DO NOT OVERLOAD
DRIVING ON ANY OVERLOADED TIRE IS
DANGEROUS
The maximum load rating of your tires is molded on the tire sidewall. Do
not exceed this rating. Follow the loading instructions of the manufacturer
of your vehicle and this will ensure that your tires are not overloaded. Tires
which are loaded beyond their maximum allowable loads for the particular
application will build up excessive heat that may result in sudden tire
destruction.
Do not exceed the gross axle weight rating for any axle on your vehicle.
TRAILER TOWING
If you anticipate towing a trailer, you should visit any Authorized PAX
System retailer for advice concerning the correct size tire and pressures.
Tire size and pressures will depend upon the type and size of trailer and
hitch utilized, but in no case must the maximum cold inflation pressure or
tire load rating be exceeded. Check the tire decal and the owner’s manual
supplied by the manufacturer of your vehicle for further recommendations
on trailer towing.
PAX System Tires and Trailer Towing
Operation of PAX System tires at low or zero air pressure with a trailer in
tow, is dangerous and is not recommended. If the low pressure warning
indicator is activated when a trailer is in tow, stop, disconnect the trailer,
and do not continue to tow the trailer until the tire has been repaired and
re-inflated to the proper air pressure. If the tire cannot be repaired, it must
be replaced with a new PAX System tire, and inflated to the proper air
pressure, before the trailer can be safely towed again.
WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND BALANCING ARE
IMPORTANT FOR SAFETY AND MAXIMUM MILEAGE
FROM YOUR TIRES.
CHECK HOW YOUR TIRES ARE WEARING AT LEAST ONCE EACH
MONTH
If your tires are wearing unevenly, such as the inside shoulder of the tire
wearing faster than the rest of the tread, or if you detect excessive
vibration, your vehicle may be out of alignment or balance. These
conditions not only shorten the life of your tires but adversely affect the
handling characteristics of your vehicle, which could be dangerous. If you
detect irregular wear or vibration, have your alignment and balance
checked immediately. Tires which have been run underinflated will show
more wear on the shoulders than in the center of the tread.
