Glossary of Tire Terminology
•
Tire label: A label showing the
OE (Original Equipment) tire
sizes, recommended inflation
pressure and the maximum
weight the vehicle can carry.
• Tire Identification Number
(TIN): A number on the
sidewall of each tire providing
information about the tire
brand and manufacturing
plant, tire size and date of
manufacture. Also referred to
as DOT code.
• Inflation pressure: A measure
of the amount of air in a tire.
• Standard load:
A class of
P-metric or Metric tires
designed to carry a maximum
load at set pressure. For
example: for P-metric tires
35 psi (2.4 bar)
and for Metric
tires 36 psi (2.5 bar). Increasing
the inflation pressure beyond
this pressure will not increase
the tire capability.
• Extra load: A class of P-metric
or Metric tires designed to carry
a heavier maximum load at
42 psi (2.9 bar)
. Increasing the
inflation pressure beyond this
pressure will not increase the
tire ’s load carrying capability. •
bar
Metric unit of atmospheric
pressure.
• kPa:
Kilopascal, a metric unit
of air pressure.
• PSI:
Pounds per square inch, a
standard unit of air pressure.
• Cold tire pressure:
The tire
pressure when the vehicle has
been stationary and out of
direct sunlight for an hour or
more and prior to the vehicle
being driven for
1 mi (1.6 km).
• Recommended inflation
pressure:
The cold inflation
pressure found on the Safety
Compliance Certification Label
(affixed to either the door hinge
pillar, door-latch post, or the
door edge that meets the
door-latch post, next to the
driver seating position) or Tire
Label located on the B-Pillar or
the edge of the driver door.
• B-pillar:
The structural
member at the side of the
vehicle behind the front door.
• Bead area of the tire: Area of
the tire next to the rim.
• Sidewall of the tire:
Area
between the bead area and the
tread.
• Tread area of the tire:
Area of
the perimeter of the tire that
contacts the road when
mounted on the vehicle.
• Rim:
The metal support
(wheel) for a tire or a tire and
tube assembly upon which the
tire beads are seated.

15: Indicates the wheel or
rim diameter in inches. If
you change the wheel
size, you will have to
purchase new tires to
match the new wheel
diameter.
E
95:
Indicates the tire's
load index. It is an index
that relates to how much
weight a tire can carry.
You may find this
information in the Owner ’s
Guide. If not, contact a
local tire dealer.
F
H:
Indicates the tire's
speed rating. The speed
rating denotes the speed
at which a tire is designed
to be driven for extended
periods of time under a
G
standard condition of load
and inflation pressure.
The tires on your vehicle
may operate at different
conditions for load and
inflation pressure. These
speed ratings may need
to be adjusted for the
difference in conditions.
The ratings range from 81
mph (130 kph) to 186 mph
(299 kph). These ratings
are listed in the following
chart. United States of
America DOT Tire
Identification Number
(TIN):
This begins with
the letters DOT and
indicates that the tire
H
meets all federal
standards. The next two
numbers or letters are the
plant code designating
where it was
manufactured, the next
two are the tire size code
and the last four numbers
represent the week and
year the tire was built. For
example, the numbers 317
mean the 31st week of
1997. After 2000 the
numbers go to four digits.
For example, 2501 means
the 25th week of 2001.
The numbers in between
are identification codes
used for traceability. This
information is used to
contact customers if a tire
defect requires a recall.

Note:
Do not raise the spare wheel bracket
without a wheel attached. Damage to the
winch mechanism could occur.
Vehicle Jack WARNING: Do not work on your
vehicle when the jack is the only support
as your vehicle could slip off the jack.
Failure to follow this instruction could
result in personal injury or death. WARNING:
To help prevent your
vehicle from moving when changing a
wheel, shift the transmission into park
(P), set the parking brake and use an
appropriate block or wheel chock to
secure the wheel diagonally opposite to
the wheel being changed. For example,
when changing the front left wheel,
place an appropriate block or wheel
chock on the right rear wheel. WARNING:
Do not attempt to
change a tire on the side of the vehicle
close to moving traffic. Pull far enough
off the road to avoid the danger of being
hit when operating the jack or changing
the wheel. WARNING:
Always use the jack
provided as original equipment with your
vehicle. If using a jack other than the one
provided, make sure the jack capacity is
adequate for the vehicle weight,
including any vehicle cargo or
modifications. If you are unsure if the jack
capacity is adequate, contact the
authorized dealer. WARNING:
Switch off the running
boards before jacking or placing any
object under your vehicle. Never place
your hand between the extended running
board and your vehicle. A moving running
board may cause injury. Note:
Passengers should not remain in the
vehicle when the vehicle is being jacked.
Note: Vehicles with a Temporary Mobility
Kit do not have a vehicle jack or a lug
wrench.
Vehicle Jack Storage The jack, jack handle and wheel brace are
in a storage compartment in the front
right-hand side stepwell.
Note:
The vehicle jack is in the load space
area on vehicles with rear climate control.
