      *b for 17 Inch Wheels

      Check and adjust the off-the-car balance.

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

      Standard Imbalance after Adjustment
      6.0 g (0.0132 lb) or less

      Note


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

      • Do not touch the adhesive surface of the tape.

      • Attach 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 securely with your finger so that it securely adheres to the position.

      • Do not reuse the balance weight.
