Using Winter Tires - Ford SHELBY GT350 MUSTANG Supplement Manual

• Extra caution should be taken when
operating the vehicle near its maximum
load, including assuring proper tire
pressure and reducing speeds.
• Extra caution should be taken when
operating on rough roads to avoid
impacts that could cause tire damage.
• In the event that you encounter an
abnormally harsh impact, inspect your
tires for damage.
• Inspect your tires for damage on a
regular basis. If a tire is damaged,
replace it immediately.
• Proper suspension alignment is critical
for maximum performance and
optimal tire wear. If you notice uneven
tire wear, have your alignment checked.
• Rotate tires as recommended in the
tire rotation information.
• When replacing tires, the only way to
maintain original performance is to use
the original equipment tire. If a different
tire is used, it should be the same size,
speed rating and load rating and be
replaced as a set of four. Never mix tire
brands.
Note: Do not use tire chains on your vehicle.
The use of any type of tire chain on these
tires may damage your vehicle.

USING WINTER TIRES

The original equipment tires on your Ford
Performance vehicle are designed for
maximum performance in dry and wet
summer conditions. They are not designed
for winter use on ice or snow and cannot
be used with tire chains. If you will be
operating your vehicle in these conditions,
winter or all-season tires must be used.
