    General Technical Information

    Dual Matching
    Tires in dual assemblies should be matched with regard to

    Medium Truck
    design and dimensional tolerances as noted below.
    Improperly matched duals may result in irregular wear, rapid
    wear, vehicle mechanical problems and premature tire failure.
    Failure to match tires in a dual assembly may result in sudden
    tire destruction.
