Changing wheels

When replacing wheels is not recommended to change the direction of rotation of the tire, as grinding is achieved very significant tire wear.

Explicit wear of the front tires is recommended to swap the front and rear wheels. Thus, all the tires have the same lifetime.

When tightening the wheel nuts should always use a torque wrench. This ensures a uniform tightening of bolts.

Do not replace one tire. At least, just replace both tires on the same axle. At the same tire with a good profile always set forward.

When replacing or removing tubeless tires is recommended to replace the rubber valve.

Remove the wheel trim flat end key for wheel nuts. Before removal mark the position of the wheels relative to the hub chalk to the wheel can be installed in the same position. Cast light wheels protected against corrosion by a transparent varnish. When replacing wheels make sure that the protective coating is not damaged, otherwise embellish with varnish. To cast light drives use only provided for them nuts. If the vehicle is fitted cast light wheels, while the spare wheel has a steel disc, it is recommended to have a car in the corresponding nuts for steel wheels. Clear contaminated nuts and threads. Tighten the wheel nuts crosswise in several passes. Because of the one-way wheel nut tightening and / or hub may become distorted. The tightening torque of the wheel nuts is 100 Nm for steel and cast light for the drive.
