4.0 Kumho Ecsta V720 Tires
Your Viper ACR comes equipped with P295/25R19 and P355/30R19 Kumho ECSTA V720 low-profile competition racing tires that are DOT
approved for street use. Competition racing tires use a special profile, tread pattern and compound that provide more grip than normal road
tires. The tread wear indicators will appear earlier than typical tires indicating that the tires should be replaced, resulting in reduced tire life.
This special profile, tread pattern and compound will have decreased performance, including reduced traction, in cold climates, on wet roads,
in heavy rain and in standing water. We recommend the use of non-competition tires when driving at temperatures below approximately 50°F
(10°C), or on ice or snow covered roads, on wet roads, in heavy rain, and in standing water.
WARNING:
Competition racing tires have rubber compounds
that may develop surface cracks in the tread area at
temperatures below 20°F (-7°C ). Always store competition
racing tires indoors and at temperatures above 20°F (-7°C
) when not in use. If the tires have been subjected to 20°F
(-7°C ) or less, let them warm up in a heated space to at least
50°F (10°C) 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.
WARNING:
Driving with competition racing tires on snow, ice,
or cold road surfaces can cause loss of control or an accident.
Competition racing tires are summer season tires and are not
intended to be driven in snow, ice, or road surfaces below
32°F (0°C). Do not drive a vehicle with competition racing
tires in these conditions.
WARNING:
Low-profile tires are more susceptible to damage from
road hazards or impact than standard profile tires. Tire and/or
wheel assembly damage can occur when coming into contact
with road hazards like potholes, or sharp edged objects, or
when sliding into a curb. Keep tires set to the correct inflation
pressure and when possible, avoid contact with curbs, potholes,
and other road hazards. Failure to follow this warning may result
in tire failure, increasing the risk of crash, injury and/or death.
