MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE - Wheels & Tyres
CAUTION
• The jack should be placed below the body sill behind the front
wheel tyre for front wheel changing and before the rear wheel
tyre for rear wheel changing. Please refer to the sticker (Jack
location) fixed on the jack.
Do not work under the jacked up car without proper support.
Wheel Alignment :
Correct wheel alignment helps to ensure uniform tyre wear. You
should get your car’s wheel alignment checked regularly as per
recommendation.
In case uneven tyre wear is observed, the vehicle’s wheel alignment
should be checked as soon as possible.
Wheel Balancing :
Wheels are balanced at the factory. They have to be rebalanced as
per recommendations.
The wheels should be checked for balance if a tyre or tube is repaired.
Whenever a tyre or wheel rim is changed, the tyre needs to be
balanced.
1. Permissible imbalance for tyre with rim = 95 gm. cm. (max.)
2. Total balance weight should be within 140 gm on each side.
