TIRE AND WHEEL SYSTEM INSPECTION


  1. INSPECT TIRES


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

      Cold Tire Inflation Pressure
      Tire Size

      Front

      kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)

      Rear

      kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)

      195/65R15 91H 250 (2.5, 36) 240 (2.4, 35)
      215/45R17 87W

      230 (2.3, 33)*1

      250 (2.5, 36)*2

      220 (2.2, 32)*1

      250 (2.5, 36)*2

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

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

    2. A003TW9

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

      Maximum tire runout
      1.4 mm (0.0551 in.)
  2. ROTATE TIRES

      *1 Front

      Rotate the tires as shown in the illustration.

  3. INSPECT WHEEL BALANCE


    1. A003TD2E08

      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 adhesive 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 securely with your finger to adhere it to the position.

      • Do not reuse the balance weight.

      Tech Tips

      The inner side balance weight should be installed by clipping it to the rim.
