5 Size codes, dimensions, inflation pressure and load capacity for tyres
5.1 The size code, ply rating, load index, measured rim, new tyre dimension, load capacity and inflation pressure for tyres shall be as specified in Tables 1 to 33; the maximum dimension in service, static load radius, minimum dual spacing, permissible rim and model of inflating valves for tyres should be as specified in Tables 1 to 33; data for other specifications are listed in Annex A.
5.2 The corresponding relations between tyre speed and load change shall be as specified in Table 34. When the load increases, inflation pressure shall be appropriately increased, and the increase ratio shall be settled through negotiation with the manufacturer.
5.3 The corresponding relations between load index and load capacity shall meet the requirements of Annex B.
5.4 The corresponding relations between speed symbols and the maximum driving speed shall meet the requirements of Annex C.
