Limited Warranty on Materials and Workmanship During First 50% of Treadwear

Limited Warranty coverage is for 48 months from the date of purchase or 5 years from the manufacture date. Should a MAXXIS radial passenger/light truck tire be determined unserviceable by an authorized dealer/distributor due to a condition other than one listed in the “WHAT IS NOT COVERED” section of this booklet, the tire will be replaced with the same or comparable new MAXXIS radial passenger/light truck tire at no charge (other than labor and taxes) during the first 50% of treadwear. YOU ARE REQUIRED TO PAY ALL LABOR COSTS INCURRED IN MOUNTING AND BALANCING THE TIRE IN ADDITION TO ALL APPLICABLE TAXES. *Ride, balance, out of round tires and vibration complaints after the first 2/32nds of the treadwear will not be covered.

After First 50% of Treadwear

Limited Warranty coverage is for 48 months from the date of purchase or 5 years from the manufacture date. After the first 50% of treadwear, should a MAXXIS radial passenger/light truck tire be determined unserviceable by an authorized dealer/distributor due to a condition other than those listed in the “WHAT IS NOT COVERED” section of this booklet, you will receive a replacement pro rated credit toward the purchase of a comparable new MAXXIS tire equal to the percentage of useable tread remaining. Usable tread does not include the last 2/32nds of tread depth since tires worn beyond 2/32nds are considered unsafe by law in many states. YOU ARE REQUIRED TO PAY ALL LABOR COSTS INCURRED IN MOUNTING AND BALANCING THE TIRE IN ADDITION TO ALL APPLICABLE TAXES.

Limited Treadwear Warranty

Should the tread on your MAXXIS brand radial passenger/light truck tire (P-metric sizes only) wear out evenly to a depth of 2/32nds before the mileage for the specific tire model purchased (as indicated by this booklet), you will receive the same or comparable new MAXXIS brand radial passenger/light truck tire (Pmetric sizes only) at a replacement charge based upon actual mileage. The portion of the full retail price for the replacement tire that you pay as your replacement charge is based on the actual mileage received to the mileage specification. The following example illustrates calculation of the replacement charge: Using the MAXXIS MA-1 with a 60,000 mile, L.T.W., assume that at 50,000 miles the tread depth reaches 2/32nds. Your new tire charge is calculated as follows:
1. 50,000 ÷ 60,000 = 83.30%
2. 0.833 x Current suggested retail price of replacement tire = amount you are responsible for paying an authorized dealer/distributor.

YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING THE LABOR COSTS OF MOUNTING AND BALANCING IN ADDITION TO ALL APPLICABLE TAXES.
