Check the sidewalls to make sure there are no gouges, cuts, bulges or other irregularities. NOTE: • If you overfill the tire, release air by pushing on the metal stem in the center of the valve. Then recheck the pressure with your tire gauge. • Some spare tires require higher inflation pressure than the other tires.
