Maintenance and Specifications Tires that are larger or smaller than your vehicle's original tires may also affect the accuracy of your speedometer. SNOW TIRES AND CHAINS Driving too fast for conditions creates the possibility of loss of vehicle control. Driving at very high speeds for extended periods of time may result in damage to vehicle components. Snow tires must be the same size and grade as the tires you currently have on your vehicle. The tires on your vehicle have all-weather treads that provide traction in rain or snow. The use of snow cables is not recommended for this vehicle, as damage to your vehicle may occur under extreme handling or rough road conditions. However, if you choose to operate the vehicle with snow cables, avoid these conditions and follow the manufacturer's recommendations. Do not use any type of tire chains, as this will likely cause damage to your vehicle.
