Tires are inflated when shipped, but they invariably lose some pressure between the point of WARNING:

product and void your warranty.

WARNING:
Do not over inflate, as this could
damage the tire or wheel.

Note: The pressurized air supplies

found at gasoline stations are
designed to inflate high-volume
automobile tires. If you decide to
use such an air supply to inflate
your tires, first make sure the
pressure gauge is working, then
use very short bursts to inflate to
the correct PSI. If you inadvertently
over-inflate the tire, release the
excess pressure immediately.

Using a bicycle style tire pump equipped for a Schrader-type valve, inflate the tires with a pressure gauge
to the PSI indicated on the sidewall of the tires.
