Tire and Loading Information Label
Label Example
A vehicle specific Tire and Loading Information is
attached to the vehicle's center pillar (B-pillar). With the
driver's door open, you will find the label attached
below the door latch post. Vehicle's without a center
pillar, extended cab models, will have the Tire and
Loading Information label attached to the driver's side
extended cab door, above the door latch post. The
tire and loading information label shows the number of
occupant seating positions (A), and the maximum
vehicle capacity weight (B) in kilograms and pounds.
4-44
The Tire and Loading Information label also shows the
size of the original equipment tires (C) and the
recommended cold tire inflation pressures (D). For more
information on tires and inflation see Tires on page 5-54
and Inflation - Tire Pressure on page 5-60.
There is also important information on the
Certification/Tire label. It tells you the Gross Vehicle
Weight Rating (GVWR) and the Gross Axle Weight
Rating (GAWR) for the front and rear axles. See
"Certification/Tire Label" later in this section.
Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit
1. Locate the statement "The combined weight of
occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX
kg or XXX pounds" on your vehicle's placard.
2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and
passengers that will be riding in your vehicle.
3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver and
passengers from XXX kilograms or XXX pounds.
