DIAGNOSIS
WHEEL RUNOUT
Measure wheel runout with an accurate dial indicator.
Measurements 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.
Measure radial runout and lateral runout on both the in-
board and the outboard rim flanges. With the dial indicator
firmly seated next to the wheel and tire assembly, slowly
rotate the wheel one revolution and record the indicator
reading. If any measurement exceeds the following speci-
fications and there is a vibration that wheel balancing will
not correct, replace the wheel. Disregard any indicator
readings due to welds, paint runs, or scratches.
Steel Wheels
S Radial runout: 0.8 mm (0.03 inch)
S Lateral runout: 1.0 mm (0.04 inch)
Alloy Wheels
S Radial runout: 0.25 mm (0.01 inch)
S Lateral runout: 0.25 mm (0.01 inch)
Measure free radial runout on the center of the tire tread.
The tread can be taped to present a smooth surface. Mea-
sure free lateral runout on the outboard side of the tire
nearest to the tread.
