Tyre pressures and wheel nut / bolt torque
Tyre specification
Fitment details
- Applies to the configuration listed in the 2021 CarGO Tipper2 brochure.
- Wheel torque depends on the fitted fixing: M12 steel-wheel fixing 120 Nm; M16 fixing — awaiting confirmation.
- Confirm the thread size before choosing a setting; socket size alone is not sufficient.
- These settings do not cover alloy wheels.
- Pressure applies to the standard 13-inch tyre, not the optional 12-inch wheel.
- Weights cover the standard 2021 brochure configuration; optional equipment changes the unladen weight.
- Unladen weight includes dropsides and rear doors or tailgate.
Choose the setting for the confirmed wheel fixing.
Socket size alone does not identify the thread.
Alloy wheels are not covered by these settings.

| Tyre size | kPa | PSI | bar |
|---|---|---|---|
| 165R13C | 450 | 65 | 4.5 |
Please ensure the maximum pressure marked on your tyre sidewall is equal to or higher than the pressure listed here.
A tyre of the same size with a lower pressure rating may have been fitted by mistake.
Never exceed the maximum pressure marked on the tyre.
Is your tyre load rating high enough?
Find the load index beside the tyre size. For example, 104 = 900 kg per tyre. For normal trailer wheels, use the first number in 104/102N. The second is for tyres mounted side by side on one hub, not a trailer with two axles. N is the speed symbol.
Open the tyre load rating conversion chart →
Capacity per tyre × number of road tyres = combined tyre capacity. Do not count the spare or jockey wheel.
Example: four tyres rated 104 give 900 × 4 = 3,600 kg, which exceeds a 3,500 kg trailer maximum gross weight by 100 kg. This is a total-capacity comparison only.
Check your tyre capacity
Enter all three values to compare capacity.
Check every axle too: its tyres must support its plated maximum axle weight, and no individual tyre may be overloaded. This calculator assumes all tyres have the same load index and are mounted singly. It does not confirm fitment or set tyre pressure. Keep the trailer manufacturer’s required load and speed ratings, use the specified cold pressure and check the actual loaded axle weights.
Cold tyre pressure
65 PSI / 4.5 bar / 450 kPa
A separate unloaded or fully laden pressure has not been confirmed for this entry.

Use the setting only for the wheel and fixing specification described above.
