348 MAINTENANCE CAUTION! Do not use the compact spare tire for tire rotation. Tire chains Snow tires should be inflated 4 psi (28 kPa) higher than the inflation pressure shown on the vehicle's tire placard. Never inflate over the maximum pressure shown on the tire sidewall. Snow tires should not be operated at sustained speeds over 75 mph (120 km/h). NOTE: As flange nuts are used on your vehicle, change to tapered nuts when snow tires (steel wheels) are used. CAUTION! Tire chains are not recommended for your vehicle. The clearance between the chains and the body is small, and the body might be damaged. Snow tires Some areas of the country require the use of snow tires during winter. Standard tires are of the all season type and satisfy this requirement as indicated by the M+S designation on the tire side wall. If you need snow tires, select tires equivalent in size and type to the original equipment tires. Failure to do so may adversely affect the safety and handling of your vehicle.
