vehicle, but it is not. Installation of this limited-use spare
tire affects vehicle handling. Since it is not the same as
your original equipment tire, replace (or repair) the
original equipment tire and reinstall on the vehicle at the
first opportunity.

handling. With this tire, do not drive more than the
speed listed on the limit-use spare wheel. Keep

your Tire and Loading Information Placard located

result in loss of vehicle control.
