MAINTENANCE INFORMATION
Information about tire quality
grades
New vehicles are fitted with tires
that have their Tire Quality Grade
(described below) molded into the
tire's sidewall. These Tire Quality
Grades are determined by
standards that the United States
Department of Transportation has
set.
Tire Quality Grades apply to new
pneumatic tires for use on
passenger cars. They do not apply
to deep tread, winter-type snow
tires, space-saver or temporary use
spare tires, tires with nominal rim
diameters of 25 to 30 cm (10 to 12
inches) or limited production tires
as defined in Title 49 Code of
Federal Regulation Part
575.104(c)(2).
U.S. Department of
Transportation – Tire quality

Transportation requires Ford to
