Replacement with used wheels is not
recommended as they may have been
subjected to rough treatment or high
mileage and could fail without warning.
Also, bent wheels which have been
straightened may have structural dam-
age and therefore should not be used.
Never use an inner tube in a leaking
wheel which is designed for a tube-
less tire. Aluminum wheel precautions
After driving your vehicle the first
1600 km (1000 miles), check that
the wheel nuts are tight.
If you have rotated, repaired or
changed your tires, check that the
wheel nuts are still tight after driv-
ing 1600 km (1000 miles).
When using tire chains, be careful
not to damage the aluminum
wheels.
Use only the Toyota wheel nuts
and wrench designed for your alu-
minum wheels.
When balancing your wheels, use
only Toyota balance weights or
equivalent and a plastic or rubber
hammer.
As with any wheel, periodically
check your aluminum wheels for
damage. If damaged, replace im-
mediately.
