Vogue ® Tyre & Rubber Company Tyre Care & Maintenance

Custom Built® Radial Passenger Vehicle & SUV/Light Truck Tyres TYRE CARE UNDERINFLATION: Although not always apparent because of natural radial sidewall bulge, underinflation can lead to serious tyre damage. Underinflation allows the tyre sidewalls to flex much The easiest way to help ensure top mileage and performance more than normal, causing a great build-up of heat, the primary from your Vogue® Custom Built® Radials is to give them a simple, destroyer of tyres. Enough heat build-up combined with excess periodic inspection for proper inflation, tread wear, and the flexing, can cause deterioration of rubber compounds, separation presence of any damage. and decreased resistance to road hazards. Even slight under inflation causes unsafe and increased uneven wear to the INFLATION outside tread ribs as the tread bows inward under load. Gasoline mileage suffers also because of the increased rolling resistance of PROPER INFLATION: Inflation pressure should be checked an underinflated tyre. as often as possible. Because radial tyres bulge at the sidewalls NOTE: Refer to car owners manual for recommended tyre naturally, a visual inspection is not sufficient. The tyres must inflation to maintain. be checked with an accurate tyre inflation gauge. ALWAYS CHECK THE INFLATION PRESSURE WHEN THE TYRES ARE COLD. Driving even a mile builds up heat in the tyre and increases the pressure reading. Never bleed air from a tyre that has been running.

The pressure reading will be inaccurate, and you will most probably end up with an under inflated tyre. BUT NEVER INFLATE ABOVE THE MAXIMUM LISTED ON THE SIDEWALL OF THE TYRE. Also, never exceed the luggage and passenger capacity limit for your automobile.

10 CAUSES OF ABNORMAL TREAD WEAR ROAD SURFACES: Road surfaces affect tyre wear. A rough surfaced road will cause a tyre to wear more rapidly than a road with a very smooth surface. IMPROPER INFLATION & MECHANICAL CONDITION OF VEHICLES SQUEALING TYRES ARE A WARNING: When tyres squeal, they’re sliding or slipping. Some factors which induce the tyre squeal: underinflation, speed, EXAMPLES OF MISALIGNMENT AND WORN PARTS road surface, topography, temperature, and driving too fast on curves and around corners. The latter practice also causes abnormal wear in the shoulder area of the tyre.

OVERINFLATION

Overinflation reduces the cushion effect that pneumatic tyres enjoy. This causes the tyre to ride hard, resulting in less resistance to impact, damage to the cords and reduced protection to front end components involving steering and alignment. Overinflation also bulges the center of the tread outward, causing excessive wear to the middle of the tread. MECHANICAL CONDITION OF VEHICLE: When tyre wear or damage conditions result from a mechanical irregularity of the vehicle, INFLATION: It is normal that a tyre and wheel assembly lose a small amount such irregularity should be corrected. This is especially important with of air pressure over a period of time. This loss is normally not great enough to radial tyres where, because of their longer tread life, vehicle mechanical be visually noticeable. However, a loss of as little as 10% of the recommended problems significantly reduce the tyre tread wear potential. inflation pressure can cause uneven tread wear and a change in the handling characteristics of the vehicle. Inflation checks should be made periodically. ALIGNMENT: Alignment is a mechanical adjustment to the suspension, Unusual or hard driving conditions would be a reason to check inflation steering, and other related parts. On front wheel drive vehicles both the pressure more frequently. front and rear of the vehicle may require periodic alignment. The alignment on your car should be checked at each tyre rotation. In addition, you should visually check your tyres between rotations for any unusual or uneven wear of the tread.

CARELESS DRIVING PRACTICES: Fast cornering, “Jack rabbit” starts, sudden stops, excessive braking, riding edge of pavement, and high speeds all tend to wear away tread rubber rapidly.

11 TREADWEAR INSPECTION ROTATION OR REMOVAL (SEE FIG. 1)

Periodic inspection of tread wear patterns lets you head off tyre Tyres should be rotated in an “X” pattern at least every 5,000 miles trouble before it gets too serious, and in addition can also tell you of actual mileage. Front wheel drive vehicles carry a much heavier about the mechanical condition of your car. Even wear lets you load on the front tyres than on the rear tyres. They also do the know your tyres are balanced properly, and that your alignment and bulk of the work – steering, braking, accelerating. Under normal steering are correctly adjusted. Wear bars, which indicate the end conditions the front tyres on these vehicles will wear out at a faster of the safe and useful life of the tread pattern, are manufactured into rate than the rear tyres. The owner of a front wheel drive vehicle the tyre to appear when 2/32” of tread is left. At this point it is time should be particularly alert to the importance of frequent rotations to replace the tyre. In several states, in fact, driving with wear bars at low mileage intervals. showing level with the tread can make you subject to citation and fine. Watch for uneven wear patterns such as more tread gone on one side than the other, irregular ”cupping” and scuffing of the tread to one side. These indicate problems with tyre balance or shock Fig. 1 absorbers, front end or steering mechanism misalignment, or driving habits that could prove dangerous to your tyres and yourself as well.

IMMEDIATELY HAVE YOUR TYRES, SHOCK ABSORBERS, AND FRONT END CHECKED IF YOU SUSPECT UNEVEN TREAD WEAR.

12 WHEN TO REPLACE TYRES (SEE FIG. 2)

When removing radial tyres for any reason, several precautions Fig. 2 should be taken. Tyre position should be marked so that proper rotation can be maintained. The tyres should be kept away from direct sunlight, electrical motors and appliances which generate ozone which is harmful to the tyres. Always check pressure with an inflation gauge after remounting and inflate to recommended pressure. Tyres should be replaced if any of the following conditions exist: when wear bars are showing (2/32” of tread left); if wear has been severely uneven; when punctures not permanently repairable have been discovered; when cracks, cuts or snags deep enough to expose body cords are discovered on the sidewalls; or if a visual inspection reveals any bumps, bulges, knots, or separations of plies. A periodic inspection and an immediate professional check if suspension signs are found are your best assurances of getting the utmost life, service and economy from your Vogue® Custom Built® Radial Tyres.
