Vehicle Care
on the vehicle when driving at temperatures
below approximately 10 °C (50 °F) or on ice
or snow covered roads.
Warning
Driving on wet roads, in heavy rain,
or through standing water with
competition oriented tires may cause
hydroplaning and loss of control. Use
extreme caution and drive slowly on wet
roads.
Warning
Driving with competition oriented tires on
snow, ice, or cold road surfaces can cause
loss of control or a crash. Competition
oriented tires are summer season tires
and are not intended to be driven on
snow, ice, or road surfaces below 10 °C
(50 °F). Do not drive a vehicle with
competition oriented tires in these
conditions.
Caution
Competition oriented tires have rubber
compounds that lose flexibility and may
develop surface cracks in the tread area
at temperatures below 7 °C (20 °F).
Always store competition oriented tires
indoors and at temperatures above 7 °C
(20 °F) when not in use. If the tires have
been subjected to 7 °C (20 °F) or less, let
them warm up in a heated space to at
least 10 °C (50 °F) for 24 hours or more
before being installed or driving a vehicle
on which they are installed. Do not apply
heat or blow heated air directly on the
tires. Always inspect tires before use.

Summer Tires

High Performance Summer Tires
ZL1, SS with the 1LE package, and LS/LT with
the 1LE package are equipped with high
performance summer tires. These tires have
a special tread and compound that are
optimized for maximum dry and wet road
performance. This special tread and
compound will have decreased performance
in cold climates, and on ice and snow. It is
recommended that winter tires be installed
on the vehicle if frequent driving at
temperatures below approximately 5 °C
(40 °F) or on ice or snow covered roads is
expected. See Winter Tires in the owner s
manual.
