Replace Tires
When replacing a tire, only use a new
tire with the same size, load range,
speed rating and construction type.
Using a tire with other size or
structure will adversely affect the
drivability, ride comfort, calibration of
speedometer/odometer, ground
clearance and the clearance between
the vehicle body and tire/snow chain.
CAUTION
Follow the instructions below.
Failure to abide by them may cause
a server accident or even death.
y It is dangerous to mix tires of
different construction (bias,
bias-belted or radial); otherwise
you could get into steering
trouble and even lose control of
the vehicle.
y
Only use the tires of the
recommended size. Tires of
other size may cause steering
trouble and even losing control
of the vehicle.
y
Don’t mix tires of different
brands, size, construction and
tread patterns. Mixing tires may
cause steering trouble and even
losing control of the vehicle.
Never mount a used tire on your
vehicle.
Using a tire with unknown past use is
very dangerous.
You are recommended to replace all
four tires at the same time, or at least
you must replace the two tires on the
same axle.
See “If You Have a Flat Tire” in
Chapter 6 for tire replacement
procedure.
Keep the wheels in balance after
replacing tires.
Unbalanced tire may adversely affect
the drivability and tire life. The tire
may lose balance during normal use.
Therefore, check the wheels
irregularly to ensure they are in good
balance.
When replacing a tubeless tire, the
tire valve must also be replaced.
