NEW TIRE DIMENSIONS

Aspect Ratio

Section Height
Section Width

Rim Width

Linear distance between the flanges of the rim.

Static Loaded Radius

Distance from wheel axle centerline to supporting tread surface at a


given load and pressure in a static condition.

Tire (Overall) Width

The width of a new tire, including 24-hour inflation growth, and


including protective side ribs, bars and decorations.

Section Height

Half the difference between the overall diameter and the nominal rim
diameter.

Overall Diameter

The diameter of an inflated tire at the outermost surface of the tread,


including 24-hour inflation growth.

Revolutions Per Mile

Measured number of revolutions for a tire traveling one mile. This can
vary with speed, load, and inflation.

Tread Width

Distance across tread from shoulder to shoulder.

Width Loaded

Tire width (overall) under rated load conditions.

Minimum Dual Spacing Minimum dual tire centerline to centerline measurement.


Section Width

Linear distance between outside of sidewalls of inflated tire (exclusive of


markings, etc.).

GENERAL INFORMATION
Tube-Type Tire Considerations:

- more easily repairable


- standardization with existing tube-type wheels in fleet taken into account when converting to
low profiles.

TIRE CONSTRUCTION

The original purpose for introduction of the low profile tires was to minimize irregular wear. Shown
below are some other considerations of low profile tires.

Aspect Ratio (Low Profile) Considerations:


-

improved treadwear (less irregular wear) on steer and trail axles


lighter weight
potential fuel economy improvement
better cube potential due to smaller tire diameter on new equipment
improved stability from higher lateral spring rate
more susceptible to sidewall damage

As mentioned earlier, there are drive train/ gearing considerations which must be made at the
original equipment or replacement level when utilizing low profile tires. These involve the engine
RPM, transmission, drive axle gear ratio and tire RPM. The objective is to obtain the most fuel
efficient engine RPM/ground speed relationship consistent with service condition requirements.
The effect on road speed at the same engine RPM, using a 55 mph base, depends upon which
conventional sizes and which low profile diameters are involved.

GENERAL INFORMATION
LOW ASPECT RATIO TIRES

(USING TYPICAL DESIGN DIMENSIONS)

MATCH TIRE FOR SPEED AND AXLE WEIGHTS


In a tire selection process, it is mandatory that consideration be given to selecting a tire size and
load range which at least equals the maximum load requirements by axle position (steer, drive or
trail). All highway truck tires have load limits established for tires used in normal highway service.
Therefore, when selecting a tire for service, both the carrying capacity and speed implications must
be considered.

GENERAL INFORMATION
E. VAI Siping System (An Early Warning System That Helps
Protect Your Tire Investment)

Visual Alignment Indicators (VAI) help protect your tire investment from possible front-end alignment
problems. It's an insurance designed to help save truck operators many thousands of dollars.
Here's why: Visually detecting faulty alignment conditions before any damage occurs is virtually
impossible. But with this Continental Tire innovation, drivers can now detect possible misalignment
conditions after only relatively short tire service.
The VAI siping system is a preventive maintenance system consisting of four or eight sets of sipes
equally spaced around the inside and outside shoulder ribs. These sipes are indicators, graduated
in depth, which allow for easy detection of wear differences between the shoulder ribs. Any
discrepancy in wear signals the occurrences of side forcesforces which may prevent straight
tracking of the tirea sure sign of possible misalignment. And this early warning prevention system
can mean significant savings in tire bills, as well as substantial benefits such as increased original
tread life and protection of the casing for retreading exactly what a cost-conscious fleet owner
looks for in a tire.
The VAI+ is the next step in the evolution of the exclusive Continental Visual Alignment Indicator
system. The addition of a plus (+) mark represents the useful remaining tread depth as the tire wears,
allowing the consumer constant visual representation on the tread surface. At 8/32 inches of tread
depth, these indicators change from (+) to (-), alerting the consumer that it is time to consider tire
removal or movement to the trailer axle. The (-) indicator remains visible until 4/32 inches, and
when it completely disappears, this signifies the approach to the lowest depth limit allowed by law.
The HSR2, HSR2 Eco Plus and HSR2 SA are equipped with the VAI+ Siping System.
The following tires are equipped with the VAI Siping System:

(VISUAL ALIGNMENT INDICATORS)
Examples of Early Detection of Alignment Problems by VAI

NOTE: Differences in shoulder rib wear appearance may not be consistent with a
single contributing cause (as shown above), but may also reflect the cumulative
effects of several out-of-spec alignment settings.
The object of VAI is to indicate alignment problems. It cannot and should not take
the place of a thorough professional alignment inspection.

F. Safety Warnings
TIRE DEMOUNTING AND MOUNTING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

SAFETY WARNING
SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH MAY RESULT FROM:

EXPLOSION OF TIRE RIM ASSEMBLY DUE TO


IMPROPER MOUNTING - USE SAFETY CAGE &
CLIP-ON EXTENSION AIR HOSE. ONLY
SPECIALLY TRAINED PERSONS SHOULD
MOUNT TIRES.

WARNING

Tire and wheel servicing can be dangerous, and should be done by trained personnel using proper
tools and procedures. Follow the procedures and safety precautions in the RMAs Demounting and
Mounting Procedures for Trucks / Bus Tires and Inspection procedures for identification of potential
zipper ruptures in steel cord radial medium and light truck tires charts and service bulletins.
Failure to comply with these procedures may result in faulty positioning of the tire and/or rim parts,
and cause the assembly to burst with explosive force, sufficient to cause serious physical injury or
death. Never mount or use damaged tires or rims.

MISAPPLICATION/IMPROPER INFLATION/OVERLOADING SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING

There is a danger of serious injury or death if a tire


of one bead diameter is installed on a rim or wheel
of a different rim diameter.

Rims of different diameters and tapers cannot be


interchanged. The following diagram illustrates the
difference between rims of two different tapers
and diameters.

Re-assembly and inflation of mismatched parts can


result in serious injury or death. Just because parts
come in together does not mean they belong
together. Check for proper matching of all rim parts
before putting any parts together.
16" RIM DIAMETER

Always replace a tire with another tire of exactly


the same bead diameter designation and suffix
letters.
For example: A 16" tire goes on a 16" rim. Never
mount a 16" tire on a 16.1" or 16.5" rim. A 16.1" tire
goes on a 16.1" rim. Never mount a 16.1" tire on a 16"
or 16.5" rim. A 16.5" tire goes on 16.5" rim. Never
mount a 16.5" tire on a 16" or 16.1" rim.
While it is possible to pass a 16" diameter tire over
the lip or flange of a 16.1" or 16.5" size diameter rim,
it cannot be inflated enough to
position itself against the rim flange. If an attempt is
made to seat the tire bead by inflating, the tire bead
will break with explosive force and could cause
serious injury or death.

52
38

16.5" RIM DIAMETER

The following diagram shows how beads of a 16"


tire will not seat on a 16.5" rim. The beads cannot
be forced out against the rim flanges by using
more air pressure because this will break the
beads and the tire will explode with force sufficient
to cause serious injury or death.

16.5" RIM

Never assemble a tire and rim unless you have


positively identified and correctly matched the parts.

GENERAL INFORMATION
!

WARNING

NEVER inflate beyond 40 pounds pressure to seat beads.


NEVER stand, lean or reach over the assembly during inflation.
Inspect both sides of the tire to be sure that the beads are evenly seated. If tire is mounted on a machine that
does not have a positive lock-down device to hold the wheel, inflation should be done on a safety cage. If
both beads are not properly seated when pressure reaches 40 pounds, completely deflate the assembly,
reposition the tire and/or tube on the rim, relubricate and reinflate. Inflating beyond 40 pounds air pressure
when trying to seat the beads is a DANGEROUS PRACTICE that may break a tire bead (or even the rim) with
explosive force, possibly resulting in serious injury or death. After the beads are fully seated, pressure may be
increased above 40 psi to operating pressures, not to exceed the maximum labeled on the tire sidewall.

WARNING

Permanent tire damage due to underinflation and/or


overloading cannot always be detected. Any tire known
or suspected to have been run at 80% or less of normal
operating inflation pressure and/or overloaded, could
possibly have permanent structural damage (steel cord
fatigue). Ply cords weakened by underinflation and/or
overloading may break one after another, until a rupture
occurs in the upper sidewall with accompanying
instantaneous air loss and explosive force. This can
result in serious injury or death.

Any tire suspected of having been operated underinflated


and/or overloaded must be approached with caution.
Completely deflate the tire by removing the valve core
before removing the tire/rim/wheel assembly from the
vehicle. After removing from the vehicle, clearly identify the
tire so it will not be reinflated until carefully inspected
by a trained technician to determine the cause of
underinflation, as well as any tire damage resulting from
underinflation and/or overloading.

WARNING

The use of any flammable material during tire servicing is absolutely prohibited. Use of starting fluid ether,
gasoline, or any other flammable material to lubricate, seal or seat the beads of a tubeless tire can cause the
tire to explode or can cause the explosive separation of the tire/rim assembly resulting in serious injury or
death.
This practice may also result in undetected damage to the tire or rim that could result in failure of the tire in
service.

GENERAL INFORMATION
SAFETY WARNING!
The air pressure contained in a tire
is dangerous. The sudden release
of this pressure by a tire blow-out
or side ring separation can cause
serious injury or death. Stay out of
the trajectory as indicated by
shaded area. When installing the
tire/rim assembly on the vehicle, it
will be impossible to stay out of
the trajectory; however, at all other
times you and all others must stay
out of the trajectory.

WARNING

Tire explosions can cause death or personal injury or property damage.


Excessive speed in a free-running, unloaded tire can cause it to explode from extreme centrifugal force.

WARNING

When mounting dual disc wheels on a vehicle, be sure to carefully check and retighten or
retorque inner cap nuts before mounting the outer wheel. In demounting the outer wheel, there
is a possibility that the inner cap nuts may have been loosened accidentally.
NEVER rework, weld, heat, or braze the tire/wheel/rim. Heating the rim of tire/wheel/rim
assembly can cause a tire to explode, causing serious injury or death.
NEVER hammer, strike or pry on any type of tire/rim assembly while the tire contains inflation
pressure. Do not attempt to seat any part while the tire contains any inflation pressure. This
could result in serious injury or death.

G. Regrooving
Continental, General, Ameri*Steel, and Euzkadi brand truck tires that have
REGROOVABLE molded on the sidewall may be regrooved. After regrooving,
it is required that 3/32 of under tread remains to cover the top ply.
It is the responsibility of the regroover to assure that all Federal Regulations are
met. For further clarification, see Code of Federal Regulations: Title 49,
Transportation; Parts 569 and 393.75.
