(2) Tire pressure adjustment method when warm:

Adjust the tire pressure so that the displayed value is equal to the set pressure.
Perform initialization and check that initialization completes.
HINT:

Check and record the value of the Data List item "Temperature in Tire". (Ts)
Check and record the ambient temperature during tire pressure adjustment. (Tm)
Readjust the tire pressure according to the difference between the tire internal temperature (Ts) and the ambient temperature (Tm). (P)
HINT:

Tire internal temperature: Ts, Ambient temperature: Tm, Tire pressure readjustment value: P

P = (Specified Pressure) + (Ts - Tm)
Check the pressure adjustment value with the Data List item "Tire Inflation Pressure".

Maximum Wheel Imbalance:

Specified Condition	Result
8.0 g 0.0176 lb	g lb

Specified Condition

Result

8.0 g

0.0176 lb

HINT:

Use clip-on type balance weights for both the inner and outer side.

(2) for Alloy Wheel:

Maximum Wheel Imbalance:

Specified Condition

Result

8.0 g

0.0176 lb

NOTICE:

Use a cleaning detergent to remove dirt, oil and water from the surface where the balance weight is to be adhered.
Do not touch the adhesive surface of the balance weight.
Adhere a stick-on type balance weight to the flat surface*a shown in the illustration.
Push the balance weight with your finger to securely adhere it to the desired position.
Do not reuse balance weights.
Use only TOYOTA genuine stick-on type balance weights or equivalent.

HINT:

Use stick-on type balance weights for both the inner and outer side.

*a	25 mm (0.984 in.)

(b) If the tires vibrate even after the off-the-car balance adjustment, adjust the wheel balance with on-the-car balancing as necessary.

PROCEDURE

1. INSTALL WHEEL ASSEMBLY

NOTICE:

Only use axle hub nuts that are compatible with the wheel. If incompatible axle hub nuts are used, the contact surface of the wheel and axle hub nut may become deformed or damaged. This may result in looseness or loss of one or more axle hub nuts, even if they are tightened to the correct torque.
Check that there is no foreign matter or rust on the axle hub bolts and the contact surfaces of the wheel, brake disc, axle hub, etc. Clean the contact surfaces and axle hub bolts if necessary. If a wheel assembly is installed with foreign matter or rust between the contact surfaces, the foreign matter or rust may work loose. This may result in looseness or loss of one or more axle hub nuts, even if they are tightened to the correct torque.
When installing the axle hub nuts, clean the axle hub bolts with non-residue solvent and check that the axle hub nuts rotate smoothly by hand. If the axle hub nuts do not rotate smoothly, check that there is no foreign matter or rust and clean if necessary. If the axle hub nuts still do not rotate smoothly, replace the axle hub nuts and axle hub bolts with new ones.
