Note: Your vehicle may be

equipped with a dissimilar spare

wheel and tire assembly. A

dissimilar spare wheel and tire

assembly is defined as a spare
wheel and tire assembly that is
different in brand, size or
appearance from the road tires and
wheels. If you have a dissimilar
spare wheel and tire assembly it is
intended for temporary use only
and should not be used in a tire
rotation.

Note: After having your tires
rotated, inflation pressure must be

checked and adjusted to the

vehicle requirements.
Rotating your tires at the
recommended interval (as

indicated in the Scheduled

Maintenance chapter) will help

your tires wear more evenly,
providing better tire performance

and longer tire life.
Front-wheel drive and all-wheel

vehicles (front tires on the left side

All vehicles with directional tires

(front tires on the left side of the

E147237

Sometimes irregular tire wear can
be corrected by rotating the tires.

Summer Tires

Your Ford vehicle may be
equipped with summer tires to

provide superior performance on

wet and dry roads. Summer tires

do not have the Mud and Snow
(M+S or M/S) tire traction rating

on the tire side wall. Since

summer tires do not have the

same traction performance as

All-season or Snow tires, Ford
does not recommend using

summer tires when temperatures
drop to approximately 40°F (5°C)

or below (depending on tire wear

and environmental conditions) or

in snow and ice conditions. Like

any tire, summer tire performance

is affected by tire wear and
environmental conditions. If you
must drive in those conditions,
Ford recommends using Mud and
Snow (M+S, M/S), All-season or
Snow tires.
