A WARNING
Hitting curbs and running over rocks
can damage tires and affect wheel
alignment.
Be sure to have tires and
wheel alignment checked periodically by your SUZUKI dealer.
4) Check for loose wheel nuts. 5) Check that there are no nails, stones or
other objects sticking into the tires.
A WARNING
• Your SUZUKI is equipped with tires
which are all the same type and
size. This is important to ensure
proper steering and handling of the
vehicle. Never mix tires of different
size
or type on the four wheels of
your vehicle. The size and type of
tires used should
be only those
approved by SUZUKI as standard or optional equipment for your
vehicle.
• Replacing the wheels and tires
equipped on your vehicle with certain combinations of aftermarket
wheels and tires can significantly
change the steering
and handling
characteristics of your vehicle. • Therefore, use only those wheel and tire combinations approved by SUZUKI as standard or optional
equipment for your vehicle.

Replacing the original tires with tires of a different size may result in false
