Tire Inflation Pressures
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 RAM Pickup and 2011 RAM Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING:
Over or under inflated tires can affect vehicle handling and tread wear. This may cause the tire to fail suddenly, resulting in loss of vehicle control.
Under inflation will cause rapid shoulder wear (1), tire flexing, and possible tire failure.
Over inflation will cause rapid center wear (1) reduction in the tire's ability to cushion shocks.
Improper inflation can cause:
- Uneven wear patterns
- Reduced tread life
- Reduced fuel economy
- Unsatisfactory ride
- Vehicle drift
For proper tire pressure specification, refer to the tire label placard usually located on the drivers door latch pillar.
