Tires (cont'd) Tire Balancing Unbalanced tires may affect handling and tire wear. A tire should always be rebalanced after it has been dismounted from the wheel. Your original tires were properly balanced before the car left the factory, but may need rebalancing at some time during the life of the tire. Tire balancing for the COMPACT spare is not necessary. CAUTION: Use only Genuine Honda aluminum wheel weights if your car is equipped with aluminum wheels. Non genuine Honda wheel weights may corrode and damage the aluminum wheel. Tire Rotation Tires may wear unevenly when used for a long time in the same position on the car. To avoid this, rotate the tires every 7,500 miles (12,000 km). If abnormal or uneven wear develops between rotations, the cause should be found and corrected as soon as possible. The illustration shows how the tires can be rotated. The COMPACT spare tire must not be included in tire rotation. NOTE: Brake pads should be inspected for wear whenever the tires are rotated. Front Tire Traction Worn tires or slippery road surfaces can reduce driving, cornering and braking traction. To reduce the possibility of losing traction, slow down when the road gets slippery, replace tires when wear indicators are visible, and KEEP TIRES PROPERLY INFLATED.

Tires (cont'd)
Tire Balancing
Unbalanced tires may affect handling and tire wear. A tire should
always be rebalanced after it has been dismounted from the wheel.
Your original tires were properly balanced before the car left the
factory, but may need rebalancing at some time during the life of the
tire. Tire balancing for the COMPACT spare is not necessary.
CAUTION:
Use only Genuine Honda aluminum wheel weights if your car is
equipped
with
aluminum
wheels.
Non
genuine
Honda
wheel
weights may corrode and damage the aluminum wheel.
Tire Rotation
Tires
may wear unevenly when
used for a
long time
in the same
position on the car. To avoid this, rotate the tires every 7,500 miles
(12,000
km).
If
abnormal
or
uneven
wear
develops
between
rotations, the cause should be found and corrected as soon as
possible. The illustration shows how the tires can be rotated. The
COMPACT spare tire must not be included in tire rotation.
NOTE:
Brake pads should be inspected for wear whenever the tires are
rotated.
Tire Traction
Worn tires or slippery road surfaces can reduce driving, cornering
and braking traction. To reduce the possibility of losing traction,
slow down when the road gets slippery, replace tires when wear
indicators are visible, and KEEP TIRES PROPERLY INFLATED.
