TIREINFORMATION&SAFETY
TireIntroduction
YourtiresaretheonlypartoftheRVthathasdirectcontactwiththeroad.Tiresdirectlyaffect
thehandling,brakingandsafetyofyourRV.Tiresmusthavecorrectairpressure,treaddepth
andbalance.
Checkyourtiresregularly,thisiscrucialtoyoursafety.Ideally,tiresshouldbeinspected
monthly.Ifyoudriveoverpotholes,debrisorliveinacoldclimateorevenregularlypullyour
RV,amorefrequentinspectionissuggested.Themoreoftenyouinspect,theeasieritisto
catchsmallproblemsandgetthemfixedbeforeitbecomesamoreexpensiveandpotentially
time‐consumingproblem.
Lookforthisduringinspection:
OverInflation–Toomuchaircausingthetiresmiddlesectiontocontacttheroad.This
willcreatewearinthecenterofthetire.
UnderInflation–Toolittleairpressurecausestheouteredgestocontacttheroad.This
willcreatewearontheoutsideedgesofthetiretread.
TreadWearononeEdgeoftheTire–Thistypicallyindicatesthatsomethingisoutof
alignment.
ErraticTreadWear–Oftencalledcuppingandcanmeanthewheelisoutofbalanceor
anissuewithsuspensioncomponents.
ALWAYSKEEPTIRESPROPERLYINFLATED.NOTDOINGSOCANRESULTINTIREFAILURETHAT
COULDRESULTINANACCIDENT.
Federallawrequirestiremanufacturerstoplacestandardizedinformationonthesidewallofall
tires.ThisinformationidentifiescharacteristicsofthetireandprovidesatireIDnumberfor
safetystandardcertificationandincaseofarecall.
DOTTireIdentificationNumber
Thisbeginswiththeletters“DOT”andindicatethetiremeetsallfederalstandards.The
followingtwodigitsaretheplantcodewherethetirewasmanufactured.Thelastfour
numbersrepresenttheweekandyearthetirewasbuilt.Theothernumbershave
interchangeablemeaningsthatareusedatthetiremanufacturersdiscretion.This#is
alsoimportantintheeventofatirerecallandusedforthatpurpose.
