TYRES
Glossary of Terms
Cold Tyre Inflation Pressure
Check and adjust tyre pressures when the tyres are cold, the car must have been
stationary for 3 hours or driven less than 1 mile.
Recommended Inflation Pressure
The cold tyre inflation pressure is stated on the tyre and loading placard, located
either on the driver’s side door tread plate or under the left bonnet on the inner
A-post panel.
Maximum Inflation Pressure
The maximum inflation pressure of the tyres must not exceed the cold tyre
inflation pressure.
Cold Tyre Inflation Pressure
Morgan recommend that the tyres should be inflated to 28psi/193kPa. This
information can also be found on the vehicles Tyre Placard Label located either
on the driver’s side door tread plate or under the left bonnet on the inner
A-post panel.
To measure and adjust the tyres remove the dust caps from the valves on
the wheels and connect the measuring/inflation device. Follow the instruction
supplied with the measuring/adjusting device to measure/adjust the tyre
pressures. When have finished remove the measuring/adjusting device and refit
the dust caps to the valve.
WARNING Tyres should be regularly inspected for any signs of damage, and
for any uneven tread wear. Uneven tread wear may indicate that the
suspension system may require attention from a Morgan Service Agent.
WARNING Take care when parking to avoid tyre contact with kerbs.
WARNING Contact with the kerb can cause internal damage to the tyre
that may not be visibly apparent. Damage may also be caused if the tyre
strikes potholes, rocks or other highway debris.
WARNING If the wheels or tyres have been damaged, have them replaced.
WARNING Tyres must be replaced when the legal tread depth limits are
approached.
WARNING Poorly maintained and improperly used tyres are dangerous
and may cause an accident resulting in serious injury or even death.
WARNING Tyres must not exceed their loading limits. Overloading of
tyres can cause blowouts resulting in accidents causing serious injury or
even death. See ‘Tyre Placard Label’.
WARNING Tyres must be inflated to the correct pressures. Over or
under inflated tyres can cause blowouts resulting in accidents causing
serious injury or even death. See ‘Tyre Placard Label’.
WARNING Tyres matching the correct manufacturers specification must
be used. Using incorrect tyres can affect the handling of the vehicle,
which can cause an accident resulting in serious injury or even death.
Tyre Care
Wear indicators are moulded into the bottom of the tread grooves at intervals
around the tyre, indicated by small pointers on the outer tread blocks. The tyres
should be replaced before being worn to the minimum legal tread depth. The
cold tyre pressures should be checked every week, or every 1,000 miles (1,700
km), whichever is the sooner, and corrections made as necessary. See ‘Wheels &
