A tire has delivered its original usable tread and its warranty ends when at least one of the treadwear indicators becomes visible regardless of age or mileage. To maintain proper vehicle dynamics and load carrying capacity, replacement tires must always have a Load Index and Speed Rating equal to or greater than those fitted as Original Equipment. Pirelli does not recommend, endorse, or encourage in any way a reduction in speed ratings or load indexes under any circumstance. What Is Not Covered By The Warranty? • P-Metric tires used on commercial vehicles or used in commercial applications • Tires transferred from the vehicle on which they were originally installed. • Tires on any vehicle registered and normally operated outside the United States of America or Canada. • Tires which have been recapped, or retreaded, or regrooved. • Tires used in racing or other competitive events. • Tires improperly repaired or with repairs not conforming to Rubber Manufacturers Association standards, or with section repairs, or with self-vulcanizing plug only. • Tires which have been modified by the addition or removal of material or any tire intentionally altered to change its appearance. • Tires injected with liquid balancer or sealant or in which anything other than air or nitrogen has been used as the support medium. • Tires with weather cracking which were purchased more than four years prior to presentation for adjustment. (If no proof of purchase date is available, tires manufactured four or more years prior to presentation for adjustment.) • Tire unserviceability caused by tire operation in excess of tire/wheel manufacturers' specifications and recommendations. • Ride related complaints after the first 2/32Љ of treadwear. • Tires which are mis-applied due to insufficient speed rating, or undersized, or oversized tires. • Tires which become unserviceable because of a mechanical irregularity in the vehicle such as misalignment, defective brakes, defective shock absorbers, or improper rims. 44
