INSPECTION PROCEDURE 1. INSPECT TIRE
(a) Check the tires for wear and proper inflation pressure. Standard cold tire inflation pressure: |
Tire size | Front kPa (kgf/cm2, psi) |
Rear kPa (kgf/cm2, psi) | |
P255/70R18 | 210 (2.1, 30) |
230 (2.3, 33) | | P275/65R18 | |
P275/55R20 | | P255/70R18 (Spare Tire)
P275/65R18 (Spare Tire) |
230 (2.3, 33) |
| (b) Using a dial indicator, check the tire runout. Tire runout:
3.0 mm (0.118 in.) or less | |
2. ROTATE TIRE | (a) Rotate the tires as shown in the illustration.
Torque: for Aluminum Wheel : 131 N·m {1336 kgf·cm, 97 ft·lbf}
for Steel Wheel : 209 N·m {2131 kgf·cm, 154 ft·lbf} Text in Illustration |
|
3. INSPECT WHEEL BALANCE |
(a) for Steel Wheel Type: Check and adjust the off-the-car balance.
Standard Imbalance After Adjustment: 8.0 g (0.0180 lb) or less
NOTICE:
- Use a cleaning detergent to remove dirt, oil and water from the surface where the balance weight is to be attached.
- Do not touch the adhesive surface of the tape.
- Attach a sticking-type balance weight to the flat surface (A) shown in the illustration.
Width (A):
25 mm (0.984 in.)
- Push the balance weight firmly so that it securely adheres to the position.
- Do not reuse the balance weight.
HINT:
- For chrome type wheels, the inner side balance weight should be installed by clipping it to the rim.
- If necessary, check and adjust the on-the-car balance.
| |
| (b) for Aluminum Wheel Type: Check and adjust the off-the-car balance.
Standard Imbalance After Adjustment: 8.0 g (0.0180 lb) or less
NOTICE:
- Use a cleaning detergent to remove dirt, oil and water from the surface where the balance weight is to be adhered.
- Do not touch the sticking surface of the tape.
- Adhere a sticking type balance weight to the flat surface (A) shown in the illustration.
Width (A):
25 mm (0.984 in.)
- Push the balance weight firmly to adhere it to the position.
- Do not reuse the balance weight.
HINT: If necessary, check and adjust the on-the-car balance. |
