Tire Label (Vehicle Placard) tells you important information about tire size designed
for your vehicle, and the laden/unladen tire inflation pressures for the front & rear
tires. The label is pasted above the driver door trim.
Never overload your vehicle. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect vehicle
handling, and increase your stopping distance, resulting in an accident and/or
personal injury.
Improper inflated tires can adversely affect vehicle handling or can fail
unexpectedly, resulting in an accident and/or personal injury.
Under-inflation is the most common cause of tire failures and may result in
severe tire cracking, tread separation or “blowout”, with unexpected loss of
vehicle control and increased risk of injury. Under-inflation increases sidewall
