Tire ply composition and material

WARNING - Tire age
Tires  degrade  over  time,  even
when they are not being used.
The number of layers or plies of  rub-     Quality grades  can be  found  where
ber-coated   fabric  in   the  tire.  Tire     applicable     on   the    tire    sidewall
manufacturers also must indicate the     between  tread  shoulder  and  maxi-
materials  in  the  tire,  which include      mum section width.
Regardless   of   the  remaining
tread,  it  is  recommended  that
tires generally be replaced after
six (6)  years of normal  service.
Heat caused  by hot climates  or
frequent   high   loading   condi-
tions  can accelerate  the  aging
process.  Failure  to  follow  this
warning   could  cause   sudden
tire failure,  which could lead  to
a  loss  of control  and  an  acci-
dent involving serious  injury or
death.

letter "B" means belted-bias ply con-      TEMPERATURE A
struction.
Tread wear
5.
Maximum permissible inflation
pressure
The tread wear  grade is a compara-
tive rating based on  the wear rate of
the tire when tested under controlled
conditions  on   a  specified   govern-
ment test course. For example, a tire
graded  150 would  wear  one-and-a-
half times  (1½)  as well  on the  gov-
ernment course as a tire graded 100.
This number  is the greatest  amount
of air pressure  that should be  put in
the tire. Do not exceed the maximum
permissible inflation  pressure. Refer
to the  Tire and  Loading Information
label   for    recommended    inflation
pressure.
The  relative   performance   of  tires
depends upon  the actual  conditions
of   their   use,   however,  and   may
depart  significantly   from  the  norm
due  to  variations  in  driving  habits,
service  practices and  differences in
road characteristics and climate.
6.
Maximum load rating
This number indicates the  maximum
load  in  kilograms  and  pounds  that
can  be   carried  by  the   tire.  When
replacing  the  tires   on  the  vehicle,
always use  a tire that  has the same
load  rating  as  the  factory  installed
tire.
