Troubleshooting tips and frequently asked questions for JK Tyre Small Commercial Vehicle Tyres.
Troubleshooting tips
Check tyre pressure weekly when tyres are cold; for JK Tyre SCV tyres, maintain 32-36 PSI for front and 40-45 PSI for rear (refer to vehicle manual). Underinflation by 10% can reduce tyre life by 15%.
Inspect tread depth using a tread depth gauge; replace tyres when tread reaches 1.6mm. For JK Tyre SCV tyres, irregular wear often indicates misalignment—get wheel alignment checked every 10,000 km.
Rotate tyres every 5,000-7,000 km following the vehicle manufacturer's pattern to ensure even wear. JK Tyre recommends front-to-rear rotation for SCV tyres.
Avoid overloading beyond the tyre's load index; JK Tyre SCV tyres are designed for specific load capacities. Overloading causes excessive heat and can lead to tyre burst.
If you experience vibration or pulling, check for wheel balancing and alignment. JK Tyre authorized service centers can perform these services; call 1800-258-1100 for nearest center.
