5 TIRES AND WHEELS 2E-5 MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR ON-VEHICLE SERVICE WHEELS AND TIRES Removal & Installation Procedure 1. Inspection of tire Check tread area for tread surface, crack, damage by nail in or stones. Replace or repair if necessary. 2. Wear limit. Limit 1.6mm l Replace the tire if tread-wear indicator of the tread grooves appears where marked ' '. l The wear limit of snow tire is the same as normal tire (1.6mm) and indicator location is marked ' '. 3. Runout measurement. l Excessive runout of tires and wheels can cause the abnormal wear of tire. Using a dial indicator, measure wheel and tire runout. l Measure radial runout at the rim flange and center of the tire tread area. Standard 2.66mm l Measure lateral runout at the tire bead area of the wheel and tire sidewall. Standard 2.03mm Notice If runout is excessive, replace the tire or wheel.

6 2E-6 TIRES AND WHEELS 4. Tire pressure inspection. l Tire pressure. Front & Rear (P235/75R15) 2 2.1kg/cm (30PSI) l Check tread contact with road. Notice l If underinflated, tire may come away from the wheel during rapid steering. l An overinflated tire will cause a hard riding and uneven wear. 5. Wheel balance. l Balance weights should be on each side. When the wheel is out of balance or a tire has been repaired, be sure to balance the wheel again. l If total weight is over 150g, readjust the balance by reinstalling the tire on the wheel. l Balance weight should not protrude from the wheel rim over 3mm. l For aluminum wheel, use aluminum wheel balance weight only.

7 TIRES AND WHEELS 2E-7 l To correct unbalance, install equal weights 180 opposite each other, one on the inside of the wheel and one on the outside, at the point of unbalance. l Balance Weight 10g 20g 30g 40g 50g 60g 0.4oz 0.7oz 1.10oz 1.40oz 1.80oz 2.1oz 6. Cautions for installation and removal. l Clean the mounting surfaces of hub and wheel. l Do not apply grease or oil on the nuts and bolts (It will cause looseness and poor tightening). l Using a jack, lift up the tire about 3cm from the ground. l Tighten nuts in a criss-cross pattern 2-3 times.
