Tire Repair
Description
Tires are designed and engineered for each specific vehicle. They provide the best overall performance for normal
operation. The ride and handling characteristics match the vehicle’s requirements. With proper care they will give
excellent reliability, traction, skid resistance, and tread life.
WARNING!
Failure to equip the vehicle with tires having adequate speed capability can result in sudden tire failure.
In order to maintain the speed capability of the vehicle, replacement tires must have speed ratings equal to or
higher than those fitted to the vehicle as original equipment. If tires with lower speed ratings are fitted, the vehi-
cle’s handling may be affected and the speed capability of the vehicle may be lowered to the maximum speed
capability of the replacement tires. To avoid an accident resulting in severe or fatal injury, consult the tire man-
ufacturer in regards to maximum speed ratings.
Replacement Procedure
Note the following guidelines when replacing a tire:
•It is recommended that tires equivalent to the original equipment tires be used when replacement is needed.
• Failure to use equivalent replacement tires may adversely affect the safety and handling of the vehicle.
• The use of tires smaller than the minimum tire size approved for the vehicle can result in tire overloading and
failure.
• Use tires that have the approved load rating for the vehicle and never overload them.
• Failure to equip the vehicle with tires having adequate speed capability can result in sudden tire failure and
loss of vehicle control.
• The use of oversize tires may cause interference with vehicle components. Under extremes of suspension and
steering travel, interference with vehicle components may cause tire damage.
Perform the following when replacing a tire: 1. Raise and support the vehicle.
2. Remove the wheel mounting nuts and the wheel assembly.
3. Deflate the tire completely before removing the tire from the wheel.
4. Use lubrication such as a mild soap solution when dismounting or mounting tire.
5. Replace the tire with a tire approved for the vehicle.
6. Use tools free of burrs or sharp edges which could damage the tire or wheel rim.
7. Before mounting tire on wheel, make sure all rust is removed from the rim bead and repaint if necessary.
8. Balance the wheel assembly.
9. Install the wheel assembly and install the wheel mounting nuts. (Tighten: Wheel mounting nuts to 110 N·m)
Repair Procedure
Note the following guidelines when performing a tire repair:
•For proper repairing, a radial tire must be removed from the wheel.
• Repairs should only be made if the defect, or puncture, is in the tread area.
• The tire should be replaced if the puncture is located in the sidewall.
Perform the following when repairing a tire: 1. Raise and support the vehicle.
2. Remove the wheel mounting nuts and the wheel assembly.
3. Deflate the tire completely before removing the tire from the wheel.
4. Use lubrication such as a mild soap solution when dismounting or mounting tire.
5. Repair the tire only if the defect, or puncture, is in the tread area.
6. Use tools free of burrs or sharp edges which could damage the tire or wheel rim.
7. Before mounting tire on wheel, make sure all rust is removed from the rim bead and repaint if necessary.

NOTE :
A wheel requiring 5g or less of weight per side is con-
sidered to be within the proper specifications for a
wheel balance. 4. Install the appropriate wheel weights on the inner (2) and outer (1) edges of the rim until the wheel is
balanced within specifications.
NOTE :
Not more than one wheel weight can be attached to
each side of the wheel, with its maximum weight not
exceeding 40g.

Tire Rotation
Description
Tires on the front and rear operate at different loads and perform different steering, driving, and braking functions.
For these reasons they wear at unequal rates and tend to develop irregular wear patterns. These effects can be
reduced by rotating the tires at regular intervals.
The benefits of tire rotation are:
•Increase tread life
• Maintain traction levels
• A smooth, quiet ride

The suggested method of tire rotation is shown. Other rotation methods can be used, but they will not provide all the
tire longevity benefits.
NOTE :
Only the four-tire rotation method may be used if the vehicle is equipped with a compact or temporary spare tire.1. Raise and support the vehicle.
2. Remove the wheel mounting nuts and the wheel assembly.
3. Rotate the tire to the desired location.
CAUTION:
Use caution not to damage wheel weights during tire and wheel installation.
4. Install the wheel assembly and install the wheel mounting nuts. (Tighten: Wheel mounting nuts to 110 N·m)
Directional Tires
Some vehicles may be fitted with special high-performance tires having a directional tread pattern. These tires are
designed to improve traction on wet pavement. To obtain the full benefits of this design, the tires must be installed so
that they rotate in the correct direction. This is indicated by arrows on the tire sidewalls. When being installed, extra
care is needed to ensure that this direction of rotation is maintained.
1. Remove the wheel mounting nuts and the wheel assembly.
2. Rotate the tire to the desired location.
CAUTION:
Use caution not to damage wheel weights during tire and wheel installation.
