may be prohibited unless local laws, restrictions, and regulations allow use of other

2 – Tire tread wear and lifetime results will vary. Tire lifespan is not covered under
ONYX’s standard warranty and will vary depending on type and areas of use. Below
are various factors that can cause abnormal wear: • Under-ination/over-loading
can cause tread distortion and irregular wear. More seriously they may result in a
sudden failure of the carcass due to excessive tire exing. • High- speed means rap-
id tread wear, especially due to harder acceleration and extra braking. • Tempera-
ture of riding surface – higher temperature causes faster wear • Rough surfaces
cause higher abrasion and shorter lifetime of a tire. • Mechanical irregularities such
as distorted wheels, incorrect brake adjustment, bad dumpers, excessive tolerance
in frame-wheel bearings can also cause severe wear. • Unbalanced rotating weight
(heavy spots on rim) can cause irregular tread wear.
