WARNING
When replacing wheels
■
Do not use wheels that are a different
●
size from those recommended in the
Owner's Manual, as this may result in a
loss of handling control.
Never use an inner tube in a leaking
●
wheel which is designed for a tubeless
tire. Doing so may result in an acci-
dent, causing death or serious injury.
NOTICE
Replacing tire pressure warning
■
valves and transmitters
Because tire repair or replacement
●
may affect the tire pressure warning
valves and transmitters, make sure to
have tires serviced by your Lexus
dealer or other qualified service shop.
In addition, make sure to purchase
your tire pressure warning valves and
transmitters at your Lexus dealer.
Ensure that only genuine Lexus wheels
●
are used on your vehicle.
Tire pressure warning valves and trans-
mitters may not work properly with
non-genuine wheels.
Aluminum wheel precautions
Use only Lexus wheel nuts and
wrenches designed for use with
your aluminum wheels.
When rotating, repairing or chang-
ing your tires, check that the wheel
nuts are still tight after driving 1600
km (1000 miles).
Be careful not to damage the alumi-
num wheels when using tire chains.
Use only Lexus genuine balance
weights or equivalent and a plastic
RC350-RC300_OM_General_OM24884E
6-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
or rubber hammer when balancing
your wheels.
