intending to drive your vehicle and when

the tires are cold.

Note:

Check your tire pressures regularly to

optimize fuel economy.

Note:

Use only approved wheel and tire

sizes. Using other sizes could damage your

vehicle and will make the National Type

Approval invalid.

Note:

If you change the diameter of the tires

from that fitted at the factory, the

speedometer may not display the correct

TIRE CARE

Important information for

205/40R17 low-profile tires

and wheels

If your vehicle is

equipped with 205/40R17 tires,

they are low-profile tires. These

tires and wheels are designed to

give your vehicle a sport

appearance. With low-profile tires,

you may notice an increase in road

noise and faster tire wear,

depending on road conditions and

driving styles. Due to their design,

low-profile tires and wheels are

more prone to road damage from

potholes, rough or unpaved roads,

car wash rails and curb contact

than standard tires and wheels.

Note:

Your vehicle’s warranty does

not cover these types of damage.

Tires should always be kept at the

correct inflation pressures and

extra caution should be taken when

operating on rough roads to avoid

impacts that could cause wheel

and tire damage.
