TYRE BALANCING
Incorrect tyre balance will cause steering vibra-
tion and uneven tyre wear. The vehicle tyres are
balanced during production but may need further
balancing throughout the life of the tyres.
It is recommended that the tyres be balanced on
the car for best results and that the tyres are
balanced whenever they have been removed
from the wheel for repair.

TYRE REPLACEMENT
Tyres must be replaced when the wear indica-
tors appear as a solid bar across the tyre tread.
At this point, the remaining tread depth will be
approximately 1.6 mm. In addition to this, the tyre
must be replaced if any portion of the tread has
become bald or if there are any lumps, bulges or
deep cuts in the sidewalls or tread.

Hyundai Approved Wheels.
WARNING:
Driving on worn or defective tyres is danger-
ous. Worn tyres may cause loss of steering
control and a serious deterioration of braking
efficiency. Defective tyres may cause vibra-
tion and loss of control through blow outs.
Tyres of different size, construction or tread
pattern should not be intermixed on the same
axle. Radial and cross ply tyres should not be
used on the same vehicle.
The use of tyres and wheels of non approved
sizes can be dangerous.
Replacement tyres must be of the recommended
size and rating and should be of the same manu-
facture and tread pattern on each axle.
