10-50 . Vehicle Care below approximately 5°C (40°F) or on ice or snow covered roads is expected. See Winter Tires on page 10-49. Ultra High Performance Summer Tires This vehicle may come with 285/ 35ZR20 and 305/35ZR20 ultra high performance summer tires. These tires have a special tread and compound that are optimized for maximum dry and wet road performance. This special tread and compound will have decreased performance in cold climates, and on ice and snow. Driving a vehicle with ultra high performance summer tires when temperatures are below approximately 5°C (40°F) is not recommended. If driving in these conditions, winter tires should be installed. See Winter Tires on page 10-49. Use only radial ply tires of the same size, load range, and speed rating as the original equipment tires. { Caution Ultra high performance summer tires have rubber compounds that lose flexibility and may develop surface cracks in the tread area at temperatures below -7°C (20°F). Always store ultra high performance summer tires indoors and at temperatures above -7°C (20°F) when not in use. If the tires have been subjected to -7°C (20°F) or less, let them warm up in a heated space to at least 5°C (40°F) for 24 hours or more before being installed or driving a vehicle on which they are installed. Do not apply heat or blow heated air directly on the tires. Always inspect tires before use. See Tire Inspection on page 10-62. Winter tires with the same speed rating as the original equipment tires may not be available for H, V, W, Y, and ZR speed rated tires. If winter tires with a lower speed rating are chosen, never exceed the tire's maximum speed capability.

Vehicle Care
.
Use only radial ply tires of the
same size, load range, and
speed rating as the original
equipment tires.
Winter tires with the same speed
rating as the original equipment tires
may not be available for H, V, W, Y,
and ZR speed rated tires. If winter
tires with a lower speed rating are
chosen, never exceed the tire's
maximum speed capability.
Summer Tires
High Performance Summer Tires
This vehicle may come with 245/
45ZR20 and 275/40ZR20, or 245/
40ZR21 and 275/35ZR21 high
performance summer tires. These
tires have a special tread and
compound that are optimized for
maximum dry and wet road
performance. This special tread and
compound will have decreased
performance in cold climates, and
on ice and snow. We recommend
installing winter tires on the vehicle
if frequent driving at temperatures
below approximately 5°C (40°F) or
on ice or snow covered roads is
expected. See
Winter Tires on
page 10-49
.
Ultra High Performance Summer
Tires
This vehicle may come with 285/
35ZR20 and 305/35ZR20 ultra high
performance summer tires. These
tires have a special tread and
compound that are optimized for
maximum dry and wet road
performance. This special tread and
compound will have decreased
performance in cold climates, and
on ice and snow. Driving a vehicle
with ultra high performance summer
tires when temperatures are below
approximately 5°C (40°F) is not
recommended. If driving in these
conditions, winter tires should be
installed. See
Winter Tires on
page 10-49
.
{
Caution
Ultra high performance summer
tires have rubber compounds that
lose flexibility and may develop
surface cracks in the tread area
at temperatures below -7°C
(20°F). Always store ultra high
performance summer tires
indoors and at temperatures
above -7°C (20°F) when not in
use. If the tires have been
subjected to -7°C (20°F) or less,
let them warm up in a heated
space to at least 5°C (40°F) for
24 hours or more before being
installed or driving a vehicle on
which they are installed. Do not
apply heat or blow heated air
directly on the tires. Always
inspect tires before use. See
