TIRES/WHEELS - SERVICE INFORMATION
Under-inflation will cause rapid shoulder wear (1), tire
flexing, and possible tire failure.
Over-inflation will cause rapid center wear (1) and loss
of the tire's ability to cushion shocks.
Improper inflation can cause:
• Uneven Wear Patterns
• Reduced Tread Life
• Reduced Fuel Economy
• Unsatisfactory Ride
• Vehicle Drift
For proper tire pressure specification refer to the Tire Inflation Pressure Chart provided with the vehicle's Owner's
Manual. A Certification Label on the driver's side door pillar provides the minimum tire and rim size for the vehicle.
The label also lists the cold inflation pressure for these tires at full load operation.
Tire pressures have been chosen to provide safe operation, vehicle stability, and a smooth ride. Tire pressure
should be checked cold once a month. Tire pressure decreases as the ambient temperature drops. Check tire pres-
sure frequently when ambient temperature varies widely.
Tire inflation pressures are cold inflation pressure. The vehicle must sit for at least 3 hours to obtain the correct cold
inflation pressure reading, or be driven less than one mile after sitting for 3 hours. Tire inflation pressures may
increase from 2 to 6 pounds per square inch (psi) during operation. Do not reduce this normal pressure build-up.
