Your vehicle’s tire placard and/or owner’s manual will list the cold 
inflation pressure(s) for your vehicle’s original equipment tires, 
including the spare. The placard can be found on the driver’s side door 
or door jamb area. If you have questions about understanding your 
vehicle’s tire placard, please refer to your owner’s manual or ask a 
qualified tire service professional.
Example of what  
your vehicle  
placard looks like:
Checking Your Tire’s Air Pressure
Checking your air pressure at least once a month is vital to help your 
tires perform properly and help you get the best gas mileage possible. 
Tires can lose up to 7 kPa (1 PSI) per month under normal conditions 
and lose up to 7 kPa (1 PSI) per every 9°C (16°F) drop in temperature. 
Here are some simple steps on how to check the air pressures in  
your tires:1.
 Remove the valve stem cap.
2.
 Place the end of the tire gauge firmly against the tire’s valve stem.
3.
 Read the current pressure displayed on the gauge that is 
currently in the tire.
4.
 Increase pressure at this time (if needed) and recheck with your 
tire gauge.
5.
 Replace the valve stem cap.
6.
 Repeat until all of your tires have been checked and adjusted 
accordingly.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
A tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is a safety system found  
in most vehicles manufactured after 2005. There are pressure  
sensing transmitters mounted inside of each tire that sends readings 
to the central computer (ECU) in your vehicle. The TPMS system will 
alert you when one or more of your tires are underinflated by 25% 
or more by turning on a warning light on your vehicle’s dashboard or 
heads up display (HUD) screen. This means that one or more of your 
tires may have a low-pressure condition. Follow the instructions in your 
owner’s manual.
Rotation and Wear
Falken recommends rotating your tires at least every 8,000km (5,000 
miles) and periodically inspecting your tires to make sure they are 
free of road hazards (such as nails, screws, large wood splinters, etc.) 
that might penetrate your tires causing them to lose air pressure and 
to ensure they are wearing evenly. Common irregular wear patterns 
are: misalignment wear, where the tire shows excessive outer or inner 
tread wear. Tire sidewalls should also be inspected for cuts, snags, 
bruises, and weather cracking. If any of these noted conditions are 
present during inspection, we recommend returning to your servicing 
tire dealer to be corrected to ensure long tire life. ***Never include a 
temporary spare tire in your rotation pattern***

Speed Limits
 SAFETY WARNING
Operating your vehicle in excess of the posted speed limit or the 
maximum speed allotted by driving conditions has the potential to be 
dangerous. Higher driving speeds create excessive heat buildup in a 
tire, leading to a possible tire failure.
Tire Spinning
 SAFETY WARNING
Spinning a tire to get a stuck vehicle out of mud, ice, snow, sand, 
or wet grass can be potentially dangerous. A spinning tire at a 
speedometer reading above 55 km/h (35 mph) can be capable of 
disintegrating a tire with explosive force. In some circumstances, a tir\
e 
may be spinning at twice the speed displayed on the speedometer. 
This can cause serious injury or death to you, a passenger, or 
bystander. Never spin a tire above 55 km/h (35 mph).
