TIRE AND WHEEL SYSTEM INSPECTION

PROCEDURE


  1. INSPECT TIRES


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

      Cold Tire Inflation Pressure (for Korea)
      Tire Size

      Front

      kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)

      Rear

      kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)
      225/65R17 102H 220 (2.2, 32) 220 (2.2, 32)
      235/55R18 99H 220 (2.2, 32) 220 (2.2, 32)
      Cold Tire Inflation Pressure (for General Export)
      Tire Size

      Front

      kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)

      Rear

      kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)
      225/65R17 102H 220 (2.2, 32) 220 (2.2, 32)
      235/55R18 99H 220 (2.2, 32) 220 (2.2, 32)
      Cold Tire Inflation Pressure (for Europe)
      Tire Size

      Front

      kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)

      Rear

      kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)
      225/65R17 102H 220 (2.2, 32) 220 (2.2, 32)
      240 (2.4, 35)* 240 (2.4, 35)*
      235/55R18 99H 220 (2.2, 32) 220 (2.2, 32)

      *: with ECO tire pressure label

      Cold Tire Inflation Pressure (for Compact Spare Tire)
      Tire Size

      kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)
      T165/80D17 104M 420 (4.2, 60)
    2. A01CWL7

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

      Tire runout
      1.4 mm (0.0551 in.) or less

  2. ROTATE TIRES


    1. A01CXEPC01
      *a Front of the Vehicle
      *b Vehicle Wheels and Spare Tire Wheel are Same Type
      *c Vehicle Wheels and Spare Tire Wheel are Not Same Type, or There is No Spare Tire

      Rotate the tires as shown in the illustration.

      Torque:
      103 N*m  { 1050 kgf*cm, 76 ft.*lbf }

  3. INSPECT WHEEL BALANCE


    1. A01CXYYN01

      for Aluminum Wheel Type:

      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.

      Tech Tips


      • The inner side balance weights should be installed by clipping them to the rim.

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

    2. A01CX7P

      for Steel Wheel Type:

      Check and adjust the off-the-car balance.

      Maximum imbalance after adjustment
      8.0 g (0.0176 lb.)

      Tech Tips

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