FAQs
What does the 105Y rating mean?
The 105 represents the load index (up to 2039 lbs per tire), and Y represents the speed rating (up to 186 mph).
Is this an all-season tire?
The Kpatos FM601 is designed for general passenger vehicle use, but it is best suited for dry and light wet conditions rather than deep snow.
How often should I check the pressure on my FM601 tires?
It is recommended to check your tire pressure at least once a month or before any long-distance road trip.
Can I mix these with different tires on the same axle?
No, for safety and handling consistency, it is highly recommended to use the same tire model and tread depth on the same axle.
What is the recommended rotation schedule?
You should rotate your Kpatos FM601 tires every 5,000 to 7,000 miles to maximize their lifespan.
Troubleshooting
Vehicle pulling to one side
Check tire pressure in all tires to ensure they are even and consider getting a professional wheel alignment.
Excessive road vibration at highway speeds
Verify that the tires were balanced correctly during installation and inspect for any caught road debris in the tread.
Uneven tread wear
Ensure tires are being rotated at recommended intervals and check your suspension components for wear.
