Tires, Wheels and Loading
MaximumLoadedTrailerWeight – is the highest possible weight of a
fully loaded trailer the vehicle can tow. It assumes a vehicle with only
mandatory options, no cargo (internal or external), a tongue load of
10–15%
(conventional trailer) or king pin weight of 15–25% (fifth wheel
trailer), and driver only (150 lb. [68 kg]).Consultyourdealership(or

moredetailedinformation.
Do not exceed the GVWR or the GAWR specified on the
certification label.
Do not use replacement tires with lower load carrying capacities
than the originals because they may lower the vehicle’s GVWR
and GAWR limitations. Replacement tires with a higher limit than the
originals do not increase the GVWR and GAWR limitations.
Exceeding any vehicle weight rating limitation could result in
serious damage to the vehicle and/or personal injury.
Stepsfordeterminingthecorrectloadlimit:
1.
Locate the statement “The combined weight of occupants and cargo
should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs.” on your vehicle’s placard.
2.
Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that will
be riding in your vehicle.
3.
Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX
kg or XXX lbs.
4.
The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage
load capacity. For example, if the “XXX” amount equals 1,400 lbs. and
there will be five 150 lb. passengers in your vehicle, the amount of
available cargo and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs. (1400–750 (5 x 150)
=
650 lb.). In metric units (635–340 (5 x 68) = 295 kg.)
5.
the vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the available cargo and
luggage load capacity calculated in Step 4.
Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on
6.
transferred to your vehicle. Consult this manual to determine how this
reduces the available cargo and luggage load capacity of your vehicle.
If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer will be
