Your vehicle is equipped with high
performance, all-terrain tires
designed to optimize handling,
steering and braking to provide the
performance you expect in a Ford
Performance vehicle. These tires
are optimized for both on and
off-road performance, and their
ride, noise and wear
characteristics are different from
other tires. Also, because of their
aggressive tread profile, it is
important that you maintain your
tires properly.
•
Always maintain your tire
pressures according to the tire
information placard located on
the driver’s door B-pillar, using
an accurate gauge. Remember
to be prepared to re-inflate
your tires before returning to
the road. If a tire filling station
is not available, remember to
prepare a supplemental means
to inflate the tires, such as a
portable compressor.
•
In cold temperature, check the
tire pressure after the vehicle
has been parked for more than
three hours. Do not reduce
pressure of warm tires.
•
Check your tire pressure often
to maintain it properly. Tire
pressure can diminish over time
and fluctuate with
temperature.
•
Do not overload your vehicle.
Maximum vehicle and axle
weights are listed on the tire
information placard.
•
Extra caution should be taken
when operating the vehicle
near its maximum load,
including assuring proper tire
pressure and reducing speeds.
•
In the event that you encounter
an abnormally harsh impact,
inspect your tires for damage.
•
Inspect your tires for damage
on a regular basis. Replace a
damaged tire immediately.
•
The original equipment tires on
your vehicle are not designed
to be used with snow chains. If
you operate your vehicle with
snow chains, use a smaller tire
and wheel combination as
recommended in your owner's
manual.
•
Proper suspension alignment
is critical for maximum
performance and optimal tire
wear. If you notice uneven tire
wear, have your alignment
checked.
Tire Rotation
Because your vehicle’s tires
perform different jobs, they often
wear differently. To make sure
your tires wear evenly and last
longer, have them rotated.
Note:
Front tires are shown on the
left side of the diagram.
