inal tires  and the  inflation  pressures
needed  to  obtain  the  gross  weight
capacity   of   your   vehicle.   This  is
called   the   GVWR  (Gross   Vehicle

to  a  weigh  station  and  weigh  your
vehicle.Your dealer can help you with
this. Be sure to  spread out your load
equally  on both  sides of  the center-
line.
