PRECAUTIONS FOR HIGH SPEED

If the space within the tire bead of a
high-speed tire is narrower than the
width of its rim, it is hard to install
the tire to the rim and pump air into
the tire. Therefore, it is better to put
cardboard within the tire bead and
put tires in order. Cardboard
Tires deform easily if they are piled
horizontally. Avoid doing so.
As to the reused tires, the structure
of the rim remains the same. Install
the valve cap when the tire pressure
is lowered to 1/2 of the specified
pressure.
