6 installation & ownership notes

These tires mount on standard OEM wheels that match the correct size and specifications for your vehicle. No special modifications are required.

TPMS transfer may be required if youre reusing your current sensorsconfirm with your installer during scheduling.

For even wear, plan on rotating about every 5,0007,500 miles (or at each oil change interval).

Expected tread life varies a lot by alignment, rotation, and driving habits, but most drivers should plan for a typical all-season ownership range.

This is not a severe-winter (3PMSF) rated tire, so if you regularly drive on packed snow/ice, a dedicated winter tire is the safer choice.
