The compact spare tire is intended for limited use only and is not included in the tire rotation.
Also, visually inspect your tires for uneven tread wear and damage. Abnormal tire wear is usually caused by one or a combination of the following:.
- Incorrect air pressure in tires.
- Wheel alignment angles are incorrect.
- Wheel imbalance.
- Heavy braking.
Warning! It is dangerous to operate a vehicle with worn tires. Reduced braking efficiency, poor vehicle control, and poor tire grip may result in a traffic accident.
When the tire wears evenly, wear indicators appear on the tread in the form of smooth transverse stripes. In this case, replace the tires.
Worn tires should be replaced before the wear indicator appears across the entire tread width.
