Tire Pressure Inflation Guideline

Federal law requires that the specifi cations
for the tire's maximum load rating be molded
into the sidewall of the tire. The amount of air
pressure to use is dependent on the weight of
the motorhome when fully loaded. The tire
chart indicates the weights that can be properly
supported by varying air pressures. Decreasing
air pressure decreases load carrying capacity.
Always comply with the tire manufacturer's
recommended pressure infl ation guideline.
The actual weight of the motorhome can vary
signifi cantly depending on how it is loaded. For
optimum tire wear, ride and handling always
comply with the manufacturer guideline. A tire
infl ation chart listing proper infl ation pressure
for different loads can be found in this section.
The tires of the motorhome are infl ated to
pressure(s) appropriate for the actual weight on
each axle in the unloaded, shipped condition.
When the motorhome is loaded, check and
adjust the infl ation pressure on each tire as
needed.
Always infl ate tires to the pressure indicated
in the tire chart for the load carried by
the tire. DO NOT OVERINFLATE OR
UNDERINFLATE THE TIRES.
The Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) of
the axles listed on the federal certifi cation label
attached to the motorhome is the maximum
allowable loaded weight on an axle.
When the actual loaded weight of the
motorhome and the weight on each axle is
unknown, follow the recommended tire infl ation
pressure(s) listed on the federal certifi cation
label. When loading a motorhome never exceed
the motorhome's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR) or the GAWR for each axle.
Contact the tire manufacturer for further
information concerning proper tire pressure
infl ation and other tire issues.

Tire Charts

Understanding the Infl ation Table:
The tire size on the left margin of the table
determines single infl ation reading or dual
infl ation reading denoted with a D or S. Single
is for the front axle and tag axle (if equipped).
Dual is for the drive axle. On the following
chart, fi nd the corresponding psi at the top
columns to see the corresponding maximum
weight capacity for that psi.
Rated load capacities are listed for individual
tires in a Dual or Single position.

DRIVING & SAFETY — 2
NOTE:
Every load range has a maximum rating
as well as a minimum rating. DO NOT
exceed those ratings.
WARNING:
DO NOT exceed tire manufacturer's
maximum speed rating.
