Inflation Pressure

Where Do I Find the Proper Inflation for My Tires?

The vehicle manufacturer specifies the correct inflation pressure for your original equipment tires (this also applies to aftermarket tires of the same size and type). You can find this information in several places:

• In your vehicle’s owner's manual

• Inside the glove box or center armrest compartment

• On the placard located on the edge of the driver’s or front passenger’s door frame

• On the vehicle’s fuel door

How Often Should I Check My Tire Inflation Pressure?

Check your tire pressure at least once a month and before long trips when your tires are cool (after the vehicle has been stopped for 3 hours and driven less than one mile).

• Use an accurate tire gauge to measure and maintain pressure at the level recommended by the manufacturer.

• Don’t forget to check the spare tire, whether standard size or temporary. (Temporary spares require higher pressure.)

⚠️ Remember: Underinflation is the most common cause of sudden air loss or unexpected tire failures.

Switching from Passenger to LT Tires

Some vehicles may have LT-metric (Light Truck) size tires installed, even though the vehicle was originally designed for P-metric (Passenger) tires.

For help determining the correct inflation pressure, please contact us with the following details:

• Year

• Make

• Model

• Trim level

• Original equipment tire size

• Replacement tire size

REMEMBER:

Proper inflation is the single most important aspect of tire care.
Underinflation is the #1 cause of tire failure.
