ing, it may be more uncomfortable to
ride in and there  is more noise com-
pare with normal tires.
Radial-ply tires  have the  same load
carrying capacity, as bias-ply  or bias
belted tires of the same size, and use
the   same  recommended    inflation
pressure.  Mixing  of  radial-ply   tires
with  bias-ply or  bias  belted  tires  is
not   recommended.  Any   combina-
tions of radial-ply and bias-ply or bias
belted tires when  used on the  same
vehicle   will   seriously    deteriorate
vehicle handling. The best rule to fol-
low is: Identical radial-ply tires should
always be used as a set of  four.
CAUTION
CAUTION
It is not  easy to recognize the
tire   damage  with   your  own
eyes. But if there is the  slight-
est  hint of  tire  damage, even
though you cannot see the tire
damage  with  your own  eyes,
have   the    tire    checked   or
replaced    because    the   tire
damage  may  cause  air  leak-
age from the tire.
Because the sidewall of  the low
aspect ratio  tire is shorter  than
the normal, the wheel and tire of
the low aspect  ratio tire is easi-
er to be damaged. So, follow the
instructions below.
- When driving on  a rough road
or  off   road,  drive  cautiously
because tires and  wheels may
be damaged. And after driving,
inspect tires and wheels.
- When passing  over a pothole,
speed bump, manhole, or curb
stone, drive slowly  so that the
tires and  wheels are not  dam-
aged.
Longer  wearing  tires  can  be  more
susceptible to irregular tread  wear. It
is  very  important  to  follow  the  tire
rotation interval shown in this section
to achieve  the tread  life potential  of
these  tires.  Cuts  and  punctures  in
radial-ply tires  are repairable only  in
the tread  area,  because of  sidewall
flexing.  Consult your  tire  dealer  for
radial-ply tire repairs.
If the  tire is damaged by  driv-
ing on  a rough road, off  road,
pothole,   manhole,    or   curb
stone, it will not be covered by
the warranty.
•  You can find out the tire  infor-
mation on the tire sidewall.
