TIRE TRACTION
The original tires on your car have tread wear
indicators. The tread wear indicators appear
when the tread depth is 0.06 in. (1.6 mm). The
tire should be replaced when these appear as a
solid bar across two or more grooves of the
tread. Always replace your tires with those of
the recommended size. If you change wheels,
the new wheel's rim width and offset must meet
Hyundai specification.
Tire traction can be reduced if you drive on
worn tires, tires that are improperly inflated or
on slippery road surfaces. Tires should be re-
placed when tread wear indicators appear. To
reduce the possibility of losing control, slow
down whenever there is rain, snow or ice on the
road.

WHEN TO REPLACE TIRES
o
Using tires and wheels of other than the
recommended sizes could cause unusu-
al handling characteristics that could
cause death, serious injury, or property
damage.
Wheels that do not meet Hyundai's di-
mensional specifications may fit poorly
and result in damage to the vehicle, in-
cluding broken wheel studs.
WARNING:
0.06 in. (1.6 mm)
When rotating the 215/45 R17 tires, the tires
must be mount following the "ROTATION"
direction marked on the sidewall of the tires.
If rotating the tires from the left side to the
right side and from the right side to the left
side, separate the wheel from the tire and
then remount them.

TIRE BALANCING
HGK248
A tire that is out of balance may affect handling
and tire wear. The tires on your Hyundai were
balanced before the car was delivered but may
need balancing again during the years you own
the car.
Whenever a tire is dismounted for repair, it
should be rebalanced before being reinstalled
on the car.
WARNING:
Driving on worn-out tires is dangerous!
Worn-out tires can cause loss of braking
effectiveness, steering control and traction.
When replacing tires, never mix radial and
bias ply tires on the same car. If you replace
radial tires with bias-ply tires, they must be
installed in sets of four.
