Compact spare tire replacement
Wheel replacement
A compact spare tire has a shorter
tread life than a regular one. Replace
it, when a tread wear indicator is
found. A compact spare tire should
be replaced with the one in the same
size as the original one, and should
be installed over a tire wheel of the
same compact size. A compact
spare tire is not designed to be
installed over a wheel of the regular
size, and a compact spare wheel is
not designed for a tire of the regular
size.
When replacing the metal wheels for
any reason, make sure the new
wheels are equivalent to the original
wheel in terms of diameter, rim width
and offset.
i Information
The front tire size is different from the
rear one. While rotating tire positions,
check the size of the tires and wheels.
i Information
A wheel in the different size may
adversely affect the wheel bearing,

Tire traction
Tire traction may decrease when
driving with worn-out or improperly-
inflated tires on a slippery surface.
Tires should be replaced, when a
tread wear indicator appears. Slow
down the driving speed to lower the
risk of losing the vehicle control,
when it rains or snows, or when your
vehicle drives on a icy surface.
