TIRE SAFETY INFORMATION

Tire Markings

NOTE:

• P (Passenger) - Metric tire sizing is based on U.S.

design standards. P-Metric tires have the letter “P”

molded into the sidewall preceding the size designa-

tion. Example: P215/65R15 95H.

• European-Metric tire sizing is based on European

design standards. Tires designed to this standard have

the tire size molded into the sidewall beginning with

the section width. The letter ЉPЉ is absent from this tire

size designation. Example: 215/65R15 96H.

• Temporary spare tires are spares designed for tempo-

rary emergency use only. Temporary high pressure

compact spare tires have the letter “T” or “S” molded

into the sidewall preceding the size designation. Ex-

ample: T145/80D18 103M.

CAUTION!

Do not use two different size tires on the rear wheels,
as this can result in rear axle damage.
