Tyre Max Pressure Ratings for Armoured Vehicles.

Published July 12, 2018 By Mick Farmer

Ensure that the tyres fitted to Up Armoured Vehicles have the correct pressure rating.

These tyres (photo below) have a max pressured 44 psi where the tyre pressures have to be 55 front and 60 rear.  This is a fundamental error that should have been picked up by the supplier.

Going past the safety guidelines for the tyre manufacturer is never a good thing. There is a possibility it could fail.
