TIRE PRESSURE FOR HIGH SPEED
Where speed limits allow the vehicle to be driven at high speeds, correct tire inflation pressure is very important. For
speeds up to and including 120 km/h (75 MPH), tires must be inflated to the pressures shown on the tire placard.
For continuous speeds in excess of 120 km/h (75 MPH), tires must be inflated to the maximum pressure specified
on the tire sidewall.
Vehicles loaded to the maximum capacity should not be driven at continuous speeds above 120 km/h (75 MPH).
For emergency vehicles that are driven at speeds over 144 km/h (90 MPH), special high speed tires must be used.
Consult tire manufacturer for correct inflation pressure recommendations.

REPLACEMENT TIRES

WARNING: FAILURE TO EQUIP THE VEHICLE WITH TIRES HAVING ADEQUATE SPEED CAPABILITY CAN
RESULT IN SUDDEN TIRE FAILURE.
The original equipment tires provide a proper balance of many characteristics such as:
• Ride
• Noise
• Handling
• Durability
• Tread Life
• Traction
• Rolling Resistance
• Speed Capability
It is recommended that tires equivalent to the original equipment tires be used when replacement is needed.
Failure to use equivalent replacement tires may adversely affect the safety and handling of the vehicle.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TREAD WEAR INDICATORS
Tread wear indicators (3) are molded into the bottom
of the tread grooves.
Tire replacement is necessary when indicators appear
in two or more grooves or if localized balding occurs.
