Maximum Axle Loads: What Are They, and Where Can I Find Them for My Car? Maximum axle loads are the maximum values specified by the manufacturer that legally allow you to load your car. These values are provided for each axle and as a total. You can find these values on your chassis plate, where your VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) is also located (your chassis number). Using these values, you can determine which set is suitable for your car.
