Wheels and Tires Tire Replacement Requirements WARNINGS Only use replacement tires and wheels that are the same size, load index, speed rating and type, (for example P-metric versus LT-metric or all-season versus all-terrain) as those originally provided by Ford. The recommended tire and wheel size may be found on either the Safety Compliance Certification Label (affixed to either the door hinge pillar, door-latch post, or the door edge that meets the door-latch post, next to the driver seating position), or the Tire Label which is located on the B-Pillar or edge of the driver door. If this information is not found on these labels, then you should contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible. Use of any tire or wheel not recommended by Ford can affect the safety and performance of your vehicle, which could result in an increased risk of loss of vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal injury and death. Additionally the use of non-recommended tires and wheels could cause steering, suspension, axle, transfer case or power transfer unit failure. If you have questions regarding tire replacement, contact an authorized dealer as soon as possible. WARNINGS Always inflate steel carcass tires with a remote air fill with the person inflating standing at a minimum of 12.1 ft (3.7 m) away from the wheel and tire assembly. Your vehicle is fitted with tires designed to provide a safe ride and handling capability. We recommend that the two front tires or two rear tires generally be replaced as a pair. Note: The wheel valve stems must also be replaced when the road tires are replaced on your vehicle. Fitting Replacement Tires WARNINGS When mounting replacement tires and wheels, you should not exceed the maximum pressure indicated on the sidewall of the tire to set the beads without additional precautions listed below. If the beads do not seat at the maximum pressure indicated, re-lubricate and try again. For mounting pressures above 20 psi (1.38 bar) greater than the maximum pressure on the tire sidewall, the tire should be replaced by a tire professional. 247 Transit (TTH) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, Edition date: 03/2014, Third Printing
