Vehicle Maximum Load on the
Tire
: Load on an individual tire
due to curb weight, accessory
weight, occupant weight, and
cargo weight.
Vehicle Placard : A label
permanently attached to a
vehicle showing the vehicle
capacity weight and the
original equipment tire size
and recommended inflation
pressure. See “Tire and Loading
Information Label” under Vehicle
Load Limits on page 9‑13.
Tire Pressure
Tires need the correct amount
of air pressure to operate
effectively.
Notice: Neither tire
underinflation or overinflation
are good. Underinflated tires,
or tires that do not have
enough air, can result in:
. Tire overloading and
over-heating which could
lead to a blowout.
. Premature or
irregular wear.
. Poor handling.
. Reduced fuel economy.
Overinflated tires, or tires
that have too much air, can
result in:
. Unusual wear.
. Poor handling.
. Rough ride.
. Needless damage from
road hazards.
A vehicle-specific Tire and
Loading Information label
is attached to the vehicle.
This label shows the vehicle's
original equipment tires and the
correct inflation pressures for
the tires when they are cold.
The recommended cold tire
inflation pressure, shown on the
label, is the minimum amount of
air pressure needed to support
the vehicle's maximum load
carrying capacity.
