GENERAL INSPECTION

Inspection Tread

Inspect the tread condition on the tire surface and
various damages resulting from the foreign material,
crack, stone or nail etc. If there is any damage in the
tire, repair or replace it.

2. Inspect the pressure of the tire surface and check

the inflation pressure.

Notice:

•

Lower than recommended pressure can cause
tire squeal on turns, hard steering, tire cord
breakage and tire rim bruises, etc.

•

Higher than recommended pressure can cause
hard ride, tire bruising or damage and rapid
tread wear at the center of the tire.

Tire Wear

•

Measure the depth of the tire tread. If the depth
of the tread is below the specified value, replace
the tire.

Inspection the Inflation of Tires

1. Inflation pressure

•

You can see the mark ‘   ’ in the groove, this is the
indicator of the tread wear limit.

•

The limit of the tread wear for all season tires are
1.6 mm as same as the general tires and the
platform mark indicates as ‘

’ .

2E-10  TIRES AND WHEELS

Inspection Wheel Runout

•

Measure wheel runout with an accurate dial
indicator. Measurement may be taken with the
wheels either on or off the vehicle, using an accurate
mounting surface such as a wheel balancer.
Measurements may be taken with or without the tire
mounted on the wheel.

1. Measure the dial runout and lateral runout on both

the inboard and outboard rim flanges.

Specification

Steel Wheel

•

Radial runout : 0.8 mm (0.03 inch)

•

Lateral runout : 1.0 mm (0.04 inch)

Alloy Wheels

•

Radial runout : 0.8 mm (0.03 inch)

•

Lateral runout : 1.0 mm (0.04 inch)

2. Measure free radial runout on the tire tread.

Specification

Steel and Alloy Wheels

•

Free radial runout : 1.5 mm (0.06 inch)

•

Free lateral runout : 1.5 mm (0.06 inch)

Notice: If any measurement exceeds the above
specifications, replace the applicable tires or
wheels.

Wheel Balance

Balance is the easiest procedure to perform and should
be done first if the vibration occurs at high speeds or
if the tires or the wheels are replaced.

When proceeding the wheel balancing procedure refer
to the following;

1. Do not the wheel weight over two at the inboard

and the outboard flanges.

2. The total weight ofthe wheel weight should not

exceed the 100 g (3.5 ounces)

3. Balancing the assemblies with the factory

aluminum wheels requires the use of the special
nylon-coated, clip-on wheel weights.

Rotation Tires

•

Front and rear tires perform different jobs and can
wear differently depending on the tires of road
driven, driving condition, etc.

The front tires will wear faster than the rear ones.
To avoid uneven wear of tires and to prolong tire
life, inspect and rotate the tires every 5,000 km
(3,100 miles). After rotating the tires, adjust the tire
inflation pressures and be sure to check wheel nuts
tightness.

Caution at replacement tires

•

Do not mix different types of tires on the same
vehicle such as radial, bias and bias-belted tires
except in emergencies, because vehicle handling
may be seriously affected and may result in loss of
control.
