6-50 Rims and Wheels
Rims and wheels are stamped with a maximum load and
cold inflation rating. Be sure you don't exceed these limits.
Dual Tire Operation
When the vehicle is new, or whenever a wheel, wheel
bolt or wheel nut is replaced, check the wheel nut torque
as indicated:
If your vehicle has stud piloted or hub piloted wheels,
tighten the wheel stud nuts to the specified torque values
at 100 miles (160 km), 500 miles (800 km) and
1,000 miles (1 600 km) and then every 1,000 miles
(1 600 km) thereafter.
For proper torque, see ªWheel Nut Torqueº in the Index.
The outer tire on a dual wheel setup generally wears
faster than the inner tire. Your tires will wear more
evenly and last longer if you rotate the tires periodically.
If you're going to be doing a lot of driving on
high
-crown roads, you can reduce tire wear by adding
5 psi (35 kPa) to the tire pressure in the outer tires. Be
sure to return to the recommended pressures when no
longer driving under those conditions. See ªChanging a
Flat Tireº in the Index for more information.
CAUTION:
If you operate your vehicle with a tire that is
badly underinflated, the tire can overheat. An
overheated tire can lose air suddenly or catch
fire. You or others could be injured. Be sure
all tires (including the spare, if any) are
properly inflated.
