TIRE AND WHEEL: TIRE AND WHEEL SYSTEM:

INSPECTION

1. INSPECT TIRES
(a) Check the tires for wear and proper inflation pressure.
Cold tire inflation pressure:





When driving under the above vehicle conditions at sustained high speeds above 160 km/h (100 mph), in countries where such speeds are permitted by law, inflate the front and rear tires to 240 kPa (2.4 kgf-cm2, 35 psi) provided that it does not exceed the maximum cold tire inflation pressure molded on the tire sidewall.





(b) Using a dial indicator, check the tire runout.
Tire runout:
1.4 mm (0.055 in.) or less
2. ROTATE TIRES





(a) Rotate the tires as shown in illustration (A). If the vehicle is equipped with a grand spare tire, rotate the tires as shown in illustration (B).
3. INSPECT WHEEL BALANCE
(a) Check and adjust the off-the-car balance.





(1) Steel wheel
Imbalance after adjustment:
8.0 g (0.018 lb.) or less

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





(2) Others (Non-steel wheel)
Imbalance after adjustment:
8.0 g (0.018 lb.) or less

- Use a cleaning detergent to remove dirt, oil, and water from the surface where the balance weight attaches.
- Do not touch the adhesive surface of the tape.
- Attach the adhesive type balance weight to the flat position shown in the illustration.
- Push the balance weight securely with a finger to adhere it to the position.
- Do not reuse balance weights.

- Inner side balance weight should be installed by clipping it to the rim.
- If necessary, check and adjust the on-the-car balance.
