This begins with the letters DOT

and indicates that the tire meets

all federal standards. The next

two numbers or letters are the

plant code designating where it

was manufactured, the next two

are the tire size code and the last

four numbers represent the week

and year the tire was built. For

example, the numbers 317 mean

the 31st week of 1997. After 2000

the numbers go to four digits. For

example, 2501 means the 25th

week of 2001. The numbers in

between are identification codes

used for traceability. This

information is used to contact

customers if a tire defect requires

a recall.

Tire Replacement Requirements

Your vehicle is equipped with tires

designed to provide a safe ride

and handling capability.

WARNINGS

Only use replacement tires and

wheels that are the same size, load

index, speed rating and type (such

as P-metric versus LT-metric or all-season

versus all-terrain) as those originally

provided by Ford. The recommended tire

and wheel size may be found on either the

Safety Compliance Certification Label

(affixed to either the door hinge pillar,

door-latch post, or the door edge that

meets the door-latch post, next to the

driver's seating position), or the Tire Label

which is located on the B-Pillar or edge of

the driver’s door. If this information is not

found on these labels then you should

possible. Use of any tire or wheel not

recommended by Ford can affect the

safety and performance of your vehicle,

which could result in an increased risk of

loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover,

personal injury and death. Additionally the

use of non-recommended tires and wheels

could cause steering, suspension, axle,

transfer case or power transfer unit failure.

If you have questions regarding tire

replacement, contact your authorized

dealer as soon as possible.

When mounting replacement tires

and wheels, you should not exceed

the maximum pressure indicated on

the sidewall of the tire to set the beads

without additional precautions listed

below. If the beads do not seat at the

maximum pressure indicated, re-lubricate

and try again

When inflating the tire for mounting

pressures up to 20 psi (1.38 bar) greater

than the maximum pressure on the tire

sidewall, the following precautions must

be taken to protect the person mounting

the tire:

1. Make sure that you have the correct tire

and wheel size.

2. Lubricate the tire bead and wheel bead

seat area again.

3. Stand at a minimum of 12 ft (3.66 m)

away from the wheel and tire assembly.

4. Use both eye and ear protection.

For a mounting pressure more than 20 psi

(1.38 bar) greater than the maximum

pressure, a Ford dealer or other tire service

professional should do the mounting.
