• On cars used on a race track or in a competitive manner,
special vigilance is required due to the severity of operating
conditions. Careful inspection of all wheels must be carried
out before and after each session. Note: Lotus does not en-
dorse such use of the Evora - refer to the Warranty Booklet
section 2 'Intended Purpose'.

with wheel bearing life, brake cooling, speedo and odometer
calibration, headlamp aim, ground clearance and tire clear-
ance to the body.
• Improperly tightened wheel bolts, or dirt on the wheel to hub
mounting face can cause brake pulsation and judder, and
damage the brake discs. To avoid expensive brake repairs,
ensure complete cleanliness on assembly and tighten the
wheel bolts in a diagonal sequence to the correct torque.
