* Extra Load (Reinforced) Tire. This tire requires more air pressure to carry the same load as the same size in a standard load construction.
See the Reinforced Tire Specification Chart for the correct air pressure and carrying capacity of this tire.
SAFETY WARNING - SUMITOMO TIRE DOES NOT RECOMMEND ANY PLUS FITMENT THAT HAS A LOWER LOAD INDEX
THAN THE ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT TIRES. FAILURE TO FOLLOW PUBLISHED LOAD AND INFLATION SPECIFICATIONS IS
VERY DANGEROUS.

TECHNICAL DATA
Plus Sizing Guidelines
When considering a plus size application for a vehicle,
parameters include the Original Equipment Tire Size,
Speed Rating, Load Capability, Inflation Pressures, Outside
Diameter (Overall Tire Diameter), and Revolutions Per Mile, as
well as the space limitations of the vehicle wheel well.
The plus size changeover may be for looks or for performance
enhancements. In either case, lower profile tires which have
wider section widths, as well as higher performance tires,
normally will increase steering response and overall
cornering grip since the tire footprint shape (contact patch)
is usually wider and shorter than the Original Equipment
tire’s contact patch. To ensure proper vehicle operation, the
following guidelines may be considered in relation to the
original equipment tire and wheel package:
OVERALL DIAMETER - Within 2% of the original equipment
fitment; optimal is within 1% and usually the shorter is
better for stability, turning, acceleration, and braking.
LOAD AND INFLATION - Ensure the load carrying capacity
for the vehicle is not reduced with the new tires and wheels.
Calculate the new minimum inflation pressure to maintain
the load equal to or greater than the Original Equipment
tire and inform the consumer of the adjusted minimum
inflation pressures.
SPEED RATING - Using equal or higher speed rated tires
ensures that durability standards and performance
characteristics are not diminished.
RIM WIDTH AND OFFSET - Ensure the rim width is within
the rim range for the selected tire size. Also maintain the
offset of the original equipment tire and wheel package.
Tire and Wheel Weight - The combined weight of the new
tire and wheel package should be near the Original
Equipment weight. Increased weight affects the shocks,
springs and brakes, as well as other suspension components.
TIRE AND WHEEL WEIGHT - The combined weight of the
new tire and wheel package should be near the Original
Equipment weight. Increased weight affects the shocks,
springs and brakes, as well as other suspension components.
SAFETY WARNING - SUMITOMO TIRE DOES NOT RECOMMEND ANY
PLUS FITMENT THAT HAS A LOWER LOAD INDEX THAN THE ORIGINAL
EQUIPMENT TIRES. FAILURE TO FOLLOW PUBLISHED LOAD AND
INFLATION SPECIFICATIONS IS VERY DANGEROUS.
NOTE: Low profile Sport Truck /SUV tires are sensitive to
21
cracking when under-inflated or overloaded due to the low
sidewall height and relatively stiffer sidewalls. During use, an
over-flexed tire will often start cracking on the outer sidewall
early in the tire life. Sumitomo Tire recommends you do not
sell a ‘plus’ fitment size that has a lower load index than the
original equipment tire. Any tires showing evidence of underinflation, overloading, or are of inadequate load carrying
capacity for the tires replaced will not qualify for warranty
coverage. Shoulder wear and/or several lines (wrinkles) on
the middle inner liner are common indications of under-inflation or overloading.
Clearance
Since Plus Sized Tires and Wheels are usually wider than
original, consideration must be given to wheel well space
and any potential interference with suspension, chassis,
or bodywork. The new tire and wheel package must have
ample clearance to avoid the possibility of contacting another
component of the vehicle through turns, dips, and bumps.
Tire deflection, lock-to-lock steering, jounce, and rebound
all must be considered.
Brakes
Concern for increased weight of the wheel and tire package
must focus on the performance range of the braking system.
As the rim diameter increases and the tire widths increase,
the weight is concentrated farther out on the lever arm in a
rotational mass, which increases the stress on the brakes (or
decreases their effectiveness). Also of concern is the overall
weight of the tire and wheel and the effect on the braking
system. Consideration must be given to upgrading the
braking system to maintain braking capability within
operational limits.
Electronics
Since the ABS, ECS, engine management systems,
speedometer, odometer, transmission shift points, speed
control system, and inflation warning systems use information
based on the revolutions per mile of the tire, attention must
be given to maintaining a tire RPM close to the original design.
Staying within 1% is optimal. Vehicle dealers should be contacted to reset the electronic codes for affected electronics.
Of special concern is any tire inflation warning system that
may need recalibrating after a Plus Application. Air pressure
is critical for optimum tire performance and tire safety.
Clearance for the monitors within the tire cavity may also
be of concern. As the air cavity reduces in height, the
clearance to the monitors may be reduced and therefore
may be more vulnerable to road impact damage, as well as
damage during tire installation. Location (distance from the
hub) may or may not affect the monitors’ performance.
Contact the vehicle manufacturer for clarification.
Alignment
Since the shape of the tire footprint has been altered (normally shorter and wider than OE) there may be a need to modify
or restrict the range of the static wheel alignment within the
factory specifications. When plus sizing, be aware that the
new tire’s footprint shape may require an alignment
arrangement which minimizes scrub and/or camber thrust.
LIMITED WARRANTY
SUMITOMO Tire Limited Warranty
This limited warranty applies to SUMITOMO brand steel belted radial
passenger car and light truck/SUV tires bearing the complete description
and serial number as required by the DOT. This warranty applies only to
tires purchased after October 1, 2015. Tires purchased before that date are
subject to previous published warranties.
2. What is Warranted and For How Long.
This warranty is effective only for tires for which claims are made
within six years of the date of production, based on the production
date indicated by the tire DOT serial number, or within five years of
retail purchase, as indicated by an original copy of the consumer
invoice, whichever is longer.
A. Material and Workmanship Warranty. Every SUMITOMO brand
radial tire is warranted against defects in workmanship and materials
for the life of the original useable tread. The original useable tread is
defined as the total original tread depth less 2/32”. Tires with 2/32”
or less remaining tread depth in any groove are considered worn out
by the U.S. Department of Transportation. Tires adjusted under the
terms of this warranty will be replaced at the current retail price less
the percentage of the original useable tread remaining on the tire.
Exceptions:
A SUMITOMO tire that becomes unserviceable due to a defect in
workmanship or materials within the first 2/32” of tread wear will
be replaced free of charge with a comparable SUMITOMO tire. Tire
uniformity claims will be accepted for adjustment only during the first
1/32” of the original tread depth. Such tires will be replaced free of
charge with a comparable SUMITOMO tire. A set of four (4) tires from
the same vehicle will not be accepted for out-of-round or out-of-balance
claims unless the non-uniformity of all tires is verified by the tire dealer.
Any HTR A/S P02, HTR ENHANCE LX/CX, HTR ZIII, HTR T4,
TOURING LS T/H/V, TOURING LX or ENCOUNTER HT that becomes
unserviceable due to a defect in workmanship and materials during
the life of the original useable tread will be replaced free of charge.
Any HTRZ or HTR SPORT HP tire that becomes unserviceable due
to a defect in workmanship or materials during the first 50% of
the original useable tread will be replaced free of charge. During
the second 50% of the original useable tread, such tires will be
replaced on a pro rated basis if removed from service only due to
workmanship related defects.
Any labor, balancing or disposal charges related to the
replacement of a tire under the terms of this warranty are the tire
owner’s responsibility.
B. Mileage Warranty.
The following SUMITOMO tires are warranted to achieve mileage as
noted before becoming worn out at 2/32” remaining tread depth in
any groove:
PASSENGER
SUV/LIGHT TRUCK
HTR A/S P02
(H/V-rated) 65,000 miles

Example: If a Touring LST tire has reached a depth of 2/32” in any
groove, and the total mileage is 45,000 miles, a credit of 30% of the
current retail price will be applied to the purchase of another Touring
LST replacement tire. This mileage warranty is effective for normal
highway use when all the Owner’s Obligations listed in Section 4
are met. The mileage warranty is void for tires used in off-highway
service. It does not apply to any tires that cannot be rotated, such
as staggered fitments, or any tire described in Section 3. What is
Not Covered (Exclusions). A cash refund will not be given in lieu of
credit toward the purchase of a comparable SUMITOMO brand tire to
replace the worn tire.
C. Limited Road Hazard Free Repair or Replacement Warranty.
Any Sumitomo HTR A/S PO2, HTR ENHANCE LX/CX or ENCOUNTER HT
tire that becomes unserviceable within one (1) year of the purchase date
or within the first 2/32nds of an inch of treadwear (whichever occurs
first) due to a normal road hazard condition will be repaired or replaced
free of charge (subject to the General Conditions and Limitations). The
term “road hazard” does not include sidewall damage from scuffing
curbs.
