MICHELIN TIRE LIMITED WARRANTY W A R R A N T Y Mounting Tire mounting can be dangerous and must be done by professionally trained persons using the proper tools and procedures as specified by the Rubber Manufacturers Association. Tires should be mounted on wheels of correct size and type that are in good, clean condition. Bent, chipped or rusted wheels may cause tire damage. The inside of the tire must be free from foreign material. Have your tire retailer check the wheels before mounting new tires. Mismatched tires and rims can explode during mounting. Also, mismatched tires and rims can result in tire failure on the road. If a tire is mounted on the wrong-sized rim, do not remount it on the proper rim; scrap it. It may be damaged internally because it is dangerously stretched, and could fail on the highway. Old valves may leak. When new tubeless tires are mounted, have new valves of the correct type installed. Tubeless tires must be mounted only on wheels designed for tubeless tires, i.e., wheels that have safety humps or ledges. Make sure all valves have suitable valve caps. Valve caps are the primary seal against air loss. Tires and wheels that are not balanced may cause steering difficulties, a bumpy ride and irregular tire wear. It is recommended that you have your tires and wheels balanced. 77 Y o u r W a r r a n t i e s i n D e t a i l
