During rotation, inspect them for correct
balance.

Do not include (TEMPORARY USE ONLY) 
spare tire in rotation.

Also, inspect them for uneven wear and
damage. Abnormal wear is usually caused
by one or a combination of the following:

l

Incorrect tire pressure

l

Improper wheel alignment

l

Out-of-balance wheel

l

Severe braking

After rotation, inflate all tire pressures to
specification (page 9-7) and inspect the
lug nuts for tightness.
After adjusting the tire pressure,
initialization of the tire pressure
monitoring system is necessary to make
the system operates normally.
Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Initialization on page 4-73.

CAUTION

Rotate unidirectional tires and radial
tires that have an asymmetrical tread
pattern or studs only from front to
rear, not from side to side. Tire
performance will be reduced if
rotated from side to side.

Replacing a Tire

WARNING

Always use tires that are in good
condition:

Driving with worn tires is dangerous.
Reduced braking, steering, and
traction could result in an accident.

Replace all four tires at the same time:

Replacing just one tire is dangerous.
It could cause poor handling and
poor braking resulting in loss of
vehicle control. Mazda strongly
recommends that you replace all four
tires at the same time.

If a tire wears evenly, a wear indicator
will appear as a solid band across the
tread.
Replace the tire when this happens.

Worn tread

You should replace the tire before the
band crosses the entire tread.
After adjusting the tire pressure,
initialization of the tire pressure
monitoring system is necessary to make
the system operates normally.
Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Initialization on page 4-73.
