Nissan Sentra Owners Manual: Tire equipment
- SUMMER tires have a tread designed to
provide superior performance on dry pavement.
However, the performance of these tires will be substantially reduced in snowy and icy conditions. If you operate your vehicle on snowy or icy roads, NISSAN recommends the use of MUD & SNOW or ALL SEASON TIRES on all four wheels. Please consult a NISSAN dealer for the tire type, size, speed rating and availability information.
- For additional traction on icy roads, studded
tires may be used. However, some U.S.
states and Canadian provinces prohibit their use. Check local, state and provincial laws before installing studded tires.
Skid and traction capabilities of studded snow tires on wet or dry surfaces may be poorer than that of non-studded snow tires.
- Tire chains may be used. For details see “Tire chains” in the “Maintenance and do-ityourself” section of this manual.
