UNIFORM TIRE QUALITY GRADING
Quality Grades can be found where applicable
on the tire sidewall between tread shoulder and
maximum section width. For example:
Wheel rims and tires are matched to suit the
handling characteristics of the vehicle. For
safety, ALWAYS check that replacement tires
comply with the original specification (see
‘WHEELS & TIRES’, page 247) and that the load
and speed ratings shown on the side wall are
the same as that of the original equipment.
Contact your Land Rover retailer for further
information or assistance.
Treadwear 200
Traction AA
Temperature A
Tires that are deep tread, winter-type snow tires
are exempt from the marking requirements as
described above. Consequently, the tires fitted
to your vehicle may not carry these markings.
WARNING
ALWAYS use the same make and type of
radial-ply tires front and rear. DO NOT use
bias-ply tires, or interchange tires from front
to rear.
All passenger car tires must conform to Federal
Safety Requirements in addition to these
grades.
Treadwear
Your vehicle is fitted with road wheels that
will NOT accept inner tubes. DO NOT fit a
tubed tire.
The treadwear grade is a comparative rating
based on the wear rate of the tire when tested
under controlled conditions on a specified
government test course. For example; a tire
graded 150 would wear one and one-half (1½)
times as well on the government course as a
tire graded 100. The relative performance of
tires depends upon the actual conditions of
their use however, and may depart significantly
from the norm due to variations in driving
habits, service practices and differences in road
characteristics and climate.
DO NOT replace wheels with any type other
than genuine Land Rover parts. Wheels and
tires are designed for both off-road and
on-road use and have a very important
influence on vehicle handling. Alternative
wheels which do not meet original equipment
specifications should not be fitted as they
could affect vehicle handling.
Always have replacement wheels and tires
balanced before use.
