General Balance Procedures

Deposits of mud, etc. must be cleaned from inside of rim.
WARNING
!
Stones should be removed from the tread in
order to avoid operator injury during spin
balancing and to obtain good balance.
Each tire should be inspected for any damage, then
balanced according to equipment manufacturer's
recommendation.
Off-Vehicle Balancing
Most electronic off-vehicle balancers are more accurate
than the on-vehicle spin balancers. They are easy to use
and give a dynamic (two plane) balance. Although they
do not correct for drum or disc unbalance as does on-
vehicle spin balancing, this is overcome by their
accuracy, usually to within 1/8 ounce.
On-Vehicle Balancing
On-vehicle balancing methods vary with equipment and
tool manufacturers. Be sure to follow each
manufacturer's instructions during balancing operation.
WARNING
!
Wheel spin should be limited to 35 mph (55
km/h) as indicated on speedometer.
This limit is necessary because speedometer
only indicates one-half of actual wheel speed
when one drive wheel is spinning and the
other drive wheel is stopped.
Unless care is taken in limiting drive wheel
spin, spinning wheel can reach excessive
speeds. This can result in possible tire
disintegration or differential failure, which
could cause serious personal injury or
extensive vehicle damage.
CAUTION
!
For vehicle equipped with ABS, using on-
vehicle balancing method with ignition
switch ON may set malfunction diagnostic
trouble code (DTC) of ABS even when system
is in good condition.
Never turn ignition switch ON while spinning
wheel.

Repair Instructions

Tire Rotation

S3RH0A2406001
To equalize wear, rotate tires according to figure. Radial
tires should be rotated periodically. Set tire pressure.
NOTE
Due to their design, radial tires tend to wear
faster in the shoulder area, particularly in
front positions. This makes regular rotation
especially necessary.
[A]: 5-tire rotation
[B]: 4-tire rotation
LH: Left-hand drive
RH: Right-hand drive
NOTE
Applicable to vehicles equipped with 5
tires including spare tire all of which are
identical in size
