WARNING! (Continued)

Never use a tire with a smaller load index or

capacity, other than what was originally equipped
on your vehicle. Using a tire with a smaller load
index could result in tire overloading and failure.
You could lose control and have a collision.

Failure to equip your vehicle with tires having

adequate speed capability can result in sudden tire
failure and loss of vehicle control.

CAUTION!

Replacing original tires with tires of a different size may
result in false speedometer and odometer readings.

TIRE CHAINS (TRACTION DEVICES)

Use of traction devices require sufficient tire-to-body clear-
ance. Follow these recommendations to guard against
damage.

• Traction device must be of proper size for the tire, as

recommended by the traction device manufacturer.

• Install on Front Tires Only.
• Due to limited clearance, P225/65R17 tire with a

Security Chain Company (SCC) Super Z6 low profile
traction device or equivalent is recommended.

WARNING!

Using tires of different size and type (M+S, Snow)
between front and rear axles can cause unpredictable
handling. You could lose control and have a collision.
