    2. A000972

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

      Maximum tire runout
      1.4 mm (0.0551 in.)

  2. ROTATE TIRES


    1. A0007XL

      Rotate the tires as shown in the illustration.

      Text in Illustration
      A0005GR Front
      Torque:
      103 N*m  { 1049 kgf*cm, 76 ft.*lbf }

  3. INSPECT AND ADJUST WHEEL BALANCE


    1. A0007G9E19
      Text in Illustration
      *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.
