Tires and wheels

An arrow on the side wall indicates the
intended direction of rotation (spinning)
of the tire which means the wheel must
be mounted in the direction of rotation.
If a tire does not have an arrow on the
side wall indicating the direction of rota-
tion, the wheel can be mounted either
way.
The following labels on the vehicle show
how much weight it may properly carry.
USA only - vehicles with a gross
weight capacity less than 10,000 lbs
(4536 kg)
Direction of rotation
i
The Tire Identification Number (TIN)
must always be visible on the out-
board side of the tire.
!CAUTION
Spare wheels may be mounted
against the direction of rotation
(spinning) even with a unidirectional
tire for temporary use only until the
regular drive wheel has been re-
paired or replaced. Always observe
and follow applicable temporary use
restrictions and speed limitations in-
dicated on the spare wheel.
Have a spare wheel that was mount-
ed against the direction of rotation
replaced with a regular road wheel as
soon as possible.
