When a wheel is installed, always remove any corrosion, dirt and

foreign materials present on the mounting surfaces of the wheel and

the surface of the front disc brake hub and rotor that contacts the wheel.

Installing wheels without correct metal-to-metal contact at the wheel

mounting surfaces can cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel to

come off while the vehicle is in motion, resulting in loss of control.

Note: If there is corrosion on the area where the wheel contacts the

hub, apply a thin film of grease or anti-seize compound on that area.

INFORMATION CONTAINED ON THE TIRE SIDEWALL

Federal law requires tire manufacturers to place standardized

information on the sidewall of all tires. This information identifies and

describes the fundamental characteristics of the tire and also provides a

U.S. DOT Tire Identification Number for safety standard certification and

in case of a recall.

Information on “P” type tires

P215/65R15 95H is an example of a

tire size, load index and speed

rating. The definitions of these

items are listed below. (Note that

the tire size, load index and speed

rating for your vehicle may be

different from this example.)

1. P: Indicates a tire, designated by

the Tire and Rim Association

(T&RA), that may be used for

service on cars, SUVs, minivans and

light trucks.

Note: If your tire size does not

begin with a letter this may mean it

is designated by either ETRTO

(European Tire and Rim Technical Organization) or JATMA (Japan Tire

Manufacturing Association).

2. 215: Indicates the nominal width of the tire in millimeters from

sidewall edge to sidewall edge. In general, the larger the number, the

wider the tire.

3. 65: Indicates the aspect ratio which gives the tire’s ratio of height to

width.

4. R: Indicates a “radial” type tire.
