Fitment of Larger non-approved Tyres

Tyre Weight impacts Target Payload
• Gross Machine Weight IS FIXED
• Empty Machine Weight (Tare) includes:
– All attachments
• Factory
• Dealer
• Customer
– Full tank of fuel
– Debris (2% - 4% of bare chassis tare weight)
– Tyres
– Rims
– Truck Body and Body Liner Package
• Target Payload = GMW - EMW
5
Unsprung Weight?
• All additional TARE Weight must be accounted for.
• TARE Weight + Target Payload = Fixed GMW
Impacts on GMW Certification.
– Braking Certification – More braking force is required to stop the
higher inertia. Park brake must hold a certified stationary mass on a
specified grade. Location of additional mass is irrelevant.
– Steering Certification – The gyroscopic impact of a larger weight
spinning at large diameter makes steering more difficult and harder
to change directions.
– If the additional 5 tonnes of rim / tyre weight has no impact on target
payload then what about the first 40 tonnes of rim / tyre weight?
