Compact spare tire replacement
Wheel replacement
(Continued)
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 vehicle 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 mount-
ing a regular size tire.
When replacing the metal wheels for
any reason, make sure the new
wheels are equivalent to the original
factory units in diameter, rim width
and offset.
•
Using tires and wheel other
than the recommended sizes
could cause unusual handling
characteristics and poor vehi-
cle control, resulting in a seri-
ous accident.
Wheels that do not meet
Hyundai's specifications may
fit poorly and result in damage
to the vehicle or unusual han-
dling and poor vehicle control.
WARNING
•
A wheel that is not the correct
size may adversely affect wheel
and bearing life, braking and
stopping
abilities,
handling
characteristics, ground clear-
ance, body-to-tire clearance,
snow
chain
clearance,
speedometer calibration, head-
light aim and bumper height.
