Résumé
This notice solicits comments to assist NHTSA in determining whether to propose certain amendments to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (Standard) No. 120, Tire selection and rims for motor vehicles other than passenger cars. This rulemaking action implements NHTSA's granting of a petition for rulemaking submitted by the Tire Retreading Institute (TRI). The petition suggested that paragraph S5.1.3 of Standard No. 120 be amended to permit the installation of manufacturer-supplied retreaded tires on new trailers. As currently provided, used or retreaded tires may be installed on new trucks, buses, and trailers only if owned and provided by the vehicle purchaser. This notice solicits comments on that suggestion and, in addition, solicits comments on whether the standard should be further amended to permit manufacturers and/or distributors and dealers, in addition to the vehicle purchasers, to install used as well as retreaded tires on new trucks and buses as well as trailers.
