Caution: To avoid damaging the protective varnish layer, do not allow tire shop workers to clean the outer surface of the rim with a wire brush or remove adhesive balancing weights with a screwdriver when replacing them.
1. If wheels have been rearranged, replaced or repaired, check the reliability of the lug nuts after the first 1,600 km.
2. Use wheel nuts and wrench specifically designed for aluminum wheels.
3. When balancing wheels, use special weights for aluminum wheels, as well as a plastic or rubber hammer.
4. Periodically check aluminum wheels for damage (cracks and chips). If there is damage, replace the wheel immediately.
5. When replacing tires with a directional tread pattern, check that they are installed correctly.
