4. Wheel Balancing
A: ADJUSTMENT
NOTE:
The balance weight for the outside of the wheel
uses an adhesive type weight. Change the setting
of the wheel balancer to an adhesive type weight.
1) Remove the balance weights.
CAUTION:
•Be careful not to damage the wheel.
•Completely remove the double–sided tape of
the adhesive type weight from the wheel.
2) Using the wheel balancer, measure wheel bal-
ance.
3) Select a weight close to the value measured by
wheel balancer.
CAUTION:
Use SUBARU genuine balance weights.
4) Install the selected weight to the point designat-
ed by the wheel balancer.
CAUTION:
•Remove grease from adhesive type weight
applying surface of wheel.
•Press the adhesive type weight by 25 N (2.5
kgf, 5.6 lb) or more per 5 g (0.18 oz) for more
then 2 seconds and attain full adhesion.
•The total weight of all adhesive weight on
models with transmitters (tire pressure sensor)
is to be 120 g (4.23 oz) or less.
