CONSUMER’S OBLIGATION
The consumer is responsible for proper tire care and
maintenance:
(1) It is recommended tires be rotated every
3,500 miles or less for high performance (low
profile) tires or every 7,500 miles or less for
standard passenger and light truck tires. More
frequent rotation may be necessary if, upon
inspection, irregular or erratic tread wear is
beginning to appear. As a general rule, front
and rear tire tread depth differential should be
kept to 2/32nds of an inch or less. Keep a
record of the rotation.
(2) The consumer must maintain the recom-
mended air pressure in the tires according to
vehicle manufacturer’s recommendation.
Check inflation pressures on all your tires, in-
cluding the spare tire, when tires are cold, at
least once a month before driving. Maintaining
proper inflation pressure is the single most
important thing you can do to ensure optimum
tread life and tire durability. To avoid injury,
NEVER reinflate a tire that has been run se-
verely underinflated.
(3) The consumer must maintain the vehicle’s
alignment in accordance with vehicle manu-
facturer’s specifications.
(4) The load capacity of the tires must not be
exceeded.(5) The tire’s maximum speed capability must not
be exceeded.
(6) Follow the maintenance recommendations and
safety warnings contained in the Owner’s
Manual and in the Important Tire Safety Infor-
mation section of this booklet.
TO MAKE A CLAIM UNDER THIS
LIMITED WARRANTY
In the event that you make a claim under the terms of the
warranty, we ask the consumer to:
(1) Present your tires and your vehicle to an au-
thorized Toyo dealer. Call consumer relations
at (800) 442- 8696 (Pacific Time) or (888)
444-8696 (Eastern Time) for assistance locat-
ing the nearest Toyo tire dealer or visit our
web site at www.toyo.com for our dealer
locator.
(2) Complete and sign the Toyo Limited Warranty
Claim form provided by the dealer and leave
the tire with the dealer for warranty
processing.
NOTE:Check with your vehicle dealership. They may
also assist you with your tire service requirements or in
obtaining tire warranty service from the tire manufac-
turer.
The consumer is entitled to an adjustment in accor-
dance with the warranty that was in effect when the tire
was installed on the vehicle as original equipment. The
adjustment policy provides for replacement with a com-
parable new Toyo tire if a Toyo tire becomes unservice-able due to an adjustable condition verified by Toyo’s
inspection of the tire. Free replacement or a pro rata
charge depends on the remaining usable tread when
tire is presented for adjustment.
LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY APPLIES ONLY TO
THE 50 UNITED STATES, AND THE DISTRICT OF
COLUMBIA. THIS WARRANTY IS THE ONLY
WRITTEN WARRANTY PROVIDED BY TOYO.No
Toyo employee, representative or dealer has the author-
ity to make or imply any representation, promise or
agreement, which in any way varies the terms of this
limited warranty.
LIMITATION AND EXCLUSION ON DAMAGES:
TOYO SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL
OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES FOR BREACH OF
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR ANY IMPLIED WAR-
RANTY, (including, for example loss of time, loss of use
of vehicle, towing charges, road service or inconve-
niences) . Some states do not allow the exclusion or
limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so
the above exclusions may not apply to you.
YOUR RIGHTS UNDER STATE LAW
This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights; and
you may also have other rights, which vary from state to
state.
THE WARRANTOR
The warrantor of Toyo Tires is Toyo Tire (U.S.A.)
Corporation, 6261 Katella Ave., Suite 2B, Cypress,
California 90630.

TREAD WEAR INDICATORS (WEAR BARS):Tires
contain Tread Wear Indicators (Wear Bars) in the
grooves of the tire tread whichshow 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.
* Provided by and published at the request of the tire
manufacturers/warrantors.
HAZARDS
Objects in the road that threaten a tire should be safely
avoided. These objects are potholes, glass, metal,
rocks, wood debris and the like. Unavoidable contact
should prompt a thorough tire inspection.
You may not always recall hitting an object that can
damage or injure your tires. If while driving your vehicle
experiences any unusual vibrations, ride disturbance or
noise and/or you suspect that possible damage to the
tires or vehicle has occurred, DO NOT JAM OR LOCK
YOUR BRAKES! Rather reduce your speed and drive
with caution until you can safely pull off the road. Stop
and inspect the tires. If the tire is underinflated or
damaged, deflate, remove the tire and rim assembly and
replace it with your spare. If you cannot detect a cause,
have the vehicle towed to the nearest vehicle or tire
dealer to have the vehicle inspected.
REPAIRING, MOUNTING AND
DEMOUNTING OF TIRES
Do not attempt to repair, mount or demount a tire
yourself. Tire changing can be dangerous and must be
done by professionally trained persons using proper
tools and procedures as specified by the Rubber Manu-
facturers Association (RMA) . Follow these mounting
recommendations. Your tires should be mounted on
wheels of correct size and type and which are in good,
clean condition. Bent, chipped or rusted wheels may
cause tire damage. The inside of the tire must be free
from foreign materials. Have your dealer check the
wheels before mounting new tires. Mismatched tires
and rims can explode during mounting. Also, mis-
matched tires and rims can result in dangerous tire
failure on the road. If a tire is mounted by error on the
wrong-sized rim, do not remount it on the proper rim -
scrap it. It may be damaged internally (which is not
externally visible) by being dangerously stretched and
could fail on the highway.
Old valves may leak. When new tubeless tires are
mounted, have new valves of the correct type installed.
Tubeless tires must be mounted only on wheels de-
signed for tubeless tires, i.e., wheels which have safety
humps or ledges.
Never perform a temporary repair, use an innertube or
inject sealant as a permanent substitute for a proper
repair. Only qualified persons should repair tires.
Be sure that all your valves have suitable valve caps.
This will keep valve cores clean and clear and guard
against leakage.REPAIRS - WHENEVER POSSIBLE, SEE A TIRE
DEALER AT ONCE.Some tire manufacturers do not
warrant any inspection or repair process. The repair is
entirely the responsibility of the repairer. Punctures in
the tread of a passenger tire which do not exceed 1/4 of
an inch (6mm) in diameter can usually be repaired by
following the Rubber Manufacturer’s Association
(RMA) Passenger and Light Truck Repair procedures.
Contact the manufacturer of your tires for its position
and assistance as to the acceptable location for a
proper repair and the repair of speed rated tires.Do not
use plug repairs. They may cause further damage
to the tire. They are not always air tight and the
plug may fail.Do not exceed posted speed limits on
any repaired tire. Certain tire manufacturers speed rat-
ings are voided if the tire is repaired.
Although a tire was properly repaired, internal structural
damage resulting from the puncture may have occurred.
Sometime later the damage may cause the tire to be
removed from service.
If the tire has a puncture in the tread which exceeds
1/4 inch (6mm) , the tire must be replaced. If any tire has
sustained a puncture, have the tire inspected internally
by a tire dealer for possible damage that may have
occurred.
Improper mounting and inflation procedures can cause
an explosion of the tire/rim assembly. Only specially
trained persons should perform these tasks. Contact
your tire store or dealer for assistance.
CAUTION -Never, under any circumstance, intro-
duce a flammable substance into a tire.

REPLACING TWO TIRES
If your vehicle was originally equipped with four tires that
were the same size and you are only replacing two of the
four tires, install the new tires on the rear axle. Placing
new tires on the front axle may cause loss of vehicle
control in some driving conditions and cause an acci-
dent and personal injury.
TRAILER TOWING
If you anticipate towing a trailer, you should see a tire
dealer for advice concerning the correct size of tire and
pressure. Tire size and pressure will depend on the type
and size of the trailer and hitch utilized, but in no case
must the maximum cold inflation pressure or the tire load
rating be exceeded. Check the tire decal and your
Owner’s Manual for further recommendations on trailer
towing.
TIRE ALTERATIONS
Do not perform any alterations on your tires. Alterations
may prevent proper performance, leading to tire dam-
age, which can result in an accident. Tires which be-
come unserviceable due to alterations such as truing,
whitewall inlays, addition of balancing or sealant liquids,
may be excluded from warranty coverage. Consult your
tire warranty.
HIGH PRESSURE TEMPORARY SPARE
TIRES
1) The high-pressure spare tire in your Nissan
vehicle is designed for temporary use only and
must not be used continually as a regular tire.
The standard tire should be repaired and/or
replaced as soon as possible.
2) Avoid driving over obstacles that may damage
the tire through impact or cutting, such as
potholes, glass, metal, etc.
3) Speed must not exceed 50MPH (80km/h) for
non-speed-rated temporary spare tires.
4) Temporary spare tires have a limited treadlife
which can vary depending on road conditions
and your driving habits. The spare tire should
be returned to the trunk as soon as the stan-
dard tire can be repaired or replaced.
5) Because the high-pressure spare tire was spe-
cifically designed for your car, it should not be
used on any other vehicle.
6) Do not use snow chains on your high-pressure
spare. This could cause damage to your
vehicle.
7) Check the tire’s cold inflation pressure monthly
and maintain at 60psi (4.2kg/cm2) even when
not in use.8) The high-pressure spare tire should not be
used with any other rim nor should standard
tires, wheel covers, or trim rings be used on
the high-pressure spare tire rim which was
originally installed.
9) When the tread wear indicator appears on the
tire, replace it only with the same type spare
tire.
10) Do not enter an automatic carwash with a tem-
porary spare tire fitted.
11) Do not make a sharp turn or apply the brakes
suddenly when driving on a high-pressure tem-
porary spare.
Note:When using any temporary type spare
tire, be sure to follow the vehicle Own-
er’s Manual instructions.
TIRE STORAGE
All tires should be stored in a cool dry place indoors so
that there is no danger of water collecting inside them.
When tires are stored they should be stored in a cool
place away from sources of heat and ozone such as hot
pipes and electric generators. Be sure that surfaces on
which tires are stored are clean and free from grease,
gasoline or other substances which could deteriorate
the rubber. (Tires exposed to these materials during
storage or driving could be subject to sudden failure.)
