Tires
Maintenance
In addition to proper inflation,
correct wheel alignment helps to
decrease tire wear. If you find a tire
is worn unevenly, have your dealer
check the wheel alignment.
The tires were properly balanced by
the factory. They may need to be
rebalanced at some time before they
are worn out. Have your dealer
check the tires if you feel a consis-
tent vibration while driving. A tire
should always be rebalanced if it is
removed from the wheel for repair.
Make sure the installer balances the
wheels when you have new tires
installed. This increases riding
comfort and tire life. Your car's
original tires were dynamic or "spin"
balanced at the factory. For best
results, have the installer perform a
dynamic balance.
Improper wheel weights can damage
your car's aluminum wheels. Use only
Genuine Acura wheel weights for
balancing.
Tire Rotation
You should not rotate your NSX's
tires. The front wheels are 16"
diameter and the rear wheels are 17"
so they cannot be rotated front-to-
rear. The original-equipment tires on
your NSX have a unidirectional tread
pattern, so they cannot be rotated
side-to-side.
Tire Wear
The tires that came on your NSX
were designed and constructed to
provide superior grip during
acceleration, braking, and cornering.
As a trade-off, they will wear more
rapidly than tires used on ordinary
passenger cars. Because of the car's
weight distribution, and the fact that
they are the driving wheels, you can
expect the rear tires to wear more
rapidly than the front tires.
