on a scale of 1 to 279, to indicate a
tire loading capacity.
Maximum Inflation Pressure:
The
maximum air pressure to which a
cold tire may be inflated. The maxi-
mum air pressure information is
specified on a tire side wall.
Maximum Load Rating:
The load-
ing capacity for a tire, which is inflat-
ed to the maximum.
Maximum Loaded Vehicle Weight:
The sum of curb weight; accessory
weight; vehicle capacity weight; and
production options weight.
Normal Occupant Weight:
The mul-
tiplication of the designated occu-
pant seat number by 150 pounds (68
kg).
Occupant Distribution:
Designated
seating positions.
Outward Facing Sidewall:
The side

contains the gas or fluid that sustains
the load.
Production Options Weight:
The
combined weight of installed regular
production options weighing over 5
lb.(2.3 kg) in excess of the standard
items which they replace, not previ-
ously considered in curb weight or
accessory weight, including heavy
duty brakes, ride levelers, roof rack,
heavy duty battery, and special trim.
Recommended Inflation Pressure:
Vehicle manufacturer's recommend-
ed pressure to inflate a tire. This is
specified on a tire placard.
Radial Ply Tire:
A pneumatic tire in
which the ply cords that extend to the
beads are laid at 90 degrees to the
centerline of the tread.
Rim:
A metal support for a tire and
upon which the tire beads are seat-
ed.
Sidewall:
The portion of a tire
between the tread and the bead.
Speed Rating:
An alphanumeric
code to indicate the maximum speed
to which a tire can operate.
Traction:
The friction between a tire
and a road surface. The amount of
grip provided.
Tread:
The contacting portion of a
tire with the road.
Treadwear Indicators:
This is a nar-
row band, sometimes called "wear
bars." This appears across the tread,
when only 2/32 inch of tread
remains.
UTQGS:
The Uniform Tire Quality
Grading Standards is the information
of traction, temperature and tread
abrasion. A rating is measured by a
tire manufacturer in accordance with
the government-specified testing
procedure. The rating information is
specified on the tire side wall.
