Tires, Wheels and Loading
•
Extraload: A class of P-metric or Metric tires designed to carry a
heavier maximum load at 41 psi [43 psi (2.9 bar) for Metric tires].
Increasing the inflation pressure beyond this pressure will not increase
the tire’s load carrying capability.
•
•
•
kPa: Kilopascal, a metric unit of air pressure.
PSI: Pounds per square inch, a standard unit of air pressure.
Coldinflationpressure: 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 mile (1.6 km).
•
•
Recommendedinflationpressure: The cold inflation pressure found
on the tire label located on the B-Pillar or the edge of the driver’s
door.
B-pillar: The structural member at the side of the vehicle behind the
front door.
•

•
Beadareaofthetire: Area of the tire next to the rim.
Sidewallofthetire: Area between the bead area and the tread.
Treadareaofthetire: 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.
INSPECTING AND INFLATING YOUR TIRES
Safe operation of your vehicle requires that your tires are properly
inflated. Remember that a tire can lose up to half of its air pressure
without appearing flat.
Every day before you drive, check
your tires. If one looks lower than
the others, use a tire gauge to check
pressure of all tires and adjust if
required.
At least once a month and before
long trips, inspect each tire and
check the tire pressure with a tire
gauge (including spare, if equipped).
Inflate all tires to the inflation
pressure recommended by Ford
Motor Company.
