Balancing Wheels

INFOID:0000000005148246

Removal

1. Using releasing agent, remove double-faced adhesive tape from the wheel.

CAUTION:

• Be careful not to scratch the wheel during removal.

• After removing double-faced adhesive tape, wipe clean traces of releasing agent from the wheel.

Wheel Balance Adjustment

• If a tire balance machine has adhesion balance weight mode settings and drive-in weight mode setting,

select and adjust a drive-in weight mode suitable for wheels.

1. Set wheel on wheel balancer using the center hole as a guide. Start the tire balance machine.
2. When inner and outer imbalance values are shown on the wheel balancer indicator, multiply outer imbal-

ance value by 1.6 to determine balance weight that should be used. Select the outer balance weight with

a value closest to the calculated value and install it to the designated outer position of, or at the desig-

nated angle in relation to the road wheel.

CAUTION:

• Do not install the inner balance weight before installing the outer balance weight.

• Before installing the balance weight, be sure to clean the mating surface of the wheel.

Indicated imbalance value 

× 5/3 = balance weight to be installed

Calculation example:

23 g (0.81 oz) 

× 5/3 = 38.33 g (1.35 oz) = 40 g (1.41 oz) balance

weight (closer to calculated balance weight value)

Note that balance weight value must be closer to the calculated

balance weight value.

Example:

37.4 g = 35 g (1.23 oz)

37.5 g = 40 g (1.41 oz)

a. Install balance weight in the position shown.
b. When installing balance weight to wheels, set it into the grooved

area on the inner wall of the wheel as shown so that the balance

weight center is aligned with the wheel balancer indication posi-

tion (angle).

CAUTION:

• Always use Genuine NISSAN adhesion balance weights.

• Balance weights are not reusable; always replace with

new ones.

• Do not install more than three sheets of balance weights.

c. If calculated balance weight value exceeds 50 g (1.76 oz), install

two balance weight sheets in line with each other as shown.

CAUTION:

Do not install one balance weight sheet on top of another.

3. Start wheel balancer again.
4. Install drive-in balance weight on inner side of road wheel in the

wheel balancer indication position (angle).

CAUTION:

Do not install more than two balance weights.

5. Start wheel balancer. Make sure that inner and outer residual

imbalance values are 5 g (0.18 oz) each or below.

• If either residual imbalance value exceeds 5 g (0.18 oz),

repeat installation procedures.

Wheel balance (Maximum allowable imbalance):

Rotation

INFOID:0000000005148247

NOTE:

Follow the maintenance schedule for tire rotation service intervals. Refer to 

MA-6, "General Maintenance"

 .

1. Rotate the tires on each side from front to back as shown. Do

not include the spare tire when rotating the tires.

CAUTION:

When installing wheels, tighten them diagonally by dividing

the work two to three times in order to prevent the wheels

from developing any distortion.

2. Adjust the tire pressure to specification. Refer to 

WT-52, "Tire"

 .

3. After the tire rotation, retighten the wheel nuts after the vehicle

has been driven for 1,000 km (600 miles), and also after every

wheel and tire have been installed such as after repairing a flat tire.

Transmitter (Pressure Sensor)

INFOID:0000000005148248

REMOVAL

1. Deflate tire. Unscrew transmitter retaining nut and allow transmitter to fall into tire.
2. Gently bounce tire so that transmitter falls to bottom of tire.

Place wheel and tire assembly on tire changing machine and

break both tire beads. Ensure that the transmitter remains at the

bottom of the tire while breaking the bead.

3. Turn tire so that valve hole is at bottom, and gently bounce the

tire to ensure transmitter is near valve hole. Carefully lift tire onto

turntable and position valve hole (and transmitter) 270 degrees

from mounting/dismounting head.

4. Lubricate tire well, and remove top side of tire. Reach inside the

tire and remove the transmitter.

5. Remove the second side of the tire as normal.

INSTALLATION

1. Place first side of tire onto rim.

2. Mount transmitter on rim and tighten nut to specification.
