For details about the side wall of the
tire and the Certification Label, see
pages 215 and 217.
CAUTION
Observe the following instruc-
tions. Otherwise, an accident
may occur resulting in death or
serious injuries.
D Do not mix radial, bias belted,
or bias−ply tires on your ve-
hicle, as this may cause dan-
gerous handling characteris-
tics resulting in loss of control.
D Do not use tires other than the
manufacturer's recommended
size, as this may cause danger-
ous handling characteristics
resulting in loss of control.
D Four−wheel drive models:
Do not use tires of different
brands, sizes, construction or
tread patterns, as this may
cause dangerous handling
characteristics resulting
loss of control.
Toyota recommends all tires be re-
placed at a time as a set.
See "If you have a flat tire" on page
253 for tire change procedure.
When a tire is replaced, the wheel
should always be balanced.
An unbalanced wheel may affect ve-
hicle handling and tire life. Wheels
can get out of balance with regular
use and should therefore be balanced
occasionally.
When replacing a tubeless tire, the
air valve should also be replaced
with a new one.

in
To equalize the wear and help ex-
tend tire life, Toyota recommends
that you rotate your tires accord-
ing to the maintenance schedule.
(For scheduled maintenance infor-
mation, please refer to the "Sched-
uled Maintenance Guide" or "Own-
er's Manual Supplement".)
However, the most appropriate tim-
ing for tire rotation may vary ac-
cording to your driving habits and
road surface conditions.
See "If you have a flat tire" on page
253 in Section 4 for tire change proce-
dure.
