Wheel Alignment And Tire Balance; Tire Replacement - Hyundai 2016 Azera Owner's Manual

Maintenance
Disc brake pads should be inspected
for wear whenever tires are rotated.
Rotate radial tires that have an
asymmetric tread pattern only from
front to rear and not from right to left.
Do not use the compact spare tire for
tire rotation.
WARNING -
Mixing tire
types
Do not mix bias ply and radial ply
tires under any circumstances.
This may cause unusual han-
dling characteristics that could
result in death, severe injury, or
property damage.

Wheel alignment and tire bal-
ance
The wheels on your vehicle were
aligned and balanced carefully at the
factory to give you the longest tire life
and best overall performance.
In most cases, you will not need to
have your wheels aligned again.
However, if you notice unusual tire
wear or your vehicle pulling one way
or the other, the alignment may need
to be reset.
If you notice your vehicle vibrating
when driving on a smooth road, your
wheels may need to be rebalanced.
CAUTION -
Wheel weight
Improper wheel weights can
damage your vehicle's aluminum
wheels. Use only approved wheel
weights.
Tread wear indicator

Tire replacement

If the tire is worn evenly, a tread wear
indicator will appear as a solid band
across the tread. This shows there is
less than 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) of tread
left on the tire. Replace the tire when
this happens.
Do not wait for the band to appear
across the entire tread before replac-
ing the tire.
