Tire Placard tells end users how much cargo their trailer/truck can carry

Since September in 2009 vehicle manufacturers who build trailers and trucks under 4.536 kgs (10,000 lbs) must add a new label called a Tire Placard to every new vehicle. The placard must use the colours red and yellow to comply with the regulation. These colours were selected to help end users notice and locate important safety information The purpose of the placard is to inform the end user how much cargo the vehicle can carry before the GVWR is exceeded, cold tire inflation pressure for a fully loaded vehicle, and replacement tire sizes. NOW SOLD BY THE CTEA. Click here for more information such as size, cost, etc.
