. When tires are reinstalled after
being uninstalled from the
wheels, use equipment such as a
leverless automatic tire changer.
It is only possible to reuse the
tires when they have no cracks
and/or deformations on the bead
portion. However, if you use a
lever-type tire changer, cracks
and deformation may occur on
the bead portion of the tires
meaning that the tires cannot be
reused.
. Make sure the tire valve stem cap
is installed and that the valve
stem is tight. When installing the
cap, make sure to tighten the cap
by hand. If a tool is used to
tighten the cap, the cap may be
damaged.

.Never use retread tires.
. For additional information re-
garding tires, refer to “Important
Tire Safety Information” (US) or
“Tire Safety Information” (Cana-
da) in the Warranty Information
Booklet.
. Always use tires of the specified
type, size, brand, construction
(bias, bias-belted, radial or run-
flat), and tread pattern on all four
wheels. Failure to do so may
result in a circumference differ-
ence between tires on the front
and rear axles which will cause
excessive tire wear and may da-
mage the transmission, transfer
case and differential gears.

NOTE:.
As soon as possible, tighten the
wheel nuts to the specified torque
with a torque wrench.
Wheel nut tightening torque:
Except for NISMO models 97 ft-lb (132 N·m)

The wheel nuts must be kept
tightened to specification at all
times. It is recommended that
wheel nuts be tightened to speci-
fications at each lubrication inter-
val.
