INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENTS
Check the following, and adjust or replace as
necessary.
1. Air pressure
Check the air pressure of all tires, including the
spare tire, with an air pressure gauge.
(Refer to page 12—2.)
Caution
The air pressure must be measured when the
tire is cold.
2. Tire wear
Specifications
Remaining tread
Ordinary tires: 1.6 mm (0.063 in) min.
(Tire should be replaced if wear indicators are
exposed.)
Snow tires: 50% of tread
(Tire should be replaced if wear indicators are
exposed.)
Troubleshooting guide
Abnormal tire wear patterns shown in the illustra-
tion can occur. Refer to the chart for the probable
causes and remedies.
Probable cause Remedy
(a) • Underinflation (both sides worn) • Incorrect camber (one side worn) • Hard cornering • Lack of rotation
• Measure and adjust pressure • Repair or replace axle and suspension parts • Reduce speed • Rotate tires
(b) • Overinflation
• Lack of rotation
• Measure and adjust pressure • Rotate tires
(c) • Incorrect toe-in • Adjust toe-in
(d) • Incorrect camber or caster • Malfunctioning suspension • Unbalanced wheel • Out-of-round brake drum or disc • Other mechanical con-ditions • Lack of rotation
• Repair or replace axle and suspension parts • Repair or replace • Balance or replace • Correct or replace
• Correct or replace
• Rotate tires

4. Cracks, damage, or foreign matter (such as metal
pieces, nails, and stones) in the tire and cracks,
deformation, and damage to the wheel
5. Loose wheel lug nut(s)
6. Air leaking from the valve stem
TIRE ROTATION
To prolong tire life and assure uniform wear, rotate
the tires every 6,000 km (3,750 miles) or sooner if ir-
regular wear develops.
Caution
a) Do not include "TEMPORARY USE ONLY"
spare tire in rotation.
b) After rotating the tires, adjust each tire to
the specified air pressure. (Refer to page
12—2.)
Note
The optional unidirectional wheels are marked
to indicate direction of travel.
