Tires

You should carefully inspect your

car's tires for wear, damage, and

proper inflation every 7,500 miles

(12,000km) (see page

185

).

Replacing Tires and Wheels

The tires that came with your car

were selected to match the perform-

ance capabilities of the car while

providing the best combination of

handling, ride comfort, and long life.

You should replace them with radial

tires of the same size, load range,

speed rating, and maximum cold tire

pressure rating (as shown on the

tire's sidewall). Mixing radial and

bias-ply tires on your car can reduce

its braking ability, traction, and

steering accuracy.

It is best to replace all four tires at

the same time. If that is not possible

or necessary, then replace the two

front tires or the two rear tires as a

pair. Replacing just one tire can

seriously affect your car's handling.

CONTINUED

Maintenance

Installing improper tires on your

car can affect handling and

stability. This can cause a crash

in which you can be seriously

hurt or killed.

Always use the size and type of

tires recommended in this

owner's manual.
