Whee
l Replacemen t

Consideration s

Damaged wheels must be

replaced. For example, replace
wheels if they are bent, cracked or

heavily rusted, or if wheel nuts
often become loose. Also replace

wheels that leak air (except some
aluminum wheels that can be

repaired). See your Honda dealer.

Do not use bent wheels that have

been straightened, and do not use
tubes in leaking wheels designed

for tubeless tires. Such wheels

may have structural damage and
could fail without warning.

Maximum loads, maximum

inflation pressures, wheel

identification codes, and wheel

sizes are stamped on each wheel.

Service-tested and approved
wheels are available from your
Honda dealer.
When obtaining wheels for any
reason from any other source, the
replacement wheels should be
equal in load capacity, inflation
pressure capacity, diameter, width, offset and mounting configuration
to those originally installed on
your vehicle. A wheel of the
wrong size or type may adversely
affect load carrying capacity, wheel
and bearing life, brake cooling,
speedometer/odometer calibration,
stopping ability, headlight aim,
bumper height, vehicle ground clearance, and tire or tire chain
clearance to the body and chassis.
Replacement with used wheels is
not advised: They may have been subjected to harsh treatment or very high mileage and could fail
without warning.
Installing wheels and/or tires that
have a higher load carrying limit
than those that originally came on
your vehicle does not increase the
GAWR or GVWR of the vehicle.
Driving Tip s

Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR)

System

The Exhaust Gas Recirculation(EGR) system takes some of the
exhaust gas and routes it back into
the intake manifold. Adding
exhaust gas to the air/fuel mixture
reduces the amount of NOx
produced when the fuel is burned.

Three-Way Catalytic Converter

The Three-Way Catalytic
Converter is in the exhaust system. Through chemical
reactions, it converts HC, CO, and
NOx in the engine's exhaust to
carbon dioxide (CO 2), dinitrogen
(N 2), and water vapor.
Replacement Parts

The emissions control systems aredesigned and certified to work
together in reducing emissions to
levels that comply with the Clean Air Act. To make sure the
emissions remain low, you should use only new Genuine Honda
replacement parts or their
equivalent for repairs. Using lower quality parts may increasethe emissions from your vehicle.
The emissions control systems are
covered by warranties separate
from the rest of your vehicle.
Read your warranty manual for more information.

T Tir e

Qualit y Gradin g

The tires on your vehicle meet all U.S. Federal Safety
Requirements. All tires are also
graded for treadwear, traction, and
temperature performanceaccording to Department of
Transportation (DOT) standards.
The following explains these

gradings.
