Tire Identification Information
To maintain the load capacity of your motorhome, it is vitally important to only replace
worn or damaged tires with tires with ratings equal to or higher than what was originally
equipped on your vehicle. e illustration, located on the next page, describes important tire
information that is embossed on every tire by the manufacturer.
e Load Index may be indicated with two numbers separated with a forward slash. e rst
number is the load index of the tire congured as a single tire on a single wheel. e second
number indicates the load index of the tire as a dual-wheel conguration. Multiplying the second
number by 2 will give you the total Load Index for the dual wheel conguration.
e load index per tire congured as dual wheel is less than a single tire to provide a margin of
safety for the load-carrying capacity of the tire in the event that one of the dual tires is punctured or
otherwise fails.
NOTE: The tires supplied on your Class C
motorhome carry a "Light Truck" rating.
