TIRE AND WHEEL SYSTEM INSPECTION

PROCEDURE


  1. INSPECT TIRES


    1. Inspect the tires for wear and proper inflation pressure.

      Front

      kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)

      Rear

      kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)

      175/65R14 82T 220 (2.2, 32) 220 (2.2, 32)
      175/70R14 84S 250 (2.5, 36) 240 (2.4, 35)
      175/65R15 84H 230 (2.3, 33) 220 (2.2, 32)

      175/65R15 84H

      Eco Pressure

      250 (2.5, 36) 240 (2.4, 35)
      185/60R15 84H

      220 (2.2, 32)*1

      240 (2.4, 35)*2

      220 (2.2, 32)
      195/50R16 84V

      220 (2.2, 32)*1

      240 (2.4, 35)*2

      200 (2.0, 29)*1

      210 (2.1, 30)*2

      205/45R17 84W

      220 (2.2, 32)*3

      240 (2.4, 35)*4

      200 (2.0, 29)*3

      220 (2.2, 32)*4

      *1: For driving at under 160 km/h (99 mph)

      *2: For driving at over 160 km/h (99 mph)

      *3: For driving at under 190 km/h (118 mph)

      *4: For driving at over 190 km/h (118 mph)

      Using a dial indicator, check the runout of the tires.

      Maximum Tire Runout
      1.4 mm (0.0551 in.) or less (Vertical)
      2.0 mm (0.0787 in.) or less (Lateral)

      Tech Tips

      Measure the runout with the wheel assembly removed from the vehicle.

  2. ROTATE TIRES


    1. B0045YGC02
      B0046MU Front

      If the spare tire uses a different type of wheel than the other tires, rotate the tires as shown by (A) in the illustration. If the spare tire has the same type of wheel as the other tires, rotate the tires, including the spare tire, as shown by (B) in the illustration.

  3. INSPECT AND ADJUST WHEEL BALANCE


    1. Inspect and adjust the off-the-car balance.


      1. for Steel Wheel:

        Maximum Wheel Imbalance
        8.0 g (0.0176 lb)
      2. B00487QC01
        *a 25 mm (0.984 in.)

        for 15 inch and 16 inch Aluminum Wheel:

        Maximum Wheel Imbalance
        8.0 g (0.0176 lb)

        Note


        • Use a cleaning detergent to remove dirt, oil and water from the surface where the balance weight is to be adhered.

        • Do not touch the adhesive surface of the balance weight.

        • Adhere a stick-on type balance weight to the flat surface*a shown in the illustration.

        • Push the balance weight with your finger to securely adhere it to the desired position.

        • Do not reuse balance weights.

        • Use only TOYOTA genuine stick-on type balance weights or equivalent.

        Tech Tips


        • Use clip-on type balance weights for the inner side, and stick-on type balance weights for the outer side.

        • If the tires vibrate even after the off-the-car balance adjustment, adjust the wheel balance with on-the-car balancing as necessary.

      3. B0045F2C01
        *a 25 mm (0.984 in.)

        for 17 inch Aluminum Wheel:

        Maximum Wheel Imbalance
        8.0 g (0.0176 lb)

        Note


        • Use a cleaning detergent to remove dirt, oil and water from the surface where the balance weight is to be adhered.

        • Do not touch the adhesive surface of the balance weight.

        • Adhere a stick-on type balance weight to the flat surface*a shown in the illustration.

        • Push the balance weight with your finger to securely adhere it to the desired position.

        • Do not reuse balance weights.

        • Use only TOYOTA genuine stick-on type balance weights or equivalent.

        Tech Tips


        • Use stick-on type balance weights for both the inner and outer side.

        • If the tires vibrate even after the off-the-car balance adjustment, adjust the wheel balance with on-the-car balancing as necessary.
