If runout is still excessive, perform the following:
²If the new high spot is within 102 mm (4.0 inch)
of the first high spot on the tire, replace the tire.
²If the new high spot is within 102 mm (4.0 inch)
of the first high spot on the wheel, the wheel may be
out of specification. Refer to Wheel Runout above.²If the new high spot is NOT within 102 mm (4.0
inch) of either high spot, draw an arrow on the tread
from new high spot toward the original (Fig. 7).
Break down the tire and remount it 90 degrees on
rim in that direction, then re-measure runout. This
will normally reduce the runout to an acceptable
amount.
(6) Once back together, road test the vehicle for at
least 5 miles, following the format described in Road
Test. If vibration persists, and all components tested
are within specification, the tires may have an exces-
sive radial force condition. Radial force variation can
only be checked as indicated below. If this equipment
is not available, consult with the tire manufacturer.
RADIAL FORCE VARIATION
Radial Force Variation can be checked using the
Hunter GSP 9700 Vibration Control System (Wheel
Balancer) or equivalent, if available. This type of
equipment helps to correct ride disturbances by
reducing the radial force variation of an assembly
through re-indexing of the tire to wheel.
The equipment manufacturer or DaimlerChrysler
Corporation may supply reference values as guide-
lines. Radial force measurements above the reference
value may not always result in a ride disturbance,
nor do they automatically mean the assembly compo-
nents are out of specification. Do not replace compo-
nents based on radial force values alone. Balancing,

testing must be performed as outlined in previous
sections of this diagnosis and testing procedure.
Use the Radial Force equipment to identify suspect
assemblies and minimize the radial forces. After all
suspect assemblies are optimized, reinstall the
assemblies and road test the vehicle. If a disturbance
still exists and all other vibration diagnostic proce-
dures have been completed, replace one tire or one
wheel at a time, starting with the assembly having
the highest force variation. Be sure to minimize each
new assembly. Road test the vehicle following each
replacement. Continue this process until the distur-
bance is resolved.
NOTE: When using Radial Force equipment, it is
critically important to set proper tire inflation pres-
sure and ensure centering of the wheel on the
equipment spindle.

STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TIRE AND WHEEL
BALANCE
NOTE: Balance equipment must be calibrated and
maintained per equipment manufacturer's specifica-
tions.
Wheel balancing can be accomplished with either
on-vehicle or off-vehicle equipment.
NOTE: If using on-vehicle balancing equipment, on
the driving axle, remove the opposite wheel and tire
assembly.It is recommended that a two-plane dynamic bal-
ancer be used when a wheel and tire assembly
requires balancing. A static balancer should only be
used when a two-plane balancer is not available.
Balance wheel and tire assemblies dynamically and
statically to less than 0.25 (
1¤4) ounce.
For static balancing, find location of heavy spot
causing imbalance. Counter balance wheel directly
opposite the heavy spot. Determine weight required
to counterbalance the area of imbalance. Place half of
this weight on theinnerrim flange and the other
half on theouterrim flange (Fig. 8).
For dynamic balancing, the balance equipment is
designed to indicate the location and amount of
weight to be applied to both the inner and outer rim
flanges (Fig. 9).
The aluminum wheels on this vehicle use a unique
wheel weight (Fig. 10). This wheel weight is designed
to fit the contoured surface of the wheel (Fig. 10).
When balancing an aluminum wheel, this wheel
weight must be used. Do not use any other type of
wheel weight. It will not properly fit the contour of
the wheel.
Always verify the Balance. When using off-vehicle
equipment, rotate assembly 180 degrees on balance
equipment to verify balance. Variation should not be
more than 0.125 (
1¤8) ounce. If variation is more than
0.125 ounce, balancing equipment could be malfunc-
tioning.
If difficult to balance, break down the wheel and
tire assembly and check for loose debris inside tire.
Prior to disassembly, mark (index) the tire at the
valve stem. Use this mark in order to remount the
tire in its original orientation with respect to the
wheel.

TIRES
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION - TIRE
Tires are designed and engineered for each specific
vehicle. They provide the best overall performance
for normal operation. The ride and handling charac-
teristics match the vehicle's requirements. With
proper care they will give excellent reliability, trac-
tion, skid resistance, and tread life.
Driving habits have more effect on tire life than
any other factor. Careful drivers will obtain, in most
cases, much greater mileage than severe use or care-
less drivers. A few of the driving habits which will
shorten the life of any tire are:
²Rapid acceleration
²Severe application of brakes
²High-speed driving
²Taking turns at excessive speeds
²Striking curbs and other obstacles
²Operating vehicle with over or under inflated
tire pressures
Radial ply tires are more prone to irregular tread
wear. It is important to follow the tire rotation inter-
val shown in the section on Tire Rotation. This will
help to achieve a greater tread-life potential.
TIRE IDENTIFICATION
Tire type, size, load index and speed rating are
encoded in the letters and numbers imprinted on the
side wall of the tire. Refer to the Tire Identification
chart to decipher the code. For example purposes, the
tire size P225/60 R 16 97 T is used in the chart. An
All Season type tire will also have eitherM+S,M&
SorM-S(indicating mud and snow traction)
imprinted on the side wall. An Extra or Light Load
marking ªXLº or ªLLº may also be listed on the side-
wall. The absence of an ªXLº or ªLLº marking infers
a standard load tire.

TIRE CHAINS
Refer to the owners manual supplied with the vehi-
cle to determine whether the use of tire chains is per-
mitted on this vehicle.
DESCRIPTION - RADIAL-PLY TIRES
Radial-ply tires improve handling, tread life, ride
quality and decrease rolling resistance.
Radial-ply tires must always be used in sets of four
and under no circumstances should they be used on
the front only. It is recommended that tires from dif-
ferent manufacturers NOT be mixed. They may be
mixed with a temporary spare tire when necessary. A
maximum speed of 80 km/h (50 mph) is recom-
mended while a temporary spare is in use.
Radial-ply tires have the same load-carrying capac-
ity as other types of tires of the same size. They also
use the same recommended inflation pressures.
DESCRIPTION - REPLACEMENT TIRES
WARNING: FAILURE TO EQUIP THE VEHICLE WITH
TIRES HAVING ADEQUATE SPEED CAPABILITY
CAN RESULT IN SUDDEN TIRE FAILURE.It is recommended that tires equivalent to the orig-
inal equipment tires be used when replacement is
needed.
Failure to use equivalent replacement tires may
adversely affect the safety and handling of the vehi-
cle.
The original equipment tires provide a proper com-
bination of many characteristics such as:
²Ride
²Noise
²Handling
²Durability
²Tread life
²Traction
²Rolling resistance
²Speed capability
The use of tires smaller than the minimum tire
size approved for the vehicle can result in tire over-
loading 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 capabil-
ity can result in sudden tire failure and loss of vehi-
cle control.
The use of oversize tires may cause interference
with vehicle components. Under extremes of suspen-
sion and steering travel, interference with vehicle
components may cause tire damage.
DESCRIPTION - SPARE TIRE (TEMPORARY)
The temporary (convenience) spare tire is designed
for emergency use only. The original tire should be
repaired and reinstalled, or replaced with a new, at
the first opportunity.
The temporary (convenience) spare tire should be
inflated to the pressure listed on its sidewall. Do not
exceed speeds of 80 km/h (50 mph) when the tempo-
rary spare tire is in use on the vehicle. Refer to the
Owner's Manual for more details.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TIRE NOISE
Unusual tire noise can be associated with tire and
wheel vibration or irregular tire wear. For vibration,
