Dear mr. Wilkins: This responds to your February 17, 1977, letter, concerning Nationa Highway Traffic Safety Administration's (NHTSA) tire labeling requirements contained in Standard No. 120, *Tire Selection and Rims for Motor Vehicles Other Than Passenger Cars*. You address the situation in which it is not practicable to affix the information label to the door.; Location of vehicle certification labels and tire information labels i governed by Part 567.4(c). This section provides that the primary location of the required labels is either the hinge pillar, door-latch post, or door edge that meet the door-latch post, next to the drivers seating position, or if none of these locations is practicable, to the left side of the instrument panel. Further, if none of the above locations is practicable, you may request an alternate location from the agency. I am enclosing a copy of Part 567 explaining how to request an alternate location for the information label.; Sincerely, Joseph J. Levin, Jr., Chief Counsel
