Tire Pressure
The Tire-Loading Information label
which is on the driver's door 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 a mile.
If your vehicle is equipped with
P245/50ZR16 tires and you'll be
driving at speeds higher than 100 mph
(160
km/h)
where it is legal, raise the
"cold" inflation pressure of each tire
to 35 psi (240 P a ) . When you end this
very high speed driving, reduce the
"cold" inflation pressures to those
listed on the Tire Loading Information
label.
NOTICE:
Don't let anyone tell you that underinflation overinflation
is all right. It's not.
If your tires don't have enough air (underinflation) you can get:
Too much flexing
