Tire wear inspection
1. Tire wear inspection description of function
1. Heavy cornering wear, lack of air pressure, lack
of tire rotation
2. Inaccurate wheel alignment, installing of tires of
unbalanced uniformity
3. Driving wheel abrupt acceleration, excessively
high air pressure
There are many causes of abnormal worn and early worn.
Causes include inappropriate tire air pressure, not rotating
the tires, improper driving practices and poor wheel
alignment. However, the main cause of early worn is
inappropriate tire air pressure.
Early worn of the shoulders of radial tires is notable on
the front tires. Therefore, check the wheel nut tightening
torque after rotating the tires and adjust it to the specified
tire air pressure.
Note:
・ Tire rotation
To make worn uniform and to extend the life of the tires,
tires should be rotated. Either rotate the tires, or check the
wheel alignment.
When worn patterns on the front and rear tires differ.
When tire treads show uneven worn.
When worn on the left front and right front tires differ.
When worn on the left rear and right rear tires differ.
When feather-like threads stick out from worn caused
openings appearing on the ribs or one side of the block at
the treads on the front tires.
When there is spot-like worn.
Caution:
・ After rotating the tires, operate the meter to
reset the maintenance time data.
Note:
・ 4 x 2, 4 x 4, rear dual tire model
