NOTES:
- LOAD RATING: You can also always go up in load rating for tires- not advised to go down per weight of the vehicle or load via roof top cargo or towing
- TREAD DEPTH GAGE: You can use this tool to notice if your tires are less worn front to back. When you have a noticeable difference, rotate the tires. This is a proactive method rather than just waiting for an oil change to do the standard rotation.
