    2. A01DZZI

      Using a dial indicator, measure the tire runout.

      Maximum tire runout
      3.0 mm (0.118 in.)

  2. ROTATE TIRE


    1. A01E33ME01
      Text in Illustration
      *a Front of the Vehicle
      *b Vehicle Wheels and Spare Tire Wheel are Same Type
      *c Vehicle Wheels are Aluminum but Spare Tire Wheel is Steel

      Rotate the tires as shown in the illustration.

      Torque:
      for 2WD (steel wheel)
      152 N*m  { 1550 kgf*cm, 112 ft.*lbf }
      for 2WD (aluminum wheel)
      121 N*m  { 1234 kgf*cm, 89 ft.*lbf }
      for 4WD and Pre-Runner
      105 N*m  { 1071 kgf*cm, 77 ft.*lbf }

  3. INSPECT WHEEL BALANCE


    1. A01E0WH

      Check and adjust the off-the-car balance.

      Tire Size Standard Imbalance after Adjustment
      205R16C 8PR 110/108S 14 g (0.033 lb) or less
      205/70R15C 8PR 106/104S
      215/65R16C 6PR 106/104S
      255/70R15C 112/110S
      265/65R17 112S 13 g (0.029 lb) or less
      225/70R17C 108/106S

      Tech Tips


      • The inner and outer side balance weights should be installed by clipping them to the rim.

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