When to Check Check your tires once a month or more. Don't forget your compact sparc tire. It should be at 60 psi (420 kPa). How to Check Use a good quality pocket-type gage to check tire pressure.Simply looking at the tires not tell you the pressure, especially i i you have will radial tires -- which may look properly inflated even if they're underinflated. I f your tires have valve caps, be sure to them back on. They help put prevent leaks by keeping out dirt and moisture. Tire Inspection and Rotation Tires should be inspected every 6,000 to 8,000 miles (10 000 to '13000 km) for any signs of unusual wear. If unusual wear is present, rotate your tires as soon as possible and check wheel alignment. Also check for damaged tires or wheels. See "Whenit's Time for New Tires" and "Wheel Replacement" later in this section for more information. The purpose of regular rotation is to achieve more uniform wearfor all tires on the vehicle. The first rotation is the most important. See "Scheduled Maintenance Services" in the Index for scheduled rotation intervals. When rotatingyour tires, always use the correct rotation pattern shown here. Don't include the compact spare tirein your tire rotation. After the tires have been rotated, adjust the front and rear inflation pressures as shown on the Tire-Loading Information label. Make certain that all wheel nuts are properly tightened. See "Wheel Nut Torque" in the Index. 6-44
