(1) Tread wear indicator
(2) Indicator location mark
2) Check that the depth of the tread groove is more than 1.6 mm (0.06 in.).
To help you check this, the tires have
molded-in tread wear indicators in the
grooves. When the indicators appear
on the tread surface, the remaining
depth of the tread is 1.6 mm (0.06 in.)
or less and the tire should be replaced.
3) Check for abnormal wear, cracks and damage. Any tires with cracks or other
damage should be replaced. If any tires
show abnormal wear, have them
inspected by your SUZUKI dealer. 4) Check for loose wheel nuts.
5) Check that there are no nails, stones or
other objects sticki ng into the tires.

EXAMPLE
CAUTION
Hitting curbs and running over rocks
can damage tires and affect wheel
alignment. Have tires and wheel
alignment checked periodically by
your SUZUKI dealer.
WA R N I N G
• Your SUZUKI vehicle is equipped
with tires which are all the same
type and size. This is important to
ensure proper steering and han-
dling 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 cer-
tain 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.
NOTICE
Replacing the original tires with tires
of a different size may result in false
speedometer or odometer readings.
Check with your SUZUKI dealer
before purchasing replacement tires
that differ in size from the original
tires.
NOTICE
For 4WD models, replacing a tire with
one of a different size, or using differ-
ent brands among the four tires can
result in damage to the drive train.
