Good handling and maximum tire mileage are directly related
to the care of wheels and tires. Regularly inspect wheels and
tires for damage and wear. If handling problems occur, see
1.21 TROUBLESHOOTING or Table 2-7.
See 1.8 TIRES AND WHEELS for tire pressures. Keep tires
inflated to the recommended air pressure. Always balance
the wheel after replacing a tire.

WARNING WARNING
Do not inflate any tire beyond its maximum inflation pres-
sure as specified on tire sidewall. Overinflation may
cause tire to suddenly deflate which could result in death
or serious injury.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Figure 2-4. Checking Tire Inflation Pressure
See Figure 2-4. Check tire inflation pressure at least once
each week. At the same time, inspect tire tread for punctures,
cuts, breaks and other damage. Repeat the inspection before
