WARNING:
There is a danger in installing a tire of one rim diameter on a rim of a different rim diameter.
LOAD AND INFLATION
Always replace a tire with another tire of exactly the same bead diameter as the diameter of the
rim on which it will be mounted.
TABLES
For example, a 16" tire goes with a 16" rim. Never mount a 16" diameter tire on a 16.5"
diameter rim. While it is possible to pass a 16" diameter tire over the lip or flange of a 16.5"
diameter rim, it cannot be inflated enough to position itself against the rim flange. If an attempt
is made to seat the tire bead by inflating, the tire bead will break with explosive force and could
cause serious injury or death.
Rims of different diameters and tapers cannot be interchanged. The top diagram at right

The bottom diagram shows how the beads of a 16" tire will not seat on a 16.5" rim. The

Tires for light vehicles (most passenger cars and light trucks) are typically part of one of
the following groups:
PASSENGER TIRES
These groups of tires have numerous differences in their load and inflation characteris-
tics; some are adjusted for load capacity if they are applied to a light truck versus a pas-
senger car (see page 134, PASSENGER CAR TIRES APPLIED TO LIGHT TRUCKS).
Therefore it is necessary to carefully note the complete tire size designation, including

Load Index
The load index is a numerical code associated with the maximum load a tire can carry at
the speed indicated by the tire's speed symbol under certain specified service conditions.
PASSENGER TIRES
¾ Tires with the same load index, regardless of tire size, may carry the
same load, but not always, and they may require substantially different
inflation pressures.
For example, note the following standard load (SL) tires with the same load index:

Typical speed ratings for passenger car and light truck tires are listed in the table at the
bottom of the page. Note the following guidelines and exceptions:
· To avoid reducing the speed capability of the vehicle, replace a speed rated
tire only with another tire having at least the same speed rating. It is the "top

speed" of the "slowest" tire on the vehicle which limits the vehicle's top speed with-
out tire failure.
· If the OE tires are not speed rated carefully consider the type of vehicle and
service conditions expected by the consumer. Replacement tires may be speed
rated, if desired. Non-speed rated tires are usually for ordinary passenger or light
truck service and not for high speed driving.
INFORMATION
WARRANTY
· For winter tires, it is generally acceptable to apply a tire with a lower speed rating
than the OE tire for use in winter conditions; however, speed should be reduced
accordingly. All winter tires applied should be the same speed rating. Some vehi-
cles have specific recommendations regarding winter tires and their usage; always
check and follow the vehicle tire placard and/or the vehicle owner's manual.
GENERAL TECHNICAL
· Tires with different speed ratings may vary in ride, handling, and/or other per-
formance characteristics. Thus, care should be taken when mixing tires of different
speed ratings on the same vehicle. It is the "top speed" of the "slowest" tire on the
vehicle which limits the vehicle's top speed without tire failure.

These groups of tires have differences in their load and inflation characteristics, (includ-
ing a difference in their load capacity if they are applied to a light truck - see page 134,
PASSENGER CAR TIRES APPLIED TO LIGHT TRUCKS).
LIGHT TRUCK TIRES
· P-metric and Euro-metric passenger car tires have different load and infla-
tion standards that require careful observation. These differences also apply to
tires that have nearly the same size designations (i.e. P205/55R16 vs. 205/55R16).
· Euro-metric tires use load index tables to identify their load capacity at
various inflation pressures. Furthermore, these tires have different load index
tables for standard load and reinforced (extra load) versions. Carefully utilize the
correct table.

· P-metric (and LT-metric and High Flotation) tires do not use load index val-

Therefore, as with other vehicles, tires originally equipped to a light truck by a vehicle
manufacturer have been specially selected to meet the expected use, loading, and per-
formance parameters of that particular vehicle.
LIGHT TRUCK TIRES
In many cases, passenger car-sized tires (P-metric or Euro-metric) are applied to light
trucks as original equipment.
· Passenger car-sized tires applied to light trucks must have their load capacity, at all
inflation pressures, reduced by a service factor. OE passenger car-sized tires have
already had this reduction taken into account by the vehicle manufacturer.
INFORMATION
WARRANTY
To determine the load capacity of a passenger car tire when applied to a light truck vehicle, divide the
load capacity (at a specific inflation pressure) of the passenger car tire by 1.1 and round to the nearest
pound (or kilogram). Follow the same procedure for all inflation pressures.
· OE passenger car-sized tires may not be optimum for a particular light truck con-
sumer's driving needs. In such cases, it may be desirable to substitute an appropri-
ately sized LT-metric or High Flotation light truck tire, typically at a higher inflation
pressure. However:

Winter Tires (Including Studded Tires)
Winter driving presents special challenges for vehicle mobility. The use of winter tires -
while improving traction performance in snow and ice - requires special care with
regard to acceleration, braking, cornering, and speed. It is important to drive with care,
PASSENGER TIRES
not only on snow and ice, but on dry and wet roads as well.
In winter driving conditions, vehicle control - and safe operation - under braking and
cornering is especially dependent upon the rear tires. For this reason, winter tires are
best applied to all wheel positions, and a necessity if winter tires are applied to the
front axle of any vehicle.
INFORMATION
WARRANTY
· If winter tires are applied to the front axle of any vehicle, they must also
be installed on the rear. Do not apply winter tires to only the front axle - this
applies to all passenger cars and light trucks, including front wheel drive, 4x4 and
all-wheel drive vehicles.
· If winter tires are installed on the rear axle of any vehicle, it is recommended (but
GENERAL TECHNICAL
not required) that they be installed on the front axle.
INFORMATION
· All winter tires applied should be the same speed rating. It is generally acceptable
to apply winter tires with a lower speed rating than the OE tires for use in winter
conditions; however, speed should be reduced accordingly. It is the "top speed"

· Never place bias ply or bias belted tires on the rear axle if radial tires are on the
front axle, regardless of which axle is the drive axle, unless the vehicle has duals on
the rear.
· Studded winter tires follow the same recommendations above. In addition, only
new tires should be fitted with studs. Consult the Bridgestone or Firestone P/LT
Data Book for government regulations regarding the use of studded winter tires.

Plus Sizing
The concept of plus sizing is not new, but has expanded in the marketplace beyond
high performance sports cars. It is important to remember the following:
PASSENGER TIRES
· Plus sizing typically aids handling performance, but may result in a less comfortable
ride; the substitute tires - and their wheels - may also be more susceptible to damage
by impact with potholes, road hazards, and other objects such as curbs.
· Never select a tire with a smaller size, or with less load carrying capacity, than the
tire specified on the vehicle tire placard.
· Substitute tires should never be inflated below the pressure shown on the vehicle

· Never exceed the maximum load capacity and/or inflation pressure listed on the
sidewall of the tire.
· Never exceed the maximum load capacity and/or inflation pressure of the wheel.
· Never utilize an unapproved wheel or one that does not meet the approved rim
width range for the selected tire size.
GENERAL TECHNICAL
INFORMATION
· Overall diameter of the replacement tires should be within +/-3% of the OE tire fit-
ment overall diameter.
· Acceptable load capacity and/or overall tire diameter do not imply acceptable vehi-
