It is best to replace all four tires at

thesametime.Ifthatisnotpossible

or necessary, then replace the two

front tires or the two rear tires as a

pair. Replacing just one tire can

seriously affect your vehicle’s han-

dling.

When shopping for replacement

tires, you may find that some tires

are ‘‘directional.’’ This means they

are designed to rotate only in one

direction. If you use directional tires,

they should be rotated only front-to-

back.

The tires that came with your

vehicle were selected to match the

performance capabilities of the

vehicle while providing the best

combination of handling, ride

comfort,andlonglife.Youshould

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 vehicle can reduce its

braking ability, traction, and steering

accuracy.
