Summer Tires
High Performance Summer Tires
This vehicle may come with 245/
40R18 (front) and 275/35R18 (rear)
high performance summer tires.
These tires have a special tread and
compound that are optimized for
maximum dry and wet road
performance. This special tread and
compound will have decreased
performance in cold climates, and
on ice and snow. We recommend
installing winter tires on the vehicle
if frequent driving at temperatures
below approximately 5°C (40°F) or
on ice or snow covered roads is
expected. See Winter Tires on
page 10-42.
{
Caution
High performance summer tires
have rubber compounds that lose
flexibility and may develop
surface cracks in the tread area
at temperatures below -7°C (20°
F). Always store high
performance summer tires
indoors and at temperatures
above -7°C (20°F) when not in
use. If the tires have been
subjected to -7°C (20°F) or less,
let them warm up in a heated
space to at least 5°C (40°F) for
24 hours or more before being
installed or driving a vehicle on
which they are installed. Do not
apply heat or blow heated air
