Replacing a Tire

WARNING

Worn Tires:
Driving with worn tires is dangerous.
Reduced braking, steering, and
traction could result in an accident.
Always use tires that are in good
condition.

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 it before the band is
across the entire tread.

NOTE

Tires degrade over time, even when
they are not being used on the road. It is
recommended that tires generally be
replaced when they are 6 years or older.
Heat caused by hot climates or frequent
high loading conditions can accelerate
the aging process. You should replace
the spare tire when you replace the
other road tires due to the aging of the
spare tire. Regarding the manufacturing
week and year is indicated with 4 digit.
Refer to The tire labeling on page 9-18.

q

Temporary Spare Tire

Inspect the temporary spare tire at least
monthly to make sure it's properly inflated
and stored.

NOTE

The temporary spare tire condition
gradually deteriorates even if it has not
been used.

The temporary spare tire is easier to
handle because of its construction. It is
lighter and smaller than a conventional
tire and should be used only for an
emergency and only for a short distance.

Use the temporary only until the
conventional tire is repaired, which should
be as soon as possible.

Maintain its pressure at 420 kPa (4.2
kgf/cm

or bar, 60 psi).
