CNTRL Cooling Fan Control Wheels and Tires Tire Pressure Tires need the correct amount of air
pressure to operate effectively.
Notice: Do not let anyone tell
you that under ‐ inflation or
over ‐ inflation is all right. It is
not. If your tires do not have
enough air (under ‐ inflation),
you can get the following: .
Tire overloading and
over-heating which could
lead to a blowout. .
Premature or
irregular wear. .
Poor handling. .
Reduced fuel economy. If your tires have too much air
(over ‐ inflation), you can get
the following: .
Unusual wear. .
Poor handling. .
Rough ride. .
Needless damage from
road hazards. A vehicle specific Tire and Loading
Information label is attached to your
vehicle. This label shows your
vehicle's original equipment tires
and the correct inflation pressures
for your tires when they are cold.
The recommended cold tire inflation
pressure, shown on the label, is the
minimum amount of air pressure
needed to support your vehicle's
maximum load carrying capacity.
