1. Check the tires for wear and proper inflation pressure.
   
   

   Cold Tire Inflation Pressure:

   
   

   Area	Tire Size	For driving under 160 km/h (100 mph)		For driving at over 160 km/h (100 mph)
   		Front kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)	Rear kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)	Front kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)	Rear kPa (kgf/cm2, psi)
   Europe (Countries that use WVTA)	195/65R15 91H	230 (2.3, 33)*1 270 (2.7 ,39)*2		250 (2.5, 36)
   	205/55R16 91V	220 (2.2, 32)		240 (2.4, 35)
   	215/45R17 87W	230 (2.3, 33)	220 (2.2, 32)	230 (2.3, 33)	220 (2.2, 32)
   Europe (Countries that do not use WVTA)	195/65R15 91H	230 (2.3, 33)		250 (2.5, 36)
   	205/55R16 91V	220 (2.2, 32)		240 (2.4, 35)
   	215/45R17 87W	230 (2.3, 33)	220 (2.2, 32)	230 (2.3, 33)	220 (2.2, 32)
   GCC	205/55R16 91V	220 (2.2, 32)		240 (2.4, 35)

   *1: Standard Pressure
   *2: ECO Pressure
   

2. Using a dial indicator, check the runout of the tires.
   

   Maximum tire runout:

   1.4 mm (0.0551 in.)
   

1. Rotate the tires as shown in the illustration.

1. Inspect and adjust the off-the-car balance.
   

   Maximum imbalance:

   8.0 g (0.0176 lb)
   

   NOTICE:

   1. Use a cleaning detergent to remove dirt, oil and water from the surface where the balance weight is to be adhered.
      
   2. Do not touch the adhesive surface of the tape.
      
   3. Adhere a sticking type balance weight to the flat surface (A) shown in the illustration.
      

      Width (A):

      25 mm (0.984 in.)
      

   4. Push the balance weight securely with your finger to adhere it to the desired position.
      
   5. Do not reuse balance weights.
      

   HINT:

   The inner side balance weight should be installed by clipping it to the rim.
