TIRES
• Radial runout (1) of more than 1.5 mm (.060
inch) measured at the center line of the tread
may cause the vehicle to shake.
• Lateral runout (2) of more than 1.0 mm (.040
inch) measured near the shoulder of the tire may
cause the vehicle to shake.
Sometimes radial runout can be reduced. Relocate the
wheel and tire assembly on the mounting bolts (See
Method 1). If this does not reduce runout to an
acceptable level, the tire can be rotated on the wheel.
(See Method 2).
METHOD 1 (RELOCATE WHEEL ON HUB)
1. Drive the vehicle a short distance to eliminate tire
flat spotting from a parked position.
2. Check the wheel bearings and adjust or replace if
necessary.
3. Check the rear wheel mounting surface of the
wheel hub.
4. Relocate the wheel on the mounting surface of the
wheel hub (1), two bolts over from the original posi-
tion.
5. To eliminate possible brake distortion, torque wheel
bolts to proper specifications. Tighten the wheel
bolts to 110 N·m (81 ft. lbs.).
