Replacing tires can be complicated since there may be multiple tire options
to fit your vehicle. The tires originally supplied on your vehicle are referred
to as original equipment (OE) tires. Your vehicle manufacturer determines the
proper OE tire size, speed rating, load range, etc. For this reason you should
refer to your owner’s manual prior to replacing any tires.
There are times when acceptable options exist to change a tire size or type on
your vehicle. However, you should always refer to your owner’s manual & rely
on an authorized tire retailer for expert advice to ensure safe & legal
fitments for any tire choices.
