2. Mount the wheel so that the wheel bolts line up
with the bolt holes in the disc wheel. Then,
tighten the wheel nuts to hold the disc wheel in
position. If the wheel nut has a spherical end ,
direct the spherical end toward the disc wheel.
NOTE:
• The wheel bolts and nuts on the right-hand
wheels have right-hand threads, and those on
the left-hand wheels have left-hand threads.
The bolts and nuts have stamped marks for
easy identification; an “R” mark for right-hand
wheels and an “L” mark for left-hand wheels.
WARNING
• If the above items are dirty, the nuts will
become loose during vehicle operation. If
wheel bolt or nut threads are damaged or
the disc wheel is cracked or otherwise
damaged, replace the wheel with a new
genuine part. A damaged wheel could
work loose and cause a serious accident
while the vehicle is in motion.
• Do not paint disc wheel mounting sur-
faces, dual wheel mating surfaces, wheel
nut seating surfaces, and wheel hub
mounting surfaces as resulting thicker
paint film could cause the wheel nuts to
loosen up.
• Be sure to use the specified type of tires.
Mixing bias and radial tires results in poor
steering and should be avoided at all
costs.
WARNING
When replacing the wheel, take care not to
damage the threads on the wheel bolts and
inner wheel nuts.
