matter from the wheel contact
surface.

contact surface, the wheel nuts
may loosen while the vehicle is
in motion, and the tire may
come off the vehicle.
Install the spare tire and loosely tighten each wheel nut by
hand by approximately the same amount.
Vehicles with a compact spare tire
Tighten the nuts until the
tapered portion comes into
loose contact with the disc
wheel seat.
Vehicles with a full-size spare tire

come into contact with the
wheel.
