F.A.Qs

Can I put 2 different size tires on my car?

It depends on the vehicle, axle, tire sizes, and patterns, etc. Please visit your nearest GT Radial retailer for more information.

How do I know when I need to replace my tires?

The tire is considered worn out when any main groove is worn to 2/32nds or below, which is when the tire rib is at the same level as the wear bar. To inspect your tires, please take to a local KRT Radial retailer near you.

Why do I need to rotate my tires and how often should I have them rotated?

Tire rotation can be beneficial in several ways. When done at the recommended times, it can preserve balanced handling and traction and even out tire wear. Our Mileage warranties require tire rotation to keep the warranty valid. We recommend that tires be rotated every 3,000 to 5,000 miles even if they don’t show signs of wear. Tire rotation helps even out tire wear by allowing each tire to serve in as many of the vehicle’s wheel positions as possible. Remember, tire rotation can’t correct wear problems due to worn mechanical parts or incorrect inflation pressures.

Why is checking the air in my tires so important and how often should I check them?

You should check your air pressure once a month. However, to provide a greater level of safety, the tires should be viewed as you walk toward the vehicle every day. Underinflated or overinflated tires may result in poor handling, uneven tread wear, and increased fuel consumption.

Is there a break-in period for my new tires?

It is best to check the pressure in your tires when they are cold, that is after the vehicle has been parked for at least 3 hours or driven less than 1 mile. It is recommended to check your inflation pressure in the morning after the vehicle has been parked overnight.

Can I inflate my tires with nitrogen?

For better tire performance, it is recommended that new tires be driven at least 100 miles on paved, dry road surfaces to expel any release agents applied during the production process.

How long should my tires last?

There are numerous factors determining the length of service tires provide. Mileage will vary based upon the variety of road and climate conditions, driver habits, tire maintenance, tire construction, and tread compound
