Wheels: Description and Operation
General Description

The factory-installed tires are designed to operate with loads up to and including the full rated load capacity when inflated to the recommended inflation
pressures.

Tire pressures, wheel alignment, and driving techniques affect tire life. Under-inflated tires can cause handling problems, poor fuel economy, shortened
tire life, and tire overloading. Heavy cornering, overly rapid acceleration, and heavy braking will also decrease the tire life.
