Inflation - Tire Pressure
Tires need the correct amount of air pressure to
operate effectively.
Notice: Do not let anyone tell you that
under-inflation or over-inflation is all right. It is
not. If your tires do not have enough air
(under-inflation), you can get the following:
•
Too much flexing
•
Too much heat
•
Tire overloading
•
Premature or irregular wear
•
Poor handling
•
Reduced fuel economy
If your tires have too much air (over-inflation),
you can get the following:
•
Unusual wear
•
Poor handling
•
Rough ride
•
Needless damage from road hazards
A vehicle specific Tire and Loading Information
label is attached to your vehicle. This label lists your
vehicle’s original equipment tires and shows the
correct inflation pressures for your 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 your
vehicle’s maximum load carrying capacity.
For additional information regarding how much
weight your vehicle can carry, and an example of
the tire and loading information label, see Loading
the Vehicle on page 4-20. How you load your
vehicle affects vehicle handling and ride comfort.
Never load your vehicle with more weight than it
was designed to carry.
When to Check
Check your tires once a month or more. Do not
forget to check the compact spare tire, if your
vehicle has one. The compact spare should be at
60 psi (420 kPa). For additional information
regarding the compact spare tire, see Compact
Spare Tire on page 5-105.
