Tires and ABS

Spare Tire
Using the compact spare supplied with the vehicle will not affect the operation of ABS. The EBCM software can compensate for this smaller tire. However, increased stopping distances may occur due to reduced tire tread depth on compact spare tires.

Replacement Tires
Tire size is important for proper performance of the ABS. Replacement tires should be the same size, load range, and construction as the original tires. Replace tires in axle sets and only with tires of the same Tire Performance Criteria (TPC) specification number. Use of any other tire size or type may seriously affect the ABS operation.
