Replace the tires if the treadwear indi-
cators are showing on a tire.
■
When to replace your vehicle’s
tires
Tires should be replaced if:
●
The treadwear indicators are showing
on a tire.
●
You have tire damage such as cuts,
splits, cracks deep enough to expose
the fabric, and bulges indicating inter-
nal damage
●
A tire goes flat repeatedly or cannot
be properly repaired due to the size or
location of a cut or other damage
If you are not sure, consult with your
Toyota dealer.
■
Tire life
Any tire over 6 years old must be
checked by a qualified technician even if
it has seldom or never been used or
damage is not obvious.
■
Low profile tires (17-inch tires)
Generally, low profile tires will wear
more rapidly and tire grip performance
will be reduced on snowy and/or icy
roads when compared to standard tires.
Be sure to use snow tires or tire chains
on snowy and/or icy roads and drive
carefully at a speed appropriate for road
and weather conditions.
■
If the tread on snow tires wears
down below 4 mm (0.16 in.)
The effectiveness of the tires as snow
tires is lost.
■
Checking the tire valves
When replacing the tires, check the tire
valves for deformation, cracks, and
other damage.
WARNING
■
When inspecting or replacing
tires
Observe the following precautions to
prevent accidents.
Failure to do so may cause damage
to parts of the drive train as well as
dangerous handling characteristics,
which may lead to an accident result-
ing in death or serious injury.
●
Do not mix tires of different makes,
models or tread patterns.
Also, do not mix tires of remarkably
different treadwear.
●
Do not use tire sizes other than
those recommended by Toyota.
●
Do not mix differently constructed
tires (radial, bias-belted or bias-ply
tires).
●
Do not mix summer, all season and
snow tires.
●
Do not use tires that have been
used on another vehicle.
Do not use tires if you do not know
how they were used previously.
NOTICE
■
Low profile tires (17-inch tires)
Low profile tires may cause greater
damage than usual to the tire wheel
when sustaining impact from the road
surface. Therefore, pay attention to
the following:
●
Be sure to use proper tire inflation
pressure. If tires are under-inflated,
they may be damaged more
severely.
●
Avoid potholes, uneven pavement,
curbs and other road hazards. Fail-
ure to do so may lead to severe tire
and wheel damage.
