TIRE SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE INFORMATION
SPECIAL ADVICE FOR LIGHT TRUCKS
Never exceed the speed limit as indicated by the speed symbol on
the tire’s sidewall. See the chart and explanation of speed ratings in
this manual.
If you do not know the speed rating of your Nitto
®
brand tire,
contact your Nitto
®
dealer or Nitto
®
Tire U.S.A. Inc. for current
information.
TIRES DESIGNATED AS “LT” WITH NO SPEED RATING
INDICATED ON THE SIDEWALL
It is not recommended that any light truck be operated at speeds
in excess of legal limits. However, if it is anticipated that sustained
driving at speeds in excess of 65 mph may be required, then the
following adjustments or recommendations should be followed:
• At speeds from 66 mph through 75 mph, cold
infl ation pressure must be increased 10 psi above the
recommended pressures for the load being carried.
• Do not exceed the maximum infl ation pressure of the wheel
(all wheels have maximum allowable infl ation pressures).
REPLACEMENT TIRES FOR LIGHT TRUCKS – P-METRIC
VS. LT-TRUCK
Tire installers should exercise extreme caution when replacing tires
on light trucks.
The maximum load capacity stamped on the sidewall of a P-metric
tire is reduced by a factor of 1.1 when used on a light truck, a sport
utility vehicle, or a trailer.
