WARNING . . . . Improperly inflated tires can fail suddenly and cause an accident. The Gross Vehicle Weight rating (GVWR) is located on the F.M.V. S.S./C.M.V.S.S. certification label. The vehicle weight capacity is indicated on the Tire and Loading Information label (if so equipped). Do not load your vehicle beyond this capacity. Overloading your vehicle may result in reduced tire life, unsafe operating conditions due to premature tire failure, or unfavorable handling characteristics and could also lead to a serious accident. Loading beyond the specified capacity may also result in failure of other vehicle components. Before taking a long trip, or when ever you heavily load your vehicle, use a tire pressure gauge to ensure that the tire pressures are at the specified level. For additional information regarding tires, refer to "Important Tire Safety Information" (US) or "Tire Safety Information" (Canada) in the Warranty Information Booklet. Use only genuine GT-R tires and road wheels or an equivalent. Proper use of NISSAN recommended tires provides the greatest potential for maximum performance. - Genuine GT-R tires and road wheels or an equivalent help achieve maximum cornering performance. - Genuine GT-R tires and road wheels or an equivalent help provide road holding in the event of decreased tire pressure and punctures. - Genuine GT-R tires and road wheels or an equivalent help prevent the decrease of straight-running stability caused by uneven tire wear due to highly rigid wheels and wide tires. Do not reuse the tires that were once NOTE: . removed from the road wheels. Because the tires used with this vehicle are more rigid than ordinary tires, they may be damaged when they are removed. Even if there is no visible damage, reusing these tires is not safe and may cause an accident. In addition, the tires may be cut when they are removed from the road wheels in order to prevent scratches to the road wheels. . 8-30 Maintenance and do-it-yourself

WARNING
.
Improperly inflated tires can fail
suddenly and cause an accident.
.
The Gross Vehicle Weight rating
(GVWR) is located on the F.M.V.
S.S./C.M.V.S.S. certification la-
bel. The vehicle weight capacity
is
indicated
on
the
Tire
and
Loading Information label (if so
equipped).
Do
not
load
your
vehicle
beyond
this
capacity.
Overloading
your
vehicle
may
result in reduced tire life, unsafe
operating conditions due to pre-
mature tire failure, or unfavor-
able
handling
characteristics
and could also lead to a serious
accident.
Loading
beyond
the
specified capacity may also re-
sult in failure of other vehicle
components.
.
Before
taking
a
long
trip,
or
when ever you heavily load your
vehicle,
use
a
tire
pressure
gauge to ensure that the tire
pressures are at the specified
level.
.
For
additional
information
re-
garding tires, refer to “Important
Tire Safety Information” (US) or
“Tire Safety Information” (Cana-
da) in the Warranty Information
Booklet.
NOTE:
.
Use only genuine GT-R tires and road
wheels or an equivalent. Proper use of
NISSAN recommended tires provides
the
greatest
potential
for
maximum
performance.
— Genuine
GT-R
tires
and
road
wheels
or
an
equivalent
help
achieve maximum cornering perfor-
mance.
— Genuine
GT-R
tires
and
road
wheels or an equivalent help pro-
vide road holding in the event of
decreased tire pressure and punc-
tures.
— Genuine
GT-R
tires
and
road
wheels or an equivalent help pre-
vent the decrease of straight-run-
ning stability caused by uneven tire
wear due to highly rigid wheels and
wide tires.
.
Do not reuse the tires that were once
removed
from
the
road
wheels.
Be-
cause the tires used with this vehicle
are more rigid than ordinary tires, they
may be damaged when they are re-
moved.
Even
if
there
is
no
visible
damage, reusing these tires is not safe
and may cause an accident. In addition,
the tires may be cut when they are
removed from the road wheels in order
to
prevent
scratches
to
the
road
wheels.
