2004 DODGE NEON wheel alignment

CAUTION!
Replacing original tires with tires of a different size
may result in false speedometer and odometer read-
ings.
Alignment And Balance
Poor suspension alignment may result in:
²Fast tire wear.
²Uneven tire wear, such as feathering and one-sided
wear.
²Vehicle pull to right or left.Tires may also cause the vehicle to pull to the left or right.
Alignment will not correct this condition. See your dealer
for proper diagnosis.
Improper alignment will not cause vehicle vibration.
Vibration may be a result of tire and wheel out-of-
balance. Proper balancing will reduce vibration and
avoid tire cupping and spotty wear.
Tire Chains
If driving conditions require tire chains for your vehicle,
chains that meet SAE class ªSº requirements can be used,
but they must be installed on tire sizes P175/70R14,
185/65R14, P185/65R14, 185/60R15, or P185/60R15 tires.
Contact your local dealership or tire dealer for these tire
sizes.
