It is the air pressure that enables a tire to support the load, so proper inflation is critical. Since RVs can be
configured and loaded in many ways, air pressures must be determined from actual loads (determined by
weighing) and taken from the load and inflation tables provided by the tire manufacturer. These air
pressures may differ from those found on the certification label. However, they should never exceed the
tire limitation for load or air pressure. If you discover that your tires cannot support the actual weights, the
load will need to be lightened.
Tire Safety Tips
Preventing Tire Damage
•
Slow down if you have to go over a pothole or other object in the road.
•
Do not run over curbs or other foreign objects in the roadway, and try not to strike the curb
when parking.
Tire Safety Checklist
•
Check tire pressure regularly (at least once a month), including the spare.
•
Inspect tires for uneven wear patterns on the tread, cracks, foreign objects, or other signs of wear
or trauma.
•
Remove bits of glass and foreign objects wedged in the tread.
•
Make sure your tire valves have valve caps.
•
Check tire pressure before going on a long trip.
•
Do not overload your vehicle. Check the Tire Information and Loading Placard or User’s Manual
for the maximum recommended load for the vehicle.
