What should I be
aware of when
changing a tire?
Tires with unidirectional tread design
-
Tires with unidirectional tread design mu.st be
mounted with their tread pattern pointed the
right direction.
A un idirectional tire can be identified by ar-
rows on t he sidewall , which point in the direc-
t ion of the rota t ion. You must follow the
speci fied direction of rotation. This is necessa-
ry in order for these tires to develop t heir op -
timum characteristics regarding grip, road
noise, wear, and hydrop lan ing .
