  •  When tire replacement is necessary, the original equipment type tire should be used.
  •  Do not mix different types of tires on the same vehicle such as radial and bias-belted tires except in emergencies, because handling may be seriously affected and may result in loss of control.
  •  Replacement wheel must be equivalent to the original equivalent wheel.
