a leading tire manufacturer. If you ever have questions

see your GMC Warranty booklet for details.

Overinflated tires are more likely to be
cut, punctured or broken by a sudden

impact such as when you hit a pothole.
Keep tires at the recommended pressure.

Worn, old tires can cause accidents. If your

Inflation -- Tire Pressure
The Certification/Tire label, which is on the rear edge of
the driver's door, or on the incomplete vehicle document
in the cab, shows the correct inflation pressures for your
tires when they're cold. "Cold" means your vehicle has
been sitting for at least three hours or driven no more
than 1 mile (1.6 km).
You can operate some vehicles at reduced inflation
pressures only when you'll be carrying reduced loads. On
those vehicles, the minimum cold inflation pressures for a
typical reduced load are printed on the Improved Ride
Tire Pressure label located on the driver's door. Weigh the
vehicle to find the load on each tire and see the label for
the minimum cold inflation pressures for that load.
