MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR ON-VEHICLE SERVICE WHEELS AND TIRES Removal & Installation Procedure
1. Inspection of tireCheck tread area for tread surface, crack, damage by nail
in or stones. Replace or repair if necessary.
Replace the tire if tread-wear indicator of the tread
grooves appears where marked ' ' .
The wear limit of snow tire is the same as normal tire
(1.6mm) and indicator location is marked ' '.
Limit 1.6mm
Standard
2.66mm
Standard
2.03mm
2. Wear limit.
3. Runout measurement.
Excessive runout of tires and wheels can cause the
abnormal wear of tire. Using a dial indicator, measure wheel and tire runout.
Measure radial runout at the rim flange and center of
the tire tread area.
Measure lateral runout at the tire bead area of the wheel
and tire sidewall. Notice
If runout is excessive, replace the tire or wheel.

2E-6 TIRES AND WHEELS
4. Tire pressure inspection. Tire pressure.
Check tread contact with road.
Notice
If underinflated, tire may come away from the wheel
during rapid steering.
An overinflated tire will cause a hard riding and uneven
wear.

5. Wheel balance. Balance weights should be on each side. When the wheel
is out of balance or a tire has been repaired, be sure to balance the wheel again.
If total weight is over 150g, readjust the balance by
reinstalling the tire on the wheel.
Balance weight should not protrude from the wheel rim
over 3mm.
For aluminum wheel, use aluminum wheel balance weight
only.

TIRES AND WHEELS 2E-7
To correct unbalance, install equal weights 180 ° opposite
each other, one on the inside of the wheel and one on the outside, at the point of unbalance.
Balance Weight
6. Cautions for installation and removal. Clean the mounting surfaces of hub and wheel.
Do not apply grease or oil on the nuts and bolts (It will
cause looseness and poor tightening).
Using a jack, lift up the tire about 3cm from the ground.
