WARNING ¼ Improperly inflated tires can fail suddenly and cause an accident ¼ The vehicle weight capacity is indicated on the F.M.V.S.S. certification label. Do not load your vehicle beyond this capacity. Overloading your vehicle may result in reduced tire life, unsafe operating conditions due to premature tire failure, or unfavorable handling characteristics and could also lead to a serious accident.
