UNEVEN WEAR
At least once a month, inspect your tyres closely for signs of uneven wear. Uneven wear patterns may be caused by improper inflation pressures, misalignment, improper balance, or suspension neglect. If not corrected, further tyre damage will occur. If you discover uneven wear, bring your car to your nearest Nitto dealer. In many instances, the dealer can correct the problem so you can continue to use your tyres.
EXCESSIVE WEAR
When the tread is worn down to 1.6mm on any part of the tread, the tyre is worn out and it is time to replace it. Built-in treadwear indicators, or "wear bars," which look like narrow strips of smooth rubber across the tread, will appear on the tyre when that point of wear is reached.
OTHER THINGS TO LOOK FOR
- Look for any stones, bits of glass, metal, or other foreign objects in the tread or sidewall. These may work deeper into the tyre and cause air loss.
- If any tyre continually needs more air, have your Nitto dealer check to find out why it is leaking. Damage to the tyre, wheel, or valve may be the problem.
