SNOW TIRESSNOW TIRES
SNOW TIRESSNOW TIRES
SNOW TIRES
If you equip your car with snow tires, they
should be the same size and have the same
load capacity as the original tires. Snow tires
should be installed on all four wheels; other-
wise, poor handling may result.
Snow tires should carry 4 psi (28 kPa) more air
pressure than the pressure recommended for
the standard tires on the tire label on the driver's
door edge , or up to the maximum pressure
shown on the tire sidewall whichever is less.
Do not drive faster than 75 mph (120 km/h)
when your car is equipped with snow tires.

Tire chains, if necessary, should be installed on
the front wheels. Be sure that the chains are the
proper size and that they are installed in accor-
dance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
To minimize tire and chain wear, do not con-
tinue to use tire chains when they are no longer
needed.

SSA8050A
Tires should be rotated every 7,500 miles
(12,000 km). If you notice that tires are wearing
unevenly between rotations, have the car
checked by a Hyundai dealer so the cause may
be corrected.
After rotating, adjust the tire pressures and be
sure to check the wheel nut tightness.
