MAINTENANCE & CAR CARE — Wheels & Tyres
Wheel Alignment :
Correct wheel alignment helps to ensure uniform tyre wear. You should
get your car’s wheel alignment checked regularly as per
recommendation.
In case uneven tyre wear is observed, the vehicle’s wheel alignment
should be checked as soon as possible.
Wheel Balancing :
Wheels are balanced at the factory. They may need to be rebalanced
at some time.
The wheels should be checked for balance if a tyre or tube is repaired.
Whenever a tyre or wheel rim is changed, the tyre needs to be balanced.
1. Permissible imbalance for tyre with rim = 95 gm. cm. (max.)
2. Total balance weight should be within 140 gm on each side.
3. Relocate the tyre on the wheel rim if the weight required to balance
is more than 140 gm.
4. Balance weights are available from 5 gm to 140 gm, in steps of 5
gm.
5. Do not use more than one balance weight on one side.
