WHEELS AND TIRES
NOTE:
All wheel fasteners are important attaching parts in that they could affect the performance of vital parts
and systems, and / or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with one of the same
part number or with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary. Do not use a replacement part
of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified during reassembly to as-
sure proper retention of all parts.
There is to be no welding as it may result in extensive damage and weakening of the metal.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
TIRES
This vehicle is equipped with following tire. P215 / 65 R16, 215 / 65 R16 or 235 / 60 R16
The tires are of tubeless type. The tires are designed to operate satisfactorily with loads up to the full rated load
capacity when inflated to the recommended inflation pressure.
Correct tire pressures and driving habits have an important influence on tire life. Heavy cornering, excessively rapid
acceleration, and unnecessary sharp braking increase tire wear.
WHEELS
Standard equipment wheels are following steel wheel. 16
6 1 / 2 J or 16
7JJ
REPLACEMENT TIRES
When replacement is necessary, the original equipment type tire should be used. Refer to the Tire Placard. Re-
placement tires should be of the same size, load range and construction as those originally on the vehicle. Use
of any other size or type tire may affect ride, handling, speedometer / odometer calibration, vehicle ground clear-
ance and tire or snow chain clearance to the body and chassis.
NOTE:
Do not mix different types of tires on the same vehicle such as radial, bias and bias-belted tires except in
emergencies, because vehicle handling may be seriously affected and may result in loss of control.
It is recommended that new tires be installed in pairs on the same axle. If necessary to replace only one tire, it
should be paired with the tire having the most tread, to equalize braking traction.

3F-2 WHEELS AND TIRES
The metric term for tire inflation pressure is the kilopascal (kPa).
Tire pressures will usually be printed in both kPa and psi on the Tire
Placard. Metric tire gauges are available from tool suppliers. The
chart, left table, converts commonly used inflation pressures from
kPa to psi.kPakgf / cm2psi

WHEELS REPLACEMENT
Wheels must be replaced if they are bent, dented, have excessive
lateral or radial runout, leak air through welds, have elongated bolt
holes, if lug nuts won't stay tight, or if they are heavily rusted.
Wheels with greater runout than shown in left figure may cause ob-
jectional vibrations.
Wheels for replacement must be equivalent to the originally
equipped wheels in load capacity, diameter, rim width, off-set and
mounting configuration. A wheel of improper size or type may affect
wheel and bearing life, brake cooling, speedometer / odometer cal-
ibration, ground clearance to the body and chassis.
To measure the wheel runout, it is necessary to use accurate dial
indicator. The tire may be on or off the wheel. The wheel should be
installed to the wheel balancer of the like for proper measurement.
Take measurements of both lateral runout and radial runout at both
inside and outside of the rim flange. With dial indicator set in place
securely, turn the wheel one full revolution slowly and record every
reading of the indicator.
When the measured runout exceeds the specification and correc-
tion by the balancer adjustment is impossible, replace the wheel.
If the reading is affected by welding, paint or scratch, it should be
ignored.
Lateral runout limit ªaº: 1.20 mm (0.047 in.)
Radial runout limit ªbº: 1.20 mm (0.047 in.)
METRIC LUG NUTS AND WHEEL STUDS
All models use metric lug nuts and wheel studs (size M12 x 1.25).

TRANSFER 7D-1
The aluminum transfer case directly connected to the
back of the transmission contains the input gear,
countershaft & gear, output rear shaft, output low gear
and output front shaft (for front drive) connected by
way of the hyvo-chain.
The transfer has such a selective mechanism as to
enable the shift control lever to make selection of high
speed (direct connection with transmission output:
main shaft), low speed (speed reduction by input
gear, counter gear and output low gear) or neutral by
way of the reduction sleeve located between input
gear and output low gear, and selection of two-wheel-
drive (high speed only) or four-wheel-drive (high or
low speed) by way of the front drive clutch sleeve lo-cated at the center of the output rear shaft. Also, with
a synchronizer installed to the front drive clutch, it is
possible to change the drive mode between 2WD
(high speed only) and 4WD (high speed only) even
while running.
The front drive shift fork has an auxiliary spring to
make a smooth shift from 4H to 2H possible.
The case has an oil gutter and a plate at synchronizer
to provide proper lubrication even under the strict
conditions of use.
WARNING:
For towing the vehicle for the purpose of repair or
the like, follow the towing instructions in OWN-
ER'S MANUAL.

WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System

Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to ªAir Bag System Components and Wiring Location Viewº under ªGener-
al Descriptionº in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing service on
or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and ªService Precau-
tionsº under ªOn-Vehicle Serviceº in air bag system section before performing service on or around
the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in unintentional
activation of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these two conditions may
result in severe injury.

Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
ªLOCKº position and the negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system may
be activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).
