Winter Tires
Consider installing winter tires on the vehicle if frequent driving on snow or ice covered roads is expected. All season tires provide good overall performance on most surfaces, but they may not offer the traction or the same level of performance as winter tires on snow or ice covered roads.
Winter tires, in general, are designed for increased traction on snow and ice covered roads. With winter tires, there may be decreased dry road traction, increased road noise, and shorter tread life. After changing to winter tires, be alert for changes in vehicle handling and braking.
See your dealer for details regarding winter tire availability and proper tire selection. Also, see Buying New Tires .
If using snow tires:
► Use tires of the same brand and tread type on all four wheel positions. ► Use only radial ply tires of the same size, load range, and speed rating as the original equipment tires.Winter tires with the same speed rating as the original equipment tires may not be available for H, V, W, Y, and ZR speed rated tires. If winter tires with a lower speed rating are chosen, never exceed the tire's maximum speed capability.
