              Comments about Winter Slalom KSI:

              After using two sets of Winter Slaloms with major satisfaction, one on my Subaru Forester (which lasted six seasons) and one for my Toyota Cressida, and because of availability where I buy tires, I recently switched to another MAJOR brand of winter tire which contains the name "ice" for the Subaru and discovered to my horror that they do not get any where near the mileage, and, they do not perform in icy conditions like the Winter Slalom, which caused my Subaru to completely loose traction on an icy patch of highway, slam into a guardrail and TOTAL it! I never, ever lost traction under any conditions with the Winter Slalom. Lovely way to learn a lesson about accepting second best, no matter the big-name identity. Do not use any other winter tire than Winter Slalom.

                          The sizes and/or speed ratings listed may vary slightly from the specified OE size shown on the vehicle placard. Your local Tire Dealer, as a trained professional, will provide the required assistance to install the tire listed by: 1. Notifying the owner if the replacement tires are different in speed rating than the OE tires and the maximum speed capability of the vehicle is limited to the lower speed rated tires. 2. Determine if any inflation pressure adjustments are necessary with the alternate listed size.

                          Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) is for a tire only (i.e., excluding services such as mounting, balancing and tire disposal) and is applicable for the contiguous United States. Actual pricing may vary based on retailer, region, tire size and other factors. Retailers are free to set individual prices. Please check with your local BFGoodrich tire dealer for pricing near you.

                          Government UTQG Ratings do not apply to winter tires.

                          BFGoodrich Winter Slalom® KSI meets RMA Severe Snow Marking requirement.

                          * Passenger sizes used in Light Truck/SUV applications have reduced load capacity. This will differ from the maximum load branded on the tire sidewall.

                          >> The sizes shown are average design values for tires measured on specified measuring rim widths. Some tires may vary from this value by +/-3% of the section height (affecting overall diameter), and +/-4% of the section width.
                          >> Section width varies approximately 0.2" (5mm) for every 0.5" change in rim width.
                          >> Tread patterns are often tuned to accomodate different tire widths. Tires for a particular dimension of a given tireline may vary in appearance from the tire shown in the photograph.

                          XL = Extra Load

                          WARNING: Serious or fatal injury may result from tire failure due to underinflation or overloading. To ensure correct air pressure and vehicle load, refer to vehicle owner's manual or tire information placard on the vehicle. Serious injury or death may result from explosion of tire/rim assembly due to improper mounting. Only tire professionals should mount tires and they should never inflate beyond 40 psi to seat the beads. Before mixing types of tires in any configuration on any vehicle, be sure to check the vehicle owner's manual for its recommendations.

                          DANGER: Never mount a 16" diameter tire on a 16.5" rim.

                          Inflation pressure increase must not exceed the maximum pressure branded on the tire sidewall. When a customer requests a replacement tire with a lower speed rating than the original equipment tire, you must clearly communicate to him or her that the handling of the vehicle may be different, and that its maximum speed capability is limited to that of the lowest speed-rated tire on the vehicle. Exceeding the lawful speed limit is neither recommended nor endorsed.

                          For high-speed driving, additional inflation pressure and possibly reduced tire loading and/or upsizing is required. In the absence of specific recommendations by the vehicle manufacturer, use the following guidelines based on those in the European Tyre and Rim Technical Organization Standards Manual.

                          For speeds over 160km/h (100 mph), load and inflation must be adjusted according to the table below.

                          S-Speed Rated Sizes:
                          Maximum Speed (mph) 100 106 112
                          Inflation Increase (psi) 0.0 1.0 2.0

                          • You need to know your vehicle's options to find out the original size of the tires for your vehicle because automobile manufacturers often use different wheel and tire sizes for different variations of a specific vehicle.If you do not know your vehicle's options, check one of these places:<br><br>1. The original sales invoice or window sticker when you bought the vehicle. <br>2. Your vehicle's Owner's Manual, which will sometimes identify your vehicle's options.<br>3. Look on the vehicle itself. Some vehicles have a decal or lettering that indicates the options located on the side or rear of the vehicle.

                          • Find the exact tire quickly using your tire size. Check your owner's manual or tire sidewall to find the required specifications.

                            Knowing your tire size can help save time at the tire retailer. It also enables you to make an informed tire purchase.<br><br>You can find your vehicle's original equipment tire size in one of the following places:<br>1. On the tire placard located on the driver's door jamb <br>2. In your owners manual<br>3. On glove compartment door<br> 4.

A typical European Metric tire is 185/70R14 88S <br><br>Light Truck-Metric: This system is used for light truck tires, and it mirrors the P-Metric system used for passenger tires. A typical Light Truck-Metric tire is LT245/75R16 120R. <br><br>Light Trucl High Flotation: This type is for light truck tires with lower sidewalls and wider treads that yield better traction on surfaces such as sand and soft soil found in watery, off-road situations.
