TIRE AND WHEEL SYSTEM INSPECTION

PROCEDURE


  1. INSPECT TIRES


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

      Cold Tire Inflation Pressure
      Tire Size Cold Tire Inflation Pressure
      Front Rear

      245/60R18

      245/55R19

      250 kPa (2.5 kgf/cm2, 36 psi)

      250 kPa (2.5 kgf/cm2, 36 psi)

    2. Perform initialization. (w/ Tire Pressure Warning System)

    3. Tire pressure adjustment method when warm: (w/ Tire Pressure Warning System)


      1. Turn the ignition switch off.

      2. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

      3. Turn the ignition switch on (IG).

      4. Turn the GTS on.

      5. Enter the following menus: Chassis / Tire Pressure Monitor / Data List.

      6. Adjust the tire pressure so that the displayed value is equal to the set pressure.

      7. Perform initialization and check that initialization completes.

      8. Check and record the value of the Data List item "Temperature in Tire". (Ts)

      9. Check and record the ambient temperature during tire pressure adjustment. (Tm)

      10. Readjust the tire pressure according to the difference between the tire internal temperature (Ts) and the ambient temperature (Tm). (P)

        Tech Tips

        Tire internal temperature: Ts, Ambient temperature: Tm, Tire pressure readjustment value: P

        P = (Specified Pressure) + (Ts - Tm)

      11. Check the pressure adjustment value with the Data List item "Tire Inflation Pressure".

      Note

      for ECE-R64 Type:

      If the tire pressure is decreased approximately 20 kPa (0.2 kgf/cm2, 2.9 psi) or more in order to adjust the tire pressure, even if the adjusted tire pressure is 80% or more than the tire pressure set during system initialization, the tire pressure warning light may illuminate if the tire pressure drops below 80% of the tire pressure set when the tires are warmed. In this case, perform initialization again.

    4. A0029VG

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

      Maximum Tire Runout
      1.4 mm (0.0551 in.)

  2. ROTATE TIRES


    1. A0027X2C01
      B003ZIE Front

      Rotate the tires as shown in the illustration.

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

    2. w/ Tire Pressure Warning System:


      1. Perform initialization.

  3. INSPECT AND ADJUST WHEEL BALANCE


    1. A002AMGC01
      *a 25 mm (0.984 in.)

      Inspect and adjust the off-the-car balance.

      Maximum 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.

      Tech Tips

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