• Treadwear - The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based
on the wear rate of the tire tested under controlled conditions on
a specified government test track. For example, a tire graded
200 would wear twice as long on the government course as a
tire graded 100. It is wrong to link treadwear grades with your
projected tire mileage. The relative performance of the tires
depends upon the actual conditions of their use and may vary
due to driving habits, service practices, differences in road
characteristics, and climate.
•
Traction - The traction grades from highest to lowest are AA, A, B,
and C, and they represent the tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement
as measured under controlled conditions on specified government
test surfaces of asphalt and concrete.
• Temperature - The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and
C, representing the tire’s resistance to the generation of heat and
its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled conditions
on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained high
temperatures can cause the materials of the tire to degenerate and
reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire
failure. The grade C corresponds to a level of performance that all
passenger car tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard No. 139. Grades B and A represent higher levels
of performance on the laboratory test wheel than the minimum
required by law.

If you prefer, you may register your tires on our web page at
www.nittotire.com and select “Tire Registration.” Be prepared to
provide the name and address of the dealer, the quantity of tires, and
the DOT serial numbers from the sidewall of the tires.
IMPORTANT! If self-registering tires, make sure to include all letters
and numbers (up to 12 digits) following the letters “DOT” on the tire’s
sidewall near the bead. If you see only four letters next to the letters\

“DOT”, look on the other side of the tire for the full DOT number.

Other Warranties
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS THE ONLY EXPRESS WARRANTY
GIVEN BY PIRELLI. PIRELLI DOES NOT MAKE ANY OTHER
EXPRESS WARRANTY, AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES,
INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES
OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED TO THE APPLICABLE DURATION OF
THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. PIRELLI DOES NOT AUTHORIZE ANY
OTHER PERSON, INCLUDING AUTHORIZED PIRELLI DEALERS
OR VEHICLE MANUFACTURERS, OR VEHICLE DEALERS, TO
CHANGE THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR CREATE ANY OTHER
OBLIGATION IN CONNECTION WITH PIRELLI TIRES.
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty
lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you.
What Is the Standard Limited Warranty Coverage?
If an eligible Pirelli tire becomes unserviceable due to workmanship
or material defects within the first year from the date of purchase
or within the first 2/32” of the original usable tread , whichever
occurs first, the tire will be replaced with an identical or comparable
Pirelli tire at no charge to the owner, including mounting and balancing
(subject to applicable limitations). Miscellaneous fees and taxes are
not covered under this Limited Warranty.
If a Pirelli tire becomes unserviceable due to workmanship or material
defects (other than ride-related complaints and Road Hazard) following
the initial warranty period above, the owner must pay the pro-rata
cost for a comparable Pirelli Replacement Tire. Owner is responsible
for mounting and balancing charges. An authorized Pirelli dealer will
determine the pro-rata cost by multiplying the percentage of
the original usable tread that has been worn by the current dealer
selling price.
When the treadwear indicators become visible (2/32” tread depth
remaining), regardless of age or mileage, the tire is considered to be \
100% worn and will not be covered by this Limited Warranty.

Tire Care and Service
Tire Sidewall Markings
Tire Size: A combination of alphabetic and numeric characters that
indicate the nominal dimensions of a tire:

PIRELLI
197
For Example:
Load Index Number: a numeric code which indicates the maximum
load carrying capacity of a tire at the maximum cold inflation pressure.
Speed Symbol: an alphabetical code which indicates the maximum
speed at which the tire can carry a load corresponding to its Load
Index when properly inflated. These two items together are known as
the “Service Description”.
Speed Symbol Chart
*For tires having a maximum speed capability above 149 mph, a “ZR”
may appear in the size designation; above 186 mph, a “ZR” must
appear in the size designation, and a Service Description, including the\

“Y” speed symbol, must be included in brackets.
Other Markings
•
P - As part of the tire size designation (e.g., P205/65R15), is used
to indicate tires intended for service on passenger cars.
•
LT - As part of the tire size designation (e.g. LT235/75R15), is used
to indicate the tires are intended for service on light truck vehicles.
•
M&S, M+S, M/S - Letters used to indicate a tire suitable for Mud
and Snow and/or All Season usage.
•
XL - As part of the size designation (e.g. P235/75R16 XL), is used
to indicate the tire can carry more load as the maximum inflation

achieve their distinctive performance in dry conditions. As a result of
that, their performance in cold temperatures, heavy rain or standing
water will be decreased. Use extreme caution and drive slowly on wet
roads. Additionally, the minimum tread depth will be reached earlier
than with standard road tires, resulting in reduced tread life.
Winter Tires
In low temperature conditions, Pirelli recommends the fitment of
4 winter tires of the same line. Please check your vehicle owner’s
manual concerning winter tire size recommendation. If the winter tires
have a lower speed rating than the original equipment tires, vehicle
handling may be affected, and the vehicle maximum speed must be
reduced to the winter tire speed rating.
If using studded winter tires, Pirelli recommends that studded tires be \
installed on all four positions.
Please note that studded tires are not legal in all states. Please
check the applicable legal requirements before installing
studded tires.
Please note, for both winter tire and studded tire usage, if such tires \
are applied to the front axle, they must also be applied to the rear axle.
Run Flat Tires
Always refer to the vehicle owner’s manual with respect to specific
safety and operating information relating to the vehicle. Damaged Run
Flat tires or Run Flat tires that have experienced a loss of pressure
should immediately be replaced with another Run Flat tire of identical
size and Service Description (Load Index and Speed Symbol).
Run Flat tires have been developed based on the specifications of
the vehicles on which they are mounted. Accordingly, Run Flat tires
should only be mounted on vehicles specifically manufactured to
accommodate Run Flat tires.
Run Flat tires must be mounted in conjunction with a functional Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).

minimum tread depth and they may be dangerous if left in service.
Tires should be removed from service for numerous reasons,
including tread worn down to minimum depth, damage or abuse
(including, without limitation, punctures, cuts, impacts, cracks, bulges,
under inflation, overloading, etc.). For these reasons, tires, including
spares, should be inspected at least once a month and before long
trips. Inspection should occur regardless of whether the vehicle is
equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system. In addition to these
visual conditions, consumers should take note of and address any
change in performance such as increased air loss, noise or vibration or \
other factors.
The mere passage of time (age) does not cause tires to deteriorate,
but rather exposure to outside forces. The service life of a tire is a
function of service and storage conditions. For each individual tire,
this service life is determined by many factors such as temperature/
weather, storage conditions, and service conditions (e.g., load, speed,
inflation pressure, maintenance, and road hazard damage, etc.) to
which a tire is subjected throughout its life. Since service and storage
conditions vary widely, accurately predicting the service life of any
specific tire based on chronological age is not possible. There is no
scientific or technical data that establishes or identifies a minimum
or maximum service life, but the longer a tire has been in service,
the greater the chance that it will need to be replaced due to service-
related conditions.
Only use a mild soap solution to clean tires and rinse the soap off with
low pressure tap water, use of high-pressure sprayers may cause
damage. Never apply cleaners or other products to enhance sidewall
or tire appearance to avoid removal of substances which are intended
to protect the tire and reduce rubber degradation associated with the
impact of ozone and other environmental conditions.
The removal of these substances may degrade the rubber and can
lead to sidewall cracking. To remove the protective film from a Pirelli
tire with white letters, first flood the area with a stream of water from a
hose. After a minute or two the film will soften and it can be removed
with soft nylon brush if needed.
