1
A tire’s sidewall is marked  with a tire
size  designation. You  will need  this
information  when selecting  replace-
ment tires for  your car. The following
explains  what the  letters  and  num-
bers   in  the   tire   size  designation
mean.
Tire  traction can  be  reduced if  you
drive  on  worn   tires,  tires  that  are
improperly   inflated  or   on  slippery
road   surfaces.    Tires   should    be
replaced when tread wear  indicators
appear. To  reduce  the possibility  of
losing control,  slow  down whenever
there is rain, snow or ice on the road.
