the ride may be more harsh, and it
would be easier to cause damage
from road hazards, as well as cause
uneven wear.
For the recommended tyre pressures,
please refer to the placard on the
driver's door frame for correct
pressures when the tyres are cold.
Inspection
Every time you check the tyre pressure,
examine the tyres for damage, foreign
objects and abrasion as well.

Replace the tyre if you find damage

tread
Tread wear marks
The tyres have wear marks moulded
into the tread. When the tread wears
down, you will see a wide band
across the tread. This means that
there is less than 1.6 mm of tread left
on the tyre. As for this kind of tyre, it
may give very little adhesive force on
wet roads. Replace the tyre if you see
