Tire Information • In the event that you encounter an abnormally harsh impact, inspect your tires for damage. • Inspect your tires for damage on a regular basis. If a tire is damaged, replace it immediately. • Proper suspension alignment is critical for maximum performance and optimal tire wear. If you notice uneven tire wear, have your alignment checked. • Rotate tires as recommended in your Owner's Guide or SVT Owner's Guide Supplement. • When replacing tires, the only way to assure original performance is to use the original equipment tire. If a different tire is used, it should be the same size, speed rating and load rating. WHEELS Your SVT vehicle is equipped with unique wheels matched to the tires. These wheels are more susceptible to damage due to their diameter, width and low profile tires. To avoid damage to your wheels: • Maintain proper tire pressure (see "Tires" previously listed). • Extra caution should be taken when using automatic car washes. Although your vehicle is capable of being washed in an automatic car wash, equipment may vary and wheel damage is possible. • When installing wheels, always torque lug nuts to specification with a torque wrench. • Inspect your wheels for damage on a regular basis. If a wheel is damaged, replace it immediately. • In the event that you encounter an abnormally harsh impact, inspect the outer diameter of your wheels, both inside and out, for damage. 21 2004 Mustang (mus) Supplement USA English (fus)
