressure or
while fl at.
(12) Tires used in commercial service.
(13) Tires on vehicles regularly operated outside the United
States.
(14) Claims made by anyone other than the original retail
purchaser of the vehicle.
(15) Tires with the D.O.T. identifi cation number removed
or rendered illegible.
(16) Any tire not presented and available for Toyo’s inspec-
tion.
(17) Any tire for which mileage and tire rotation records
are not available or verifi able.
(18) Any tires worn beyond the wear bars (less than
2/32
nds of an inch of tread remaining) .
(19) Tires not supplied as original equipment on new
vehicles (refer to Owner’s Manual for coverage) .
(20) “T” Type temporary spare tires used at speeds over
50 miles per hour, exhibiting such damage.
(21) Dealer service charges are not covered for routine or
required maintenance of the tires such as alignments,
rotation or balancing.
(22) The cost of applicable federal, state and local taxes
and fees.
(23) Retreaded passenger and light truck tires are not

TOYO TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY
(5) Check infl ation pressure before use. Failure to have
proper infl ation pressure when using your spare tire
can result in serious personal injury or death. Maintain
infl ation pressure of 35 psi for the temporary full size
spare and 60 psi for the “T” Type, high pressure,
temporary spare tire. When infl ating or adding air to
a “T” Type temporary spare tire, be very careful since
the smaller tire volume can gain pressure much more
rapidly than a normal full size tire.
(6) Placing (mounting) your temporary use tire on a wheel
which is not specifi cally designed for use with the
temporary use tire or placing another type tire on
your temporary use wheel can be dangerous. Your
vehicle’s handling characteristics can be seriously
affected. You could have an accident resulting in
serious personal injury or death. Consult your vehicle
Owner’s Manual for proper use of your “temporary
use” spare tire.
(7) The “T” Type high pressure temporary spare tire
should not be used with any other wheel nor should
standard tires, snow tires, wheel covers or trim rings
be used on the high pressure spare tire wheel.
(8) Do not operate your vehicle with more than one
temporary spare in use (this does not apply to a full
size spare) and only at limited speeds and distances
as indicated on the sidewall of the tire.
(9) The “T” Type temporary spare tire may lower ground
clearance when used. Avoid driving over large ob-
stacles and other road hazards. Check your vehicle
Owner’s Manual for other special clearance precau-
tions when using the “T” Type temporary spare tire
provided in your vehicle.
(10) Follow the maintenance recommendations and safety
warnings contained in the Owner’s Manual and in
the Important Tire Safety Information section of this
booklet.
WHAT IS NOT COVERED BY THIS
LIMITED WARRANTY(1) Mileage is not warranted.
(2) Damage due to road hazards, whether repairable or
not (such as cut, snag, bruise, impact break, bulge,
puncture, improper use of tire chains, stone drill, chip,
scale) . These types of damages or air loss always
require tire removal and inspection by a qualifi ed tire
professional.
(3) Irregular tread wear or rapid tread wear due to failure
to rotate the tires at recommended intervals or from
vehicle misalignment.
(4) Damage resulting from improper repair materials or
procedures such as rope type plugs. Toyo does not
warrant any inspection or repair process. The repair
is entirely the responsibility of the repairer and should
be made in accordance with procedures as specifi ed
by the Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA) .
(5) Damage from incorrect mounting or dismounting of
the tire, incorrect wheel size, water or other material
trapped inside the tire during mounting or failure to
balance the tires.
(6) Damage or uneven tread wear from incorrect infl ation,
overloading, fi re, theft, defective mechanical condi-
tions such as brakes, shocks, rims, wreck or collision,
misuse, misapplication, negligence, willful damage or
abuse, vandalism, tire alteration, tire spinning, racing
or competition purposes.
(7) Damage, corrosion or rubber deterioration due to
the use of oil-based chemicals, water-based sealers,
balancing substances, or fl ammable gases.
(8) Uniformity problems such as ride, balance and vibra-
tion complaints after the fi rst 25% of tread wear.

34SPEED SYMBOLS - are shown on the sidewall of some
tires. The following table shows the maximum speed
corresponding to the symbol.
SPEED RATINGS †
Speed Speed Maximum
Rating mph km/Hr
M 81 130
N 87 140
P 93 150
Q 99 160
R 106 170
S 112 180
T 118 190
H 130 210
W 168 270
Y 186 300
V* 149 240
Z** 149 240
*Some V (or VR) rated tires may have a speed
capacity of greater than 149 mph (240 km/h) . Consult
your tire manufacturer for maximum speed ratings if your
vehicle capability exceeds this speed.
**Z (or ZR) rated tires are designed for use on
cars with maximum speed capabilities in excess
of 149 mph (240 km/h) . Consult your tire manufacturer
for maximum speed capabilities.
†Although a tire may be speed rated, we do not endorse the
operation of any vehicle in an unsafe or unlawful manner.
Speed ratings are based on laboratory tests which relate
to performance on the road, but are not applicable if tires
are underinfl ated, overloaded, worn out, damaged, altered,
improperly repaired, or retreaded. Furthermore, tire speed
ratings do not imply that vehicles can be safely driven at
the maximum speed for which the tire is rated, particularly
under adverse road and weather conditions or if the vehicle
has unusual characteristics. Most highway passenger tires
that do not have a speed symbol in the sidewall have a
maximum speed rating of 105 mph. Light truck highway
tires that do not have a speed symbol on the sidewall of
the tire have a maximum speed of 87 mph. Some light
truck tires may have higher maximum speeds; consult
your tire dealer. The speed and other ratings of retreaded
tires are assigned by the retreader and voids the original
manufacturer’s ratings.
IMPORTANT: In order to maintain the speed capability
of the vehicle, replacement tires must have speed ratings
equal to or higher than those fi tted as original equipment
(as indicated on the vehicle placard or owners manual) .
If tires with lower speed ratings are fi tted, the speed
capability of the vehicle will be lowered to the maximum
speed capability of the replacement tire as indicated on
the above table.
Remember...High speed driving can be dangerous and
may be damaging to your tires.
And...When driving at highway speeds, correct infl ation
pressure is especially important.
Contact the manufacturer of your tires for their position
and assistance on the repair of speed-rated tires. When
you are replacing tires that have a speed rating, you must
replace with tires of the same or higher speed rating if the
speed capability of the vehicle is to be maintained.
VISUAL INSPECTIONINSPECT YOUR TIRES. DO NOT DRIVE ON A
DAMAGED TIRE OR WHEEL. Check your tires frequently
for scrapes, bulges, separations, cuts, snags, cracks,
penetrations or excessive localized wear from hard braking.
Also check for abnormal tire wear, particularly on the edges
of the tire tread which may be caused by misalignment or
underinfl ation. Impacts can damage the inner portion of the
tire without being visible on the outside. If damage can be
seen on the tires or wheels, or if you suspect that possible
impact damage may have occurred, replace with spare at
once and have your tire store or dealer inspect your tires
immediately. Use of a damaged tire could result in tire
destruction. When inspecting your tires, including the spare,
check your air pressures. If your pressure check indicates
that one of your tires has lost pressure of two pounds or
more, look for signs of penetrations, valve leakage, or wheel
damage that may account for the air loss.
All tires will wear out faster when subjected to high speeds
as well as hard cornering, rapid starts, sudden stops,
frequent driving on roads which are in poor condition, and
off-road use. Roads with holes and rocks or other objects
can damage tires and cause misalignment of your vehicle.
When you drive on such roads, drive on them carefully
and slowly, and before driving again at normal or highway
speeds, examine your tires for any damage, such as cuts,
bulges, penetrations, unusual wear patterns, etc.
TREAD WEAR INDICATORS (WEAR BARS): Tires
contain Tread Wear Indicators (Wear Bars) in the
grooves of the tire tread which show up when only
2/32nds of an inch (1.6mm) of tread is remaining. At
this stage, your tires must be replaced. Tires worn
beyond this stage are dangerous.
