Pre-Alignment Checks

For proper inspection and adjustment of the wheel alignment, do these checks:

  1. Release the parking brake to avoid an incorrect measurement.
  2. Make sure the suspension is not modified.
  3. Check the tire size and tire pressure.

    Tire size: P235/70R16 104S 

    Tire pressure: 220 kPa (2.2 kgf/cm 2  , 32 psi), cold 

  4. Check the runout of the wheels and tires.
  5. Check the suspension ball joints. (Hold a wheel with your hands, and move it up and down and right and left to check for wobbling.)
