TIRE AND WHEEL SYSTEM INSPECTION


  1. INSPECT TIRE


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

      245/45R19 102Y 290 (2.9, 42)*1 290 (2.9, 42)*1
      250 (2.5, 36)*2 250 (2.5, 36)*2

      *1: For driving at over 210 km/h (131 mph)

      *2: For driving at under 210 km/h (131 mph)

      245/45R19 102Y 290 (2.9, 42)*1 290 (2.9, 42)*1
      250 (2.5, 36)*2 250 (2.5, 36)*2

      *1: For driving at over 160 km/h (100 mph)

      *2: For driving at under 160 km/h (100 mph)

      Standard Cold Tire Inflation Pressure (for Middle East and General Export)
      Tire Size

      Front

      kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)

      Rear

      kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)
      245/45R19 102Y 290 (2.9, 42)*1 290 (2.9, 42)*1
      250 (2.5, 36)*2 250 (2.5, 36)*2

      *1: For driving at over 210 km/h (131 mph)

      *2: For driving at under 210 km/h (131 mph)

      Standard Cold Tire Inflation Pressure (for China)
      Tire Size

      Front

      kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)

      Rear

      kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)
      245/45R19 102Y 290 (2.9, 42)*1 290 (2.9, 42)*1
      250 (2.5, 36)*2 250 (2.5, 36)*2

      *1: For driving at over 160 km/h (100 mph)

      *2: For driving at under 160 km/h (100 mph)

    2. A01H0SL

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

      Tire runout
      1.0 mm (0.0394 in.) or less

  2. ROTATE TIRE


    1. A01H12GE01
      Text in Illustration
      *A w/ Spare Tire
      *B w/o Spare Tire
      *a Front of the Vehicle

      Rotate the tires as shown in the illustration.

      Torque:
      140 N*m  { 1428 kgf*cm, 103 ft.*lbf }

  3. INSPECT WHEEL BALANCE


    1. A01GXG4E01

      Check and adjust the off-the-car balance.

      Maximum imbalance after adjustment
      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 sticking surface of the tape.

      • Adhere a sticking type balance weight to the flat surface (A) shown in the illustration.

        Width (A)
        25 mm (0.984 in.)

      • Push the balance weight firmly to adhere it to the position.

      • Do not reuse the balance weight.

      • Please use the LEXUS genuine sticking type balance weight.

      Tech Tips

      If necessary, check and adjust the on-the-car balance.
