TIRE AND WHEEL SYSTEM INSPECTION


  1. INSPECT TIRE


    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)
      235/60R18 103V

      220 (2.2, 32)*1

      240 (2.4, 35)*2

      220 (2.2, 32)*1

      260 (2.6, 38)*2
      235/55R19 101V

      220 (2.2, 32)*1

      250 (2.5, 36)*2

      220 (2.2, 32)*1

      280 (2.8, 41)*2

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

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

    2. A019OMC

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

      Maximum Tire Runout
      1.4 mm (0.0551 in.) or less

  2. ROTATE TIRE


    1. A019KQCE05

      If the spare tire uses a different type of wheel than the other tires, rotate the tires as shown by (A) in the illustration. If the spare tire has the same type of wheel as the other tires, rotate the tires, including the spare tire, as shown by (B) in the illustration.

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

  3. INSPECT WHEEL BALANCE


    1. for 18 inch Wheel:

        Text in Illustration
        *a 25 mm (0.984 in.)

        Check 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 stick-on type balance weights for both the inner and outer side.

    2. for 19 inch Wheel:


      1. Check and adjust the off-the-car balance.

        *a 25 mm (0.984 in.) - -
        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


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

        • Type B: Use stick-on type balance weights for both the inner and outer side.
