Original Equipment Key: Government UTQG Ratings do not apply to light truck-sized tires. 1. The dimensions shown are average tire design values for tires measured on specified measuring rim widths. Some tires may vary from this value by +/- 3% of the section height (affecting overall diameter) and +/- 4% of the section width. 2. Section width varies approximately 0.2″ (5mm) for every 0.5″ change in rim width. DANGER: Never mount a 16″ diameter tire on a 16.5″ rim. DANGER: Never mount a 17″ diameter tire on a 17.5″ rim. |
Inflation pressure increase must not exceed the maximum pressure branded on the tire sidewall.
When a customer requests a replacement tire with a lower speed rating than the original equipment tire, you must clearly communicate to him or her that the handling of the vehicle may be different and that its maximum speed capability is limited to that of the lowest speedrated For high-speed driving, additional inflation pressure and possibly reduced tire loading and/or upsizing is required. In the absence of specific recommendations by the vehicle manufacturer, use the following guidelines based on those in the European Tyre and Rim Technical Organization Standards Manual.
