speed of the wheels. When replacing
tires, use the same size originally
supplied with the vehicle. Tire size
and construction can affect wheel
speed and may cause the system to
work inconsistently.
If you ever need to replace a wheel,
make sure the wheel’s specifications
match those of the originalwheel
that came on your vehicle.
Replacement wheels are available at
your Honda dealer.
Tires marked ‘‘M S’’ or ‘‘All
Season’ on the sidewall have an all-
weather tread design suitable for
most winter driving conditions.
For the best performance in snowy
or icy conditions, you should install
snow tires or tire chains. They may
be required by local laws under
certain conditions.
If you mount snow tires on your
Honda, make sure they are radial
tires of the same size and load range
as original tires. Mount snow tires on
all four wheels. The traction
provided by snow tires on dry roads

Check with the tire dealer for
maximum speed recommendations.
Because your Honda has limited tire
clearance, mount only SAE Class ‘S’’
cable-type traction devicesonthe
front tires. Use tractiondevicesonly
when required by driving conditions
or local laws. Make sure they are the
correct size for your tires. Metal link-
type ‘chains’’ should not be used.
When installing cables, follow the
manufacturer’s instructions, and
mount them as tight as you can.
Make sure they are not contacting
the brake lines or suspension. Drive
slowly with them installed. If you
hear them cominginto contact with
the body or chassis, stop and
investigate. Remove them as soon as
you begin driving on cleared roads.

Traction devices that are the wrong
size or improperly installed can
damage your vehicle’s brake lines,
suspension, body, and wheels. Stop
driving if they are hitting any part of
the vehicle.
