Tires: Description and Operation
Tire
TIRE
The tires used on this vehicle are the Michelin Pilot SPORT II. These tires are designed and engineered for their specific use on this vehicle.
These tires have a non-directional tread pattern. There is, though, an inside and outside facing to the tread pattern for proper tire performance.
With proper care and driving habits, these tires will give excellent reliability, traction, skid resistance, and tread life. Driving habits will have more effect
on tire life than any other factor. Careful drivers will obtain, in most cases, much greater mileage than severe use or careless drivers. A few of the driving
habits which will shorten the life of any tire are:
-
Rapid acceleration
-
Severe application of brakes
-
High-speed driving
-
Taking turns at excessive speeds
-
Striking curbs and other obstacles
Tire type, size, load index and speed rating are encoded in the letters and numbers imprinted on the side wall of the tire. Refer to the Tire Identification
chart to decipher the code. For example purposes, the tire size P225/60 R 16 97 T is used in the chart. This vehicle uses two different size tires, front and
rear:
-
Front - 275/35 ZR 18
-
Rear - 345/30 ZR 19
