2012 Dodge Charger Owner Manual SRT8 - Page 423

STARTING AND OPERATING 421 WARNING! (Continued) • Never use a tire with a smaller load index or capacity, other than what was originally equipped on your vehicle. Using a tire with a smaller load index could result in tire overloading and failure. You could lose control and have a collision. • Failure to equip your vehicle with tires having adequate speed capability can result in sudden tire failure and loss of vehicle control. TIRE CHAINS If driving conditions require tire chains for your vehicle, use only chains that meet SAE type "Class S" specifications. In addition, only install tire chains on 245/45ZR20 size tires. Contact you local authorized dealership or tire dealer for these size tires. CAUTION! To avoid damage to your vehicle or tires, observe the following precautions: • Because of restricted chain clearance between tires and other suspension components, it is important that only chains in good condition are used. Broken chains can cause serious damage. Stop the vehicle immediately if noise occurs that could indicate chain breakage. Remove the damaged parts of the chain before further use. (Continued) 5 CAUTION! Replacing original tires with tires of a different size may result in false speedometer and odometer readings.
