and colours are subject to change without notice. Some features may be unavailable when your vehicle is built. Some
vehicles are pictured with options that may be available at extra cost or may not be available on some models. Ask
your dealer about availability of options and verify that the vehicle you ordered includes the equipment you ordered.
Tires are supplied and warranted by their manufacturer. High-performance tires are designed for optimum performance
and handling in warm climates. They are not suitable for cold, snowy, or icy weather conditions. If you drive under those
circumstances, you should equip your vehicle with all-season or winter tires, which offer better traction under those
conditions. We suggest you use the recommended winter or all-season tire specified for your car or its equivalent. These
high-performance tires also have a lower aspect ratio that aids performance and handling; however, in order to avoid
tire, rim, or vehicle damage, it is important that the inflation pressure be regularly checked and maintained at optimum
levels. Please also remember in making your selection that, while these tires deliver responsive handling, they may ride
less comfortably and make more noise than other choices. Finally, these tires may wear more quickly than other choices.
