speedometer/odometer calibration,
stopping ability, headlight aim,
bumper height, vehicle ground
clearance and tire or tire chain
clearance on the body and chassis.
Replacement with "used" wheels is
not advised. They may have been
subjected to harsh treatment or very
high mileage and could fail without
warning.
Warning
Consult your dealer before
replacing wheels. Never use
wheels that are not designed for
the vehicle. Doing so would
impede safe vehicle operation.
The use of wheels and/or tires with
higher load carrying limits than
originally equipped on your vehicle
does not in itself increase the
GAWR or the GVWR of the vehicle.
Replacement wheels can be
obtained from the authorized dealer
or tire dealer.
Checking Tires
Air Pressure
Too low or too high a tire air
pressure not only affects the ride or
causes damage to the cargo but
also causes abnormal heat buildup,
premature wear, a tire puncture,
or may even cause the tire to burst.
Vehicle Care
Use an appropriate tire air pressure
gauge when measuring the air
pressure of a tire. Tire air pressure
should be measured when the tire is
cold, or before the vehicle is driven.
(After driving, tire air pressure
increases by about 10%.)
As the tire air pressure varies
depending on the vehicle model and
tire size, refer to the VIN and weight
rating plate for diesel engines or the
Vehicle Certification and
Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions
Plate for gas engines on the
driver's door opening frame or the
tire air pressure information on the
following table.
