WARNING
Match tires, tubes, rim strips or seals, air valves and caps to the correct wheel. Contact a LiveWire dealer. Mismatching can lead to tire damage, allow tire slippage on the wheel or cause tire failure, which could result in death or serious injury. (12126c)
WARNING
This vehicle's front and rear tires are not the same. Interchanging front and rear tires can cause tire failure, which could result in death or serious injury. (12128b)
Tire Pressure
WARNING
Be sure tires are properly inflated, balanced, undamaged, and have adequate tread. Inspect your tires regularly and see a LiveWire dealer for replacements. Riding with excessively worn, unbalanced, improperly inflated, overloaded or damaged tires can lead to tire failure and adversely affect stability and handling, which could result in death or serious injury. (12123b)
WARNING
LiveWire recommends the use of its specified tires. LiveWire vehicles are not designed for operation with non-specified tires, including snow, moped and other special-use tires. Use of non-specified tires can adversely affect stability, handling or braking and lead to loss of vehicle control, which could result in death or serious injury. (12127d)
1. Check tire pressures when tires are cold. Compare with specifications. Refer to Table 1.
NOTE
LiveWire does not perform any testing with only nitrogen in tires. LiveWire neither recommends nor discourages the use of pure nitrogen to inflate tires.
Tread
WARNING
Replace tire immediately with a LiveWire specified tire when wear bars become visible or only 1 mm (1/32 in) tread depth remains. Riding with a worn tire could result in death or serious injury. (12133c)
1. Inspect each tire for punctures, cuts and breaks.
2. See Figure 1. Inspect each tire for wear. Replace tires before they reach the tread wear indicators.
