< PERIODIC MAINTENANCE >

ROAD WHEEL

• When installing balance weight (1) to road wheels, set it into

the grooved area (A) on the inner wall of the road wheel as
shown in the figure so that the balance weight center (B) is
aligned with the tire balance machine indication position
(angle) (C).

CAUTION:

• Always use genuine NISSAN balance weights.
• Balance weights are non-reusable; always replace with

new ones.

• Never install three or more sheets of balance weight.

c.

If calculated balance weight value exceeds 50 g (1.76 oz), install
two balance weight sheets in line with each other as shown in
the figure.

CAUTION:

Never install one balance weight sheet on top of another.

3.

Start the tire balance machine again.

4.

Install drive-in balance weight on inner side of road wheel in the tire balance machine indication position
(angle).

CAUTION:

Never install three or more balance weight.

5.

Start the tire balance machine. Check that the inner and outer residual unbalance value is within the
allowable unbalance value.

CAUTION:

If either residual unbalance value exceeds limit, repeat installation procedures.

ADJUSTMENT (STEEL WHEEL)

Preparation Before Adjustment

Remove balance weight from the road wheel.

Wheel Balance Adjustment

• The details of the adjustment procedure are different for each model of wheel balancer. Therefore, refer to

each instruction manual. 

• 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 steel wheels.

1.

Set road wheel to wheel balancer, and then start wheel balancer. 

2.

Install balance weight to road wheel according to the unbalance and position (angle) displayed on wheel
balancer. 

CAUTION:

• Never install three or more balance weights on one side. 
• Always use genuine NISSAN balance weights.
• Balance weights are non-reusable; always replace with new ones.
• Always use a plastic hammer when attaching the weight. 

3.

Start the tire balance machine. Check that the inner and outer residual unbalance value is within the
allowable unbalance value.

CAUTION:

If either residual unbalance value exceeds limit, repeat installation procedures.

Tire Rotation

INFOID:0000000009653454

• Follow the maintenance schedule for tire rotation service intervals.

Refer to 

MA-4, "Explanation of General Maintenance"

.

• When installing the wheel, tighten wheel nuts to the specified

torque. Refer to 

WT-46, "Exploded View"

.

CAUTION:

• Never include the T-type spare tire when rotating the tires.
• When installing wheels, tighten them diagonally by dividing

the work two to three times in order to prevent the wheels
from developing any distortion.

• Be careful not to tighten wheel nut at torque exceeding the

criteria.

• Use NISSAN genuine wheel nut.

• Perform the ID registration, after tire rotation. Refer to 

WT-23, "Work Procedure"

.

Check wheels for deformation, cracks and other damage. If deformed, remove wheel and check wheel
runout.

a.

Remove tire from aluminum wheel and mount on a tire balance machine.

b.

Set dial indicator as shown in the figure.

c.

Check runout, if the axial runout (A) or radial runout (B) exceeds
the limit, replace aluminum wheel.

2.

Check wheels for deformation, cracks and other damage. If deformed, remove wheel and check wheel
runout.

a.

Remove tire from steel wheel and mount wheel on a tire balance machine.

b.

Set two dial indicators as shown in the illustration.

c.

Set each dial indicator to “0”.

d.

Rotate wheel and check dial indicators at several points around
the circumference of the wheel.

e.

Calculate runout at each point as shown below.

f.

Select maximum positive runout value and the maximum nega-
tive value. Add the two values to determine total runout.

CAUTION:

In case a positive or negative value is not available, use the
maximum value (negative or positive) for total runout.

g.

If the total runout value exceeds limit, replace steel wheel.
