Wheel Removal

 

 
Slacken the wheel nuts, jack the car up until the wheel is clear of the 
ground, remove the nuts and withdraw the wheel. 
 

Inspection

 

 
Clean the rim and examine the rivets or welds securing the rim to the 
centre. Minor damage to the rim may be repaired provided that it is 
confined to the flange tip area. 
 

Refitting

 

 
Wheel nuts must be fitted with the tapered side towards the wheel 
and tightened to 6.91-7.6 kg/m (50-55 lb/ft) 
 

Valves and caps 

When checking tyre pressures always ensure that the dust cap is 
replaced on the valve and tightened down firmly by hand only. The 
cap prevents the ingress of dirt and acts as an extra barrier against 
leakage should the valve fail. New valve cores can be fitted using a 
valve coring tool (Figure 3). 
 
When replacing a tyre, a new tubeless valve complete should also be 
fitted. 
 

Wheel and tyre balance

 

Unbalance in wheel and tyre assemblies will be responsible for various 
effects such as wheel wobble, abnormal war of tyres and suspension 
components, vibration through the steering or, in extreme cases the 
whole vehicle. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

 

 

Figure 3   Valve fitting tool 

 
Wheels should be balanced when new tyres are fitted. This can be 
done statically but all tyre suppliers should have a dynamic balancing 
machine. Failing to have the wheels balanced is false economy as the 
tyre life will be noticeably better with the wheels balanced.
