This sticker will list pressures for both the front and rear tires, often showing different values depending on whether the truck is lightly or heavily loaded. Always prioritize the information on this sticker.
Ignoring the sticker's recommendation can lead to:
* Reduced fuel economy: Underinflation increases rolling resistance.
* Uneven tire wear: Improper inflation causes some parts of the tire to wear out faster.
* Reduced handling and braking: Both underinflation and overinflation negatively affect your truck's control.
* Increased risk of a blowout: Both underinflation and overinflation can lead to tire failure.
The number you might find printed on the tire sidewall is the *maximum* pressure the tire itself can handle, not the recommended pressure for your F-150. Always use the lower pressure specified on the doorjamb sticker.
