• Mențineți presiunea recomandată de producătorul vehiculului, nu presiunea maximă pe flancul anvelopei.

4.2 Rotația anvelopelor

Rotiți anvelopele la fiecare 5,000 până la 7,500 de mile sau conform recomandărilor producătorului vehiculului, pentru a promova o uzură uniformă și a maximiza durata de viață a benzii de rulare.

4.3 Tread Depth and Inspection

• Regularly inspect tires for signs of wear, cuts, punctures, or bulges.
