GENERAL
Good handling and maximum tire mileage are directly related
to the care of wheels and tires. Regularly inspect wheels and
tires for damage and wear. If handling problems occur, see
1.25 TROUBLESHOOTING
or
Table 2-3.
See
1.9 TIRES AND WHEELS
for tire pressures. Keep tires
inflated to the recommended air pressure. Always balance
the wheel after replacing a tire.

WARNING
Do not inflate any tire beyond its maximum inflation
pressure as specified on tire sidewall. Overinflation may
cause tire to suddenly deflate which could result in death
or serious injury.
TROUBLESHOOTING
See
Figure 2-4.
Check tire inflation pressure at least once
each week. At the same time, inspect tire tread for punctures,
cuts, breaks and other damage. Repeat the inspection before
long trips.
