MAINTENANCE
WHEEL ALIGNMENT AND
COMPACT SPARE TIRE
REPLACEMENT
TIRE BALANCE
In addition to proper tire inflation,
correct wheel alignment helps to
minmize tire wear. Your vehicle’s
alignment should be checked every 12
months or 24,000 km (15,000 miles).
Your tires were properly balanced at the
factory, but they may need to be
rebalanced before they wear out. If you
notice a consistent vibration when
driving, have your Kia Dealer inspect
your tires. A tire should always be
rebalanced if it has been removed from
the wheel.
A compact spare tire has a shorter tread
life than a regular size tire. Replace it
when you can see the tread wear indicator
bars on the tire. The replacement compact
spare tire should be the same size and
design tire as the one provided with your
new Kia and should be mounted on the
same compact spare tire wheel. The
compact spare tire is not designed to be
mounted on a regular size wheel, and the
compact spare tire wheel is not designed
for mounting a regular size tire.
