Avon Tire Mixing

Tire mixing can be dangerous.

Most passenger tires today are radial tires. For best performance, we recommend the same size & type of tire be used on all four wheel positions unless the vehicle manufacturer specified different sizes, front & rear, as original equipment. Check the vehicle placard. If only two radials are mounted with two non-radials, the radials should be mounted on the rear. If tires of different types are mixed on a vehicle in any configuration, they should not be used for long periods & speeds should be kept to a minimum.

Mixing or matching of tires on four-wheel drive vehicles requires special precautions. Always check vehicle manufacturers' manual for their recommendations.
