Life Of Tire

The service life of a tire is dependent upon varying

factors including, but not limited to:

• Driving style
• Tire pressure
• Distance driven
• Performance tires, tires with a speed rating of V or

higher, and summer tires typically have a reduced

tread life. Rotation of these tires per the vehicle main-

tenance schedule is highly recommended.
