Tyre Inspection

We recommend that the tyres,
including the spare tyre, if the
vehicle has one, be inspected
for signs of wear or damage at
least once a month.
Replace the tyre if:
The indicators at three or
more places around the tyre
can be seen.
There is cord or fabric
showing through the tyre's
rubber.
The tread or sidewall is
cracked, cut, or snagged
deep enough to show cord or
fabric.
The tyre has a bump, bulge,
or split.
The tyre has a puncture, cut,
or other damage that cannot
be repaired well because of
the size or location of the
damage.

Tyre Rotation

The tyres should be rotated at
the intervals specified in the
Maintenance Schedule. See
Scheduled Maintenance 0 294.
Tyres are rotated to achieve
uniform wear for all tyres. The
first rotation is the most
important.
Anytime unusual wear is
noticed, rotate the tyres as soon
as possible, check for proper
tyre inflation pressure, and
check for damaged tyres or
wheels. If the unusual wear
continues after the rotation,
check the wheel alignment.
Vehicle Care
See When It Is Time for New
Tyres 0 264 and Wheel
Replacement 0 268.
Different tyre sizes should not
be rotated front to rear.
Use this rotation pattern if the
vehicle has different size tires
on the front and rear.
Adjust the front and rear tyres to
the recommended inflation
pressure on the Tyre and
Loading Information label after
the tyres have been rotated.
See Tyre Pressure 0 258 and
Vehicle Load Limits 0 168.
