2018 DODGE DURANGO SRT suspension

•When two new tires have been installed onto the rear axle positions,
they are to be kept on the rear but rotated from side to side. This is
recommended after installing two new tires to the rear position, or if
you discover significant tread depth differences between the front and
rear positions during rotation intervals.
REPLACING ONE TIRE
•Replacing a single tire on a vehicle can have an adverse effect on
suspension systems, gear ratios, transmission, and tire treadwear.
•If single tire replacement is unavoidable, it is recommended that the
single new tire be paired with the tire that has the deepest tread and
both be placed on the rear axle. Placing greater traction on the rear axle
on wet surfaces is necessary to prevent a possible oversteer condition
and loss of vehicle stability.
WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCING
•Proper wheel alignment and balance are very important consider-
ations for safety and getting the maximum mileage from your tires.
You need to check how your tires are wearing at least once a month.
•Your vehicle may be out of alignment if your tires are wearing
unevenly, such as when the inside shoulder of the tire is wearing faster
than the rest of the tread. This condition not only shortens the life of
your tires, it adversely affects the handling characteristics of your
vehicle, which could be dangerous. If your tires show irregular wear,
have your vehicle’s alignment checked immediately.

ROLLOVER HAZARD
Large-diameter tires and modified suspensions that increase ground
clearance will alter vehicle handling.

your vehicle handles. Always wear your seat belt.
Some modifications may be illegal in your state. Consult your

USEFUL TIRE INFORMATION
There is a lot of useful information molded into the sidewall of a tire. It
shows the name of the tire, its size, if it is tubeless or tube type, the
maximum load and maximum inflation, and important safety warnings.
The sidewall markings on passenger and light truck tires are slightly
different.

reduction factor is prescribed by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
(FMVSS) and is based on the expectation that passenger-type tires may
experience more severe loading and usage conditions when applied to
light trucks.) For example, 305/50R20 has a maximum load capacity of
3086 lbs. If this tire is fitted to a light truck, the actual allowable load for
the tire is 2805 lbs. (3086 lbs. divided by 1.1).
