Maximum Pressure indicates the
maximum permissible cold tire infla-
tion pressure for this tire.
The TIN may be found on one or
both sides of the tire but the date
code may only be on one side. Look
for the TIN on the outboard side of
tires as mounted on the vehicle. If the
TIN is not found on the outboard side
then you will find it on the inboard
side of the tire.

The treadwear grade is a comparative rating
based on the wear rate of the tire when tested
under controlled conditions on a specified
government test course. For example, a tire
graded 150 would wear one and one-half
(1
1
/
2
) times as well on the government course
as a tire graded 100. The relative performance
of tires depends upon the actual conditions of
their use, however, and may depart signifi-
cantly from the norm due to variations in
driving habits, service practices and differ-
ences in road characteristics and climate.
The traction grades, from highest to lowest,
are AA, A, B and C. Those grades represent
the tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement as
measured under controlled conditions on
specified government test surfaces of asphalt
and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor
traction performance.
WARNING

Overloading of your tire is
dangerous. Overloading can
cause tire failure, affect vehi-
cle handling, and increase
your stopping distance. Use
tires of the recommended load
capacity for your vehicle.
Never overload them.
