Storage of Tires - Long Term
A cool, dry garage with a sealed
cement oor is the preferred
method of storage. Tires stored
outside may prematurely age.
Prior to Storage:
 Thoroughly clean the tires.
 Unload the motorhome to
reduce weight on the tires.
 Ensure the surface is
reasonably level, rm,
clean and has good
drainage.
 Inate the tires to the
maximum ination
pressure as indicated on the
Federal Certication Label.
During Storage:
 Cover the tires to block
direct sunlight.
 Periodically ensure tires are
at proper pressure.
 Move the motorhome every
three months to prevent
cracking in bulge areas, as
well as at spotting from
prolonged sidewall strain
and tread deection.
Removal from Storage:
Before removing the motorhome
from long-term storage thoroughly
inspect each tire’s tread area and
air pressure. If the tires have
lost air during storage, inate
them to the correct pressure.
WHEEL MOUNTING
Hub Piloted Mounting:
 Flange nuts generate higher
clamping force. Always use
grade eight studs with hub
mount wheels.
 Before installing the
wheels, lubricate the hub
pilot pads with a drop of oil
to prevent galling. Do not
lubricate any other wheel
or hub surface.
 For a hub with intermittent
pilot pads, position a pad at
the twelve o’clock position
to center the wheel and
reduce run out.
CAUTION:
Loosen and tighten lug
nuts in sequence (see
illustration). Sequence
tighten to 50 ft. lbs.
first, then sequence
tighten to 450-500 ft. lbs.
Overtightening can cause
distortion.
WARNING:
Check lug nut torque after
50-100 miles after a wheel
has been removed.
WARNING:
Never use wheels or lug
nuts different than the
original equipment as this
could damage the wheel
or the mounting system.
Damage to the wheel or
mounting system could
cause a wheel to come off
while the motorhome is in
motion.
Front Wheels:
Slide the front wheel over
the studs. Use caution to avoid
damaging stud threads. Snug the
nuts in sequence. When all nuts
have been seated, tighten the nuts
to 450-500 ft. lbs. in sequence (as
in illustration).
Dual Rear Wheels:
Slide the inner dual wheel over
the studs. Use caution to avoid
damaging threads. Align the
hand-holds for valve access and
slide the outer dual wheel over the
studs, again using caution to avoid
damaging the stud threads.
For used nuts add two
drops of oil between
ange and hex.
