WARNING!

(Continued)

Never use a tire with a smaller load index or

capacity, other than what was originally equipped
on your vehicle. Using a tire with a smaller load
index could result in tire overloading and failure.
You could lose control and have a collision.

Failure to equip your vehicle with tires having

adequate speed capability can result in sudden tire
failure and loss of vehicle control.

CAUTION!

Replacing original tires with tires of a different size
may result in false speedometer and odometer read-
ings.

TIRE CHAINS (TRACTION DEVICES)
Use of traction devices require sufficient tire-to-body

clearance. Follow these recommendations to guard

against damage.
• Traction device must be of proper size for the tire, as

recommended by the traction device manufacturer.

• Tire chains for a 225/75R16 tire with a Quality Chain

Corp Light Truck Highway Service (Non-Cam) tire

chain or equivalent is recommended.

WARNING!

Using tires of different size and type (M+S, Snow)
between front and rear axles can cause unpredictable
handling. You could lose control and have a collision.
