TIRE RESERVE LOAD
This
table
lists
the tire size designations recommended by the manufacturer for use on the vehicles
to
which
it
applies,
with
the recommended inflation pressure for maximum
lo
ading and the
ti
re reserve load
~
percentage
for
each
of
the tires listed. The tjre reserve load percentage
indic
ated is met
or
exceeded by
V Ieach vehicle
to
which
the table applies.

*The difference, expressed as a percentage
of
tire load rating, between (a) the load rating
of
a tire at the
vehicle manufacturer's recommended inflation pressure at the maximum loaded vehicle weight and (b) the .
load imposed
upon
the tire by thevehicle at that
condition
.
WARNING. Failure
to
maintain the recommended tire
inflation
pressure
or
to
increase
tire
pressure as
recommended when operating at maximum loaded vehicle weight, or loading the vehicle beyond the
capacities specified on the tire placard affixed
to
the vehicle, may result in unsafe operating conditions due
to
premature tire failure, unfavorable handling characteristics, and excessive tire wear. The tire reserve
load percentage
is
a measure
of
tirecapacity,
not
of
vehiclecapacity. Loading beyond the specified vehicle
capacity may result In failure of thevehicle components.
ACCELERATION
AND
PASSING ABILITY
This figure indicates passing times and distances that can be met
or
exceeded by the
vehicles
to
which
it
applies
in
the situation diagrammed below. '
The
low
speed pass assumes an initial speed
of
20 MPH and a
limiting
speed
of
35 MPH.
The high speed pass assumes an initial speed
of
50 MPH and a
limiting
speed
of
80 MPH.
