INSPECT YOUR TIRES, DO NOT DRIVE ON A
DAMAGED TIRE OR WHEEL
HAZARDS
Objects in the road, such as potholes, glass, metal, rocks, wood, debris
and the like, can damage a tire and should be safely avoided. Unavoidable
contact with such objects should prompt a thorough tire inspection.
Anytime you see any damage to your tires or wheels, replace with the
spare at once and immediately visit any BFGoodrich
®
tire retailer.
IMPACT DAMAGE
A tire impacted by a road hazard (curb, pothole, debris) may be damaged
but not have visible signs of damage on its surface. A tire damaged by an
impact may sustain a sudden failure a day, week, or even months later.
You may not recall hitting an object that damaged or injured your tires.
Air loss, unusual tire wear, localized wear or vibrations can also be signs
of internal tire damage.
If you suspect any damage to your tire or wheel from an
impact with a curb, pothole, debris on the road or any other
road hazard, or if you feel or hear any unusual vibration,
replace with a properly inflated spare at once and
immediately visit any qualified tire technician.
INSPECTION
When inspecting your tires, including the spare, check the air pressures. If
the pressure check indicates that one of your tires has lost pressure of two
pounds or more, look for signs of penetration, valve leakage or wheel
damage that may account for the air loss.
Always look for bulges, cracks, cuts, penetrations and
abnormal tire wear, particularly on the edges of the tire tread,
which may be caused by misalignment or underinflation. If
any such damage is found, the tire must be inspected by any
BFGoodrich
®
tire retailer at once. Use of a damaged tire could
result in tire destruction.
All tires will wear out faster when subjected to high speeds as well as hard
cornering, rapid starts, sudden stops, frequent driving on roads which are
in poor condition, and off road use. Roads with holes and rocks or other
objects can damage tires and cause misalignment of your vehicle. When
driving on such roads, drive carefully and slowly, and before driving again
at normal or highway speeds, examine your tires for any damage, such as
cuts, bulges, penetrations, unusual wear patterns, etc.
