CHASSIS
The primary areas of concern are the tire size, inflation, and
operational information. The sidewall of the tire contains
detailed information about the construction, inflation, and
carrying capacity of the tire. Become familiar with this
information, and operate the vehicle within the capacity
parameters outlined.
Proper tire maintenance is critical to the safety,
operation, and durability of your coach. Failure to
follow and monitor tire pressure guidelines may result
in premature tire failure.
WARNING
!
The sidewall of the tire contains information that is important to know to
ensure proper use of the tire, as well as to maintain long life. Take the time to
become familiar with the size, load rating, and pressure information listed on
the sidewalls of the tires.
This tire size is 315 / 80 R 22.5. From this size, we can determine the physical
dimensions of the tire, as well as its basic construction. The tire size breaks
down like this:
•
The first number, “315”, is the section width of the tire in millimeters. The
section width is the measurement of the tire from the outside sidewall to
the inside sidewall.
•
The second number is the height of the sidewall, expressed as a
percentage of the section width. In this case, the number is “80”, so the
sidewall height accounts for 80 percent of the tire’s section width.
•
The “R” in the tire size indicates that this tire is “radial” in construction. The belts are wrapped around the tire in a
radial design, from bead to bead.
•
The final number is “22.5”, which is the rim size the tire was designed to fit. This tire fits a 22.5” diameter wheel.
Tire Size
The last four digits on tires manufactured after the year
2000 signify the week and year of manufacture.
The tire in the example picture was made during the 29th
week of 2017.
D.O.T. Code
This article provides information about the care and maintenance of your coach
tires, including examples of labels and tire pressure charts. To ensure your tires are
operating safely, regularly inspecting your tires and checking your tire pressure is
absolutely mandatory.
Tire pressures should be checked and adjusted before and after each trip. Always
check and adjust the pressures while the tires are cold. Never add or release
pressure from the tires when they are hot (after having driven a mile or more).
For safe operation and maximum weight carrying capacity, it is imperative that the tires be inflated to and maintained at the
listed tire pressures on the Federal ID Tag. This tag is a ffi xed to the interior wall just behind the driver’s seat in your coach.
Tire Care and Maintenance
Failure to follow proper inflation guidelines may
result in tire failure, which can cause loss of vehicle
control or accidents resulting in property damage,
bodily injury, or death.
WARNING
!
The tire pressure settings can change depending
on whether they are used in single or dual tire
situations.
