.
Cracking
Any parting within the tread, side-
wall,
or
inner
liner
of
the
tire
extending to cord material.
.
Curb weight
The weight of a motor vehicle with
standard equipment including the
maximum capacity of fuel, oil and
coolant,
and
if
so
equipped,
air
conditioning and additional weight
optional engine.
.
Extra load tire
A tire designed to operate at higher
loads and higher inflation pressure
than
the
corresponding
standard
tire.
.
Groove
The space between two adjacent
tread ribs.
.
Innerliner
The layer(s) forming the inside sur-
face of a tubeless tire that contains
the inflating medium within the tire.
.
Innerliner separation
The parting of the innerliner from
cord material in the carcass.
.
Intended outboard sidewall
(1)
The sidewall that contains a
whitewall, bears white lettering
or
bears
manufacturer,
brand,
and/or model name molding that
is
higher
or
deeper
than
the
same molding on the other side-
wall of the tire, or
(2)
The outward facing sidewall
of an asymmetrical tire that has
a particular side that must al-
ways face outward when mount-
ing on a vehicle.
.
Light truck (LT) tire
A tire designated by its manufac-
turer as primarily intended for use
on lightweight trucks or multipur-
pose passenger vehicles.
.
Load rating
The maximum load that a tire is
rated to carry for a given inflation
pressure.
.
Maximum inflation pressure
The maximum cold inflation pres-
sure to which a tire may be inflated.
.
Maximum load rating
The load rating for a tire at the
maximum
permissible
inflation
pressure for that tire.
.
Maximum loaded vehicle weight
The sum of:
(a)
Curb weight
(b)
Accessory weight
(c)
Vehicle capacity weight
(d)
Production options weight
.
Maximum
permissible
inflation
pressure
The maximum cold inflation pres-
sure to which a tire may be inflated.
.
Measuring rim
The rim on which a tire is fitted for
physical dimension requirements.
.
Normal occupant weight
150 lbs (68 kg) times the number of
occupants specified in the second
column of Table 1 that is appended
to the end of this section.
.
Occupant distribution
Distribution of occupants in a vehi-
cle as specified in the third column
of Table 1 that is appended to the
end of this section.
.
Open splice
Any parting at any junction of tread,
