The tire identification number (TIN) is a group of numbers and letters that look like
the examples in the side column. TIN is located on the sidewall of the tire.
Cold Tire Pressure – The tire air pressure when the vehicle has been parked for at
least three hours or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km).
Load Rating – Means the maximum load that a tire is rated to carry for a given
inflation pressure.
Maximum Inflation Pressure – The maximum tire air pressure that the tire can
hold.
Maximum Load Rating – Means the load rating for a tire at the maximum
permissible inflation pressure for that tire.
Recommended Inflation Pressure – The cold tire inflation pressure recommended
by the manufacturer.
Treadwear Indicators (TWI) – Means the projections within the principal grooves
designed to give a visual indication of the degrees of wear of the tread.
Some models may be equipped with self sealing tires. Self sealing tires contain a
material inside that is designed to seal minor puncture damage to the tread. It is not
effective against major damage to the sidewall or tread. If you notice a puncture in
the tire, have the tire inspected by your Acura dealer.
