When replacing tires, use the same
size originally supplied with the
vehicle.
Using tires of a different size can
damage the related parts or make
them work irregularly.
䳜 It is permissible to add 3 psi to the
standard tire pressure specifica

tion if colder temperatures are
expected soon.
Tires typically loose 1 psi for
ev
ery 12 󳚛F temperature drop. If
extreme temperature variations
are expected, recheck your tire
pressure as necessary to keep
them properly inflated.
